With RadicalClass32 I got one mission done...fml
Jackal Snipers in Halo 2 aren't that bad unless you know where they all spawn. Sometimes they will spawn in different locations and there's this one spot in Metropolis where an infinite number of them will appear unless you progress forward.

I pride myself on clearing the opening area of Keyes whenever I play. The flood waves stop respawning after about 5 minutes of nonstop death and you get a fucktonne of shotgun ammo.
I stayed there as long as I could on Legendary to see if they would keep coming out and they would come out with weapons you RARELY see them hold like Beam Rifles and Sniper Rifles. I don't think they were programmed to use those weapons so they would just stand really far away and do nothing unless you got near them.

High Charity is an interesting level to play around with the AI on. One time, I walked up to a Brute and he said "I am your friend!" and he didn't open fire or anything towards me and actually fought back against the Flood. A short time later that same Brute started to shoot back at me. Like the Combat Form with the Brute Shot, this Brute saying that to me was the only time that has happened.

In CE, some elites enter their T stance when stuck as well as floating in the air when operating a Warthog Turret. The Library on also has one Combat form that spawns at the back of a group with a rocket launcher, team killing them all as soon as you appear. The Xbox version has like 5 instances of this happening on legendary, it's great. Elites also just stare at you if you're at point blank range and they're in a Turret or Wraith.In 2, sometimes the Wraith to the right at the end of the Scarab mission before the final Boss spawns upside down, and the brute walks around with his Brute Shot on his back and doesn't shoot you. Also Sword Elites in Reach do no damage if you're driving a Forklift either.
One thing I forgot was on Assault on the Control Room in CE when you get out of the caves/tunnels and reach the next chapter, you can freeze the AI. If you had marines that followed you up to this point and you zipped past ahead and reached the chapter, if you go back into the tunnels the marines would be frozen in time. They don't move, talk, or do anything. Its really weird but hilarious cause you can hit them with grenades and rockets and their body won't move unless you walk to a certain point. You can launch their bodies miles into the air because of this. When I get a Slim Xboner and the MCC I'll show you guys this hilarious glitch.
Here's how to get past Assault on the Control Room. Doing this will skip the loading zone, so you can take a ghost to the end of the level and no enemies will spawn.

Well, I lost my sanity.

It takes some serious practice, because you need to fall at nearly pixel-perfect spots, but it's arguably easier than doing the entire mission alone. I think Nak3d Eli has a guide on it or something.
I'm gonna go through Halo Reach all the way to Halo 5 on legendary.
