*The Energy Sword does not appear in [[Halo 3: ODST]], making one of the five weapons from ''[[Halo 3]]'' not to appear in [[Halo 3: ODST]]. The other weapons are Battle Rifle, the Sentinel Beam, the Blue Sentinel Beam, and the Elite [[Plasma Rifle]] is replaced by the [[Brute Plasma Rifle]]. The reasons why the Energy Sword does not appear in [[Halo 3: ODST]] is due to being no Elites in the game. Though, near the deceased body of a Sangheili, one can find a depleted Energy Sword.

*The Energy Sword in Halo 2 can be used to cut the corpses of flood combat forms so that they cannot be re-infected by infection forms. The cutting process drains 2.5% battery. However, even a sword without any battery left can be used cut combat form corpses.
