''Hang 'Em High' | '''Hang 'Em High''' is a [[multiplayer]] map in [[Halo: Combat Evolved]]. It is one of the most enjoyed and most played multiplayer map in Halo: Combat Evolved, and has been remade for other games, such as Valve's Counter-Strike, by dedicated players using creation engines. It is best for large groups of players, as it can become too hard for 1v1 or 2v2. It is recommended to have the settings on this map at least 5 vs. 5, due to the various hiding spots and sniping spots. The recommended playing settings for weapons is snipers. Hang 'Em High is called "The king of ''Halo'' maps..." by [[Bungie]] themselves. | ||
*''Hang 'Em High'' was remade into the map ''[[Tombstone (Level)|Tombstone]]'', for the [[Xbox]] version of ''[[Halo 2]]''. | |||

*Hang 'Em High is a large storage facility on [[Installation 04]], which provides an excellent location for all sorts of scenarios. The [[SRS99C-S2 AM|Sniper Rifle]] and [[M19 SSM|Rocket Launcher]] are located on the catwalks above, and are well worth the risk. Meanwhile, the Shotguns spawn in the shelters on either side of the maps, so spin through these areas occasionally during your exploration. For ball games, try controlling the areas around the "Shotgun gallery," as there are only two ways in and out. | |||

*In Season 2 of [[Red vs. Blue]], Hang 'Em High was used as a metaphor of Caboose's Mind. | |||
*In Season 2 of | *[[Flood]] screeches can be heard quite distinctively in the background if you listen quietly. This suggests that the map is set after the [[Covenant]] breached the [[Flood Containment Facilities]]. | ||
