The '''Gravity Rifle''' was going to be the [[Covenant]] Sniper Rifle of [[Halo: Combat Evolved]], but [[Bungie]] decided to delete this [[weapon]] much like they deleted the [[Engineer]]. They do have the model in game but they never made a proper texture, first person model, and projectile. However a common mod simply has it firing plasma grenades which seems to be the right idea for a supposedly powerful weapon, similar to a [[Fuel Rod Gun]]. The Gravity Rifle was remade for [[Halo 2]] as the [[Beam Rifle]], which was also in [[Halo 3]].
 
==Halo Custom Edition==
 
In [[Halo Custom Edition]], there is a cheat which you can use to get it. If you activate devmode '''( -console -devmode)''', exactly as it's typed here with spaces, press '''~''' without the shift, and then type '''"cheat_all_weapons"''' into the purple text space, on the bottom of the screen, and then press enter and '''~''' again. It is situated next to the [[Flamethrower]]. To pick it up, the screen will say '''"Press E To pick up <need string entry here>"''', as if the game designers didn't even give it a name. If you are swapping it for another weapon, it will say, '''"Press E to pick up <missing string>"'''. If you press '''E''' and pick it up, you can't see it unless you change the camera position '''(` debug_camera_save (press enter) debug_camera_load (press enter) `)'''. There is no animation for it being fired, but it will create a bright flash when shot. It's similar to the [[flamethrower]], except it only starts a fire when you point it at a solid object, like the ground, a wall or a [[vehicle]]. The Gravity Rifle when shot, has no shot animation, but has a small flamethrower burst when hits. It is pinpoint accurate, despite having no reticule or scope. Some find it easier to aim by lining up a shot through a sniper scope, then switching and firing with the Gravity Rifle. Also, it has unlimited ammunition, so it will never run out. If you get a user-created map, some have replaced the gravity rifle with other weapons and some don't even include it at all.
