 *Completing this level with four people over Xbox Live on Legendary with the Iron skull on and all 4 players in a [[Ghost (Vehicle)|Ghost]], will make the player achieve the Vidmaster Challenge: Annual Achievement.
 *Cortana's line, "But you did it. Truth and the Covenant...The Flood, It's finished," may be a reference to one of her lines from the end of the first Halo -- "We did what we had to do ... for Earth. An entire Covenant armada obliterated, and the Flood ... we had no choice. Halo ... It's finished."  In the first game, the Chief denies it, while in the third game, he agrees.
-*In the beginning of the level, the Arbiter passes an Assault Rifle to the Chief in the cut scene. However, if the player got to this level by completing the level Cortana right before, the player will start with what ever weapon he/she took from that level.
+*In the beginning of the level, Thel 'Vadam passes an Assault Rifle to the Chief in the cut scene. However, if the player got to this level by completing the level Cortana right before, the player will start with what ever weapon he/she took from that level.
 *Another nod to the original Halo: CE game, in the campaign lobby the Mission Start is labeled "[[Assault on the Control Room]]".
-*Whenever you get on the [[Warthog]] in single player, the [[Arbiter (character)|Arbiter]] will disappear from his current position and then appear on the Warthog turret, apparently using lightning-fast movement and Active Camouflage (you can see him fade in). If you take the gunner position and then get in the driver position, the Arbiter takes the passenger seat. It is possible to "kill" the Arbiter, by driving the Warthog off a cliff, and quickly taking another vehicle, like the Mongoose. The Arbiter will not respawn on the back, and you can finish the level without him.  It is also possible that he will respawn on the backseat of the mongoose, but it is rare.

-*The [[Halo 3 Skulls|Mythic Skull]] can be found in this level. If you are playing single player, you can give the skull to The Arbiter and he will use it to attack the Flood.

 *The last part of game play on this level is a remake of the Warthog escape on [[The Maw]], the last level of the first game, only it is slightly more complex then the original Warthog Run. Also, instead of being on a set timer, the ground will fall out from under you if you linger too long, and the timer varies depending on the player triggering certain checkpoints while on . Something to note, when on one of the circular platforms (on Online Co-op, your friends will respawn, and a Warthog should wait there), the platform will not fall until you start traveling around.
 *Oddly, even though ''[[High Charity]]'' is destroyed and there are no Flood controlled ships in system, Flood Dispersal Pods somehow fall from the sky. It is possible that they came from the location where Gravemind is rebuilding himself on the ring.

 *This level, and Truth's death cinematic are the only times you see Johnson without a cap on in ''Halo 3'', except if you melee him in the head in campaign.
 *This level is very similar to the ''Halo: Combat Evolved'' levels, Assault on the Control Room and The Maw. The whole level is a sort of tribute to or model of those two levels, as the level start message on the level select scene is "Assault on the Control Room", several phrases used in those levels are used here, and there is the Warthog Run in both of the last levels.
-*There could be two meanings to the Arbiter's words, "Were it so easy." The widely accepted and most likely meaning is that, it would not be so easy to kill the Master Chief. However the second meaning may be an answer of agreement to Lord Hood's words, "It's hard to believe he's dead." He could be agreeing that it would be much harder than that to believe that he's dead. However, this is unlikely, as the Arbiter would know that the Master Chief could not be killed so easily, after all that he's been through, and all that the Covenant has done to kill him.

 *In the final cinematic with the Master Chief, if you look closely at his Assault Rifle's ammo counter, you can see that it had only one round left in the magazine.
 *If you carry the unknown skull through the level "Cortana" you will spawn with a [[Spartan Laser]] at the beginning.
