__TOC__ | |||
==Summary== | ==Summary== | ||
Gemini is somewhat of an unusual level, as it consists of a closed-quarters outside area and an open inside area. Teleporters can warp players up to two small balconies on the top of the inner area. Another teleporter warps players to the outside and back. There is a wide array of weapons from close ranged [[Type-25 Brute Shot|Brute Shots]] and the [[Type-1 energy sword|energy sword]], to [[Type-51 carbine|carbines]] and a [[Type-50 particle beam rifle|beam rifle]]. An [[Overshield]] can be found in front of the [[San'Shyuum|Prophet]] statue. | |||
Another interesting feature is the addition of doors. It is rare to find classic doors in a multiplayer level like this; Gemini is in fact the only multiplayer map that features these doors. | |||
The statue of the in about the middle of the map appears to be of the [[Prophet of Truth]] and is near what appears to be a natural tree. Outside, the map features five [[Covenant]] [[Type-52 Phantom|Phantom]] docks and what appears to be another tree. In the background behind the Phantom docks you can see the [[Anodyne Spirit]] in the center of the city. | |||
It is possible to get below the level and explore the city.<ref>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kvt020_l9iU</ref><ref>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2bZnqjHy6WQ </ref> | |||

*Gemini can be spotted in Campaign mode in ''Halo 2''. On the level [[Gravemind (level)|Gravemind]], when you exit the High Council Chamber and get near where [[Thel 'Vadam]] was tortured, look to the left, and in between the two giant towers with the eye-shaped purple design, you will see a smaller tower with the exact shape as the Gemini map. | *Gemini can be spotted in Campaign mode in ''Halo 2''.

*Gemini is the only multiplayer level in the Halo Trilogy in which you can see the Forerunner Dreadnought. | |||
*The tree in the center of the map bears a striking resemblance to the tree seen in the multiplayer level [[Warlock]] and the ''Halo 2'' campaign levels [[Delta Halo (level)|Delta Halo]] and [[Regret (level)|Regret]]. It is unclear, however, if the tree in Gemini and the trees on [[Delta Halo (level)|Delta Halo]] are the same species. | |||
