Glitches

Glitches are either errors or bugs in any program (game, software, etc.) that can cause undesired or interesting results. In relation to Halo, glitches can be exploited in many ways to make the game interesting or annoying.

Halo: Combat Evolved Examples

In Halo: Combat Evolved, the word "Glitch" has been replaced with the word Stunt. There are over 10,000 Stunts, or for that case, glitches, in Halo: PC. In the xbox version of Halo: Combat Evolved, there are equal if not more stunts. However, the major difference between Halo: PC and Halo for Xbox, is that the PC version has barriers arround the levels which make Location stunts easier. The xbox version also has the option of co-op, which allows certain campaign stunts to be done. It also makes Campaign Launching far more easier.

Halo 2 Examples

In Halo 2, many glitches resulted from unforeseen actions the developers did not think could occur. Players could do things such as Super Jumping or Super Bouncing, get past Invisible Walls to get out of maps, etc. "Button Combos" also existed, such as one that would allow you to kill a player instantly.

Halo 3 Examples

Halo 3 has been greatly combed over for glitches by a considerable amount of players, but Bungie has put way too much effort into making sure that there are few, if any, in Halo 3. There are a few that do exist in active gameplay though, such as the Mine Glitches, floating objects, driving an AA Wraith, going under the playable area of Construct, fusion coil glitches, making Elephants fly, and the Elephant speed boost..
