*In the opening cinematic, a Marine yells, ''"They're everywhere!"''; this is a notorious line spoken by the BoBs in the original ''[[Marathon]]''. However, ''Marathon'' is owned by [[Bungie]], not [[343 Industries]], so it is more likely a coincidence rather than a [[List of Marathon references in the Halo series|deliberate reference]]. | *In the opening cinematic, a Marine yells, ''"They're everywhere!"''; this is a notorious line spoken by the BoBs in the original ''[[Marathon]]''.
