*When getting out of the elevator, look to your left. There should be a trash can. Get on top of it and jump. If you keep on jumping, sometimes you will hear dead [[Kig-yar|Jackal]] noises.

*Using the Bandanna Skull in Halo 2 Anniversary will allow the player to throw grenades during this mission, allowing for easy manipulation of the objects in the room. By sticking the Gunnery Sergeant with a plasma grenade, you can cause him to run around frantically. The player can also use grenades to knock Johnson out of the elevator, though this will cause the level to become impassable as the tram will not move without him. | *Using the Bandanna Skull in Halo 2 Anniversary will allow the player to throw grenades during this mission, allowing for easy manipulation of the objects in the room.

*[[Avery Junior Johnson|Johnson]]'s line, "That, or he can hide behind me", is possibly an allusion to the fact that he cannot be killed at any point in the game. However, as he only appears in-game in the first section and near the first airlock in ''[[Cairo Station]]'', the first part of ''[[Outskirts]]'', and the last section of ''[[The Great Journey]]'', it is more likely to be a testament to Johnson's overwhelming sense of self confidence. | *[[Avery Junior Johnson|Johnson]]'s line, "That, or he can hide behind me", is possibly an allusion to the fact that he cannot be killed at any point in the game.
