*Sentinels have the same name as the machines in the Matrix trilogy but they differ greatly in appearance.

*It is possible that these robots are beyond the border of ''Sandtrap'' because of the beam that originates from the towers looks like Sentinel beams, so it could be that they are protecting it from the Flood because of the blue layout in one room, the one with the flag in single [[CTF]].

*In ''[[Halo: Ghosts of Onyx|Ghosts of Onyx]]'', an [[Onyx Sentinel]] approaches [[Ash-G099|Ash]], one of Kurt's [[Spartan-IIIs]], and attempts to communicate with him, first in Latin, then in English. Later in the book, Dr. Halsey confirms that this drone was a Sentinel, therefore proving that the Sentinels of [[Onyx]] have a slightly more advanced [[AI]] than those of other installations. Interesting to note, the [[Bestiarum]], which is taken from a Forerunner perspective, gives species Latin names as well. So a Sentinel speaking Latin could show some sort of link between the [[Forerunner]]s, and the Latin language.

*In ''[[Halo:Combat Evolved|Halo: Combat Evolved]]'' and ''[[Halo 2]]'', you can destroy any unshielded Sentinel in one shot with an overcharged [[Plasma Pistol]].

*There is a [[Needler Sentinel]] found on the level ''[[Quarantine_Zone (Level)|Quarantine Zone]]''. It fires sporadic [[Needler]] rounds and drops a [[Needler]] when destroyed. This is an oversight made by [[Bungie]], and should ''not'' be considered part of the [[Halo universe]].

*In ''[[Halo: CE]]'', the [[MA5B|Assault Rifle]] has the same animation label as the [[Sentinel Beam]], making it possible to have a Sentinel with an [[Assault Rifle]]. However, there are no actual Sentinels that have [[Assault Rifles]] in the final product of the game.

*You can see Sentinels on the ''[[Halo 3]]'' maps ''[[Construct]]'' and ''[[Isolation]]''. Similar to the fish and birds seen in other multiplayer maps, you can shoot down Sentinels using long range weapons.

*On the Halo 2 level [[The Arbiter (Level)|The Arbiter]], the [[Elites]] joining the [[Arbiter]] referred to the Sentinels as 'Guardians' or 'Warriors' of the Halo Rings.

*Normal shielded Sentinels (like the ones in the Ark at the bridge you must activate) have relatively weak shields as it only takes 3-5 shots with the carbine to penetrate their shield and destroy them.

*It is possible to "surf" Sentinels (this is easiest on the ''[[The Ark (level)|The Ark]]'' where you must activate the bridge for the [[Scorpion|Scorpions]] and [[Warthog]]s) by jumping on top of it. If you land on it successfully you can stay and hover on it. When you land on it one of two things will happen: it will move as normal at its normal height, or it will sink and float/move along touching the ground. Sometimes, Sentinels will float along the ground, making it easier to "surf".

*For a short period in ''[[Halo 3]]'', Sentinels are the player's allies again (a result of the [[Master Chief]] being reunited with [[343 Guilty Spark]]). However, [[Guilty Spark]] only had command of the Sentinels on [[Installation 04]], it is hinted that the Sentinels on the [[Ark]] are either controlled or influenced by [[Mendicant Bias]], via several implicating messages on the terminals found on the Ark. The Sentinels on the replacement [[Installation 04]] are most likely controlled by [[Guilty Spark]]. Since [[Guilty Spark]] was destroyed, all Sentinels on the replacement [[Installation 04]] became hostile to anything on it.

*In ''Halo 2'', on the level [[The Arbiter (Level)|The Arbiter]], if you are spotted by a Sentinel, it will make a beeping noise to alert the others.

*In [[Halo 3]], an easy way to "surf" Sentinels on The Ark is to stand on top of the Sentinel Launcher. When it opens, move forward when you see the front of the Sentinel. If done correctly, you'll be on top of it. (If you fall off, destroy the Sentinel so another may spawn) With some maneuvering, you can get it off the platform and you can float freely over the light-bridge area. Sometimes, though, they will begin to drop and hit a Dead Barrier.
