==Production notes== | |||
*The name ''Road to Voi'' alludes to the appearances of [[Tsavo highway (location)|Tsavo Highway]] and [[Voi]] in ''[[Halo 3]]''. | |||
*John Mayer's involvement was kept a secret by Martin O'Donnell until the [[2014]] documentary ''[[Remaking the Legend]]''. According to O'Donnell, there was no contractual agreement between the parties, and neither Microsoft nor Mayer's agent were aware of his contribution. Mayer wanted to keep it a secret so he could tell his friends he was featured in the game.{{Ref/Reuse|rtl}} | |||
