  Did you know that Virgil will blare the police car sirens and regular car alarms to alert the player of a nearby audio log?<br><br>And when collected, obviously the alarms will turn off

  The &quot;Hitchhikers might be escaped convicts&quot; line is referring to the cop that tags along with you. He&apos;s corrupt and turns on the player if you get all the audio logs.

  Buck: Selfless leader. O-.<br>Romeo: Selfish a**hole. AB+.<br>If you don&apos;t know, O- is a universal donor, while AB+ is a universal acceptor, indicating blood types that match their personalities.<br><br>Side Note: I love your videos, EBR.

  <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iWHLt35dbPQ&amp;t=483">8:03</a> fun fact: the space elevator actually rises up into space when it breaks, which is accurate to how a real life space elevator would react to a low altitude break

  Fun fact: in Halo Combat Evolved, Jackals have a complete set of animations for using the needler, including reload animations, despite never using them. These can be seen by giving Jackals Needlers in the Halo Editing Kit

  Some of these details are different in certian versions like the orignal 360 American version had a poster saying something like destiny showing a object very similar to the traveler right next to earth while MCC changed it to the for her poster.

  <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iWHLt35dbPQ&amp;t=948">15:48</a> I NEVER would’ve thought to do that, it makes what Buck says in the ending cutscene and during the last mission make much more sense

  <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iWHLt35dbPQ&amp;t=836">13:56</a> On the Xbox 360 version of ODST, if you skip that opening cutscene entirely, Romeo starts off with a full magazine, as technically he hadn&apos;t fired his rifle. I don&apos;t believe this works anymore on the MCC version, however.<br><br><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iWHLt35dbPQ&amp;t=991">16:31</a> Virgil&apos;s warning is also a nod to the fact that the cop you encounter in the Data Hive is taking part in some shady business; I.E he tags along (hitchhikes) and was involved in criminal activity, most prominently murder (escaped convict)
