* '''Weapons system:''' ''Halo''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s weapons system is unusual in two respects.  First, it allows one to carry only two weapons at any given time, forcing the player to switch weapons often and make trade-offs when choosing which weapons to carry. Second, ''Halo'' has an independent button for throwing [[grenade|grenades]].

* '''Artificial intelligence:''' ''Halo''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s AI was quite sophisticated for its time. For example, the more cowardly types of enemies would panic when one of their superiors was killed. If a speeding vehicle came at them, they could dive out of the way, and they could take cover from explosives or suppressive fire.

'''[[Blood Gulch]]''' is one of the most commonly played multiplayer levels. The level contains two buildings at either end of the level, with open desert in between. Some of the features include a cave, in which experienced players may store vehicles, and cliffs that players can use to snipe their opponents. This level is also the location for the situation comedy [[Red vs Blue]]. A revamped version of [[Blood Gulch]] reappears in the sequel, [[Halo 2]] under the name [[Coagulation]], and there are some similarities, but the general map size is increased, with added use of caves, under ground sections of the bases, new hills and mounds to make the terrain more interesting, and the inclusion of the Banshee.
