It is one of the most played multi player map in Halo: Combat Evolved, and has been remade for other games, such as Valve's Counter-Strike, by dedicated players using creation engines.

*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. | *Hang 'Em High is a large storage facility on [[Installation 04]], which provides an excellent location for all sorts of scenarios.

*This map is a sniper's dream; if you can grab the Sniper Rifle on the platform by jumping from the high bridge, you can stand in the shotgun galley (not recommended as people can throw grenades at you or jar your aim with bursts from Assault Rifles), the top of blue base, or red team's tower base, and decimate anyone who tries to cross the open spaces, sides, or bridges, making it very hard for enemies to reach your flag. | *This map is a sniper's dream; if you can grab the Sniper Rifle on the platform by jumping from the high bridge, you can stand in the shotgun galley (not recommended as people can throw grenades at you or jar your aim with bursts from Assault Rifles), the top of blue base, or red team's tower base, and decimate anyone who tries to cross the open spaces, sides, or bridges, making it very hard for enemies to reach your flag. | ||
