This is a list of minor glitches in the Halo games.

[edit] Hole to Hell

The "Hole To Hell" glitch, or A.K.A "Portal To Zanzibar" doesn't get you anywhere, it is just a glitch that makes a large black hole surrounded by a magenta glow, and when you walk to it, it makes a lag-like effect, but only when you're near it and moving, so make sure when you are doing the glitch, it is somewhere that you can hit into or walk on.

Go to any map, make sure you have a Gauss Warthog and a Spectre, this could be done with up to two of each, or just one of each. Have one person get in each turret and fire at a wall/ground/mountain/base. Make sure each person is firing at the same spot on the wall. Soon after firing at a spot, it will be just a big black hole with a magenta glow around it, it will make a lag-like effect, but only when you're in motion near it. It can also be done in Halo: Combat Evolved but it's black with blue surounding it instead. Just get a lot of Needlers.

[edit] Disappearing Grav-Lift on Relic

While playing the level Relic on Halo 2, use the Warthog's M68 Gauss Cannon to shoot the sniper platform above the mini-grav-lift (visible at http://halo.wikia.com/wiki/Image:Relic.jpg ). If done correctly, it should fall off and enter the sea, slowly drifting away.

[edit] MAC Cannon Glitch

On the level Cairo Station on Halo 2 on any difficulty you can kill yourself in a very interesting way. The first part is easy, fight your way through the level as you would normally until you reach the part where you have to disarm the bomb. As you enter the room from the elevator on the right is the MAC gun loading mechanism. Jump onto it and allow the MAC round to push you into the chamber, when it fires you will magically fall through the floor, you will die and then fall through the roof of where Master Chief leaves the station in the next cutscene. Sometimes it is possible to fall and appear on the outside of Cairo Station and you fall through space or appear in the right side of the cutscene where you can see it.

[edit] "Lighting" Glitch

Only occurs on Halo 2 and was first documented by Rooster Teeth productions, the makers of the popular machinima cartoon Red vs Blue. Basically, this glitch allows an avatar in a darkened room to appear lit as if in bright sunlight. To achieve this, one has to look at a character, and then if they don't watch them move from a lit area to a dark area, they stay lit (this also works in reverse i.e. a dark character can move to a lit area and stay dark) If the avatar moves forward, or jumps, the effect is instantly lost, although they can be pushed and can move very slowly backwards. Burnie Burns states that this was highly useful in the filming of Red vs Blue at Red Base on the map Coagulation as it is in shadow.

[edit] No Arms Glitch

In Halo 3, you can make a player have no arms. Enter forge mode with at least 2 players, one in monitor mode and one in normal. Spawn any weapon like a Assault Rifle .This is the tricky part. As the player picks up the weapon the monitor has to hold it. It may take a few tries. Then, the monitor player has to move the weapon. The player's arms will be missing.

[edit] Sag Glitch

In Halo: Combat Evolved, if you kill something in a position where a body will fall half on a ledge and half in midair, the part hanging down in midair will distort and sag down.
