*The Hayabusa armor bears a resemblance to feudal-era samurai. The armor is named after [[Wikipedia:Ryu Hayabusa|Ryu Hayabusa]], protagonist of the ''[[Wikipedia:Ninja Gaiden (series)|Ninja Gaiden]]'' series and DOA Combatant. The helmet is almost an exact copy of the "ninja of the future" costume in ''[[Wikipedia:Ninja Gaiden (2004 video game)|Ninja Gaiden]]'' on the Xbox. Bungie may have put Hayabusa armor as a way of saying thanks to Team Ninja for putting [[Nicole-458]] into [[Wikipedia:DOA4|Dead or Alive 4]]. Team Ninja, the developers of the ''Ninja Gaiden'' series and ''Dead or Alive'' series, are also mentioned in the credits for ''Halo 3''. | *The Hayabusa armor bears a resemblance to feudal-era samurai.
