+'''''Halo: Combat Evolved'' Trial''' is the demo version for ''[[Halo: Combat Evolved]]'', for both [[Halo: Combat Evolved (PC port)|PC and Mac]].
-The Halo Trial is a Demo version for the Halo: Combat Evolved game, for PC. It features the Silent Cartographer level, Blood gulch multiplayer level, and a Cutscene when you quit that shows Sergeant Johnson and a platoon of marines finishing an attack on the Silent Cartographer.
-==Settings==
+== Features ==
-The player can log on to Gamespy (No account needed) and their profile will say that they are up to the level [[The Silent Cartographer (Level)|The Silent Cartographer]]. It also has all the normal settings information, such as audio and video settings, normal features and preferences.
+=== Campaign ===
+Only the [[The Silent Cartographer|Silent Cartographer]] mission can be played in the ''Halo'' trial. The level features similar environment, weapons and enemies but players would not be able to save the level, as doing so would restart the level.
-==Single Player==
+=== Multiplayer ===
-[[Image:Silent-Cartographer-Victory.jpg|left|thumb|200px|Johnsons add.]]
+[[Blood Gulch]] is the only map featured in the game with the capability of hosting up to sixteen players per game. In contrast to ''Halo: Combat Evolved'', ''Halo'' trial's version retains similar weapons and vehicles but features low graphics settings, as players are encouraged to buy the full version. There are only two gametypes: [[Capture the Flag|CTF Classic]] (First to 3 Flag Captures) and [[Slayer|Free-For-All Slayer]] (First to 25 Kills). However, you can still play different game types by choosing your filters and joining an existing game.
-===Campaign===
-The player can play the [[Silent Cartographer]] mission. This demo is for [[Halo Mac|Mac]] and [[Halo PC|PC]] as the retail version of [[Halo:Combat Evolved]] has the game for [[Xbox]], [[Halo PC|PC]], and MAC. You cannot save the game; if you click continue after quitting, you will start the level again.
+== Trivia ==
+*When the player closes the demo, an advertisement for the full [[Halo: Combat Evolved (PC port)|''Halo: Combat Evolved'' for PC]] appears, which features [[Avery Johnson|Sergeant Johnson]] telling (almost ordering) the player to buy a copy of the full version. However, one can simply bypass the advertisement by pressing <code>Alt + F4</code> or <code>Ctrl + Alt + Delete</code> and ending the program, or by using the <code>-novideo</code> command line parameter on Windows. On a Mac, the player can just press Escape or Enter. The video can also be removed by deleting the demo.bik file in the program files.
-==Multiplayer==
+*The demo contains all of the weapons from the full version; Fuel Rod Cannons, Flamethrowers and Sniper Rifles can only be used in multiplayer. It also contains some of the full version's vehicles, such as the Warthog and the Ghost; the Banshee and the Rocket Hog are accessible in the multiplayer mode.
-===Game Servers===
-The player can log onto Gamespy but needs to enter in the IP address. Also you can use GameRanger but you need to turn on GameRanger and you need to again enter the IP address, or you can go to the 'join game' page.
-===[[Blood Gulch (Level)|Blood Gulch]]===
-There is only a single map in the demo, [[Blood Gulch (Level)|Blood Gulch]], capable of hosting up to sixteen players per game. There are two gametypes: [[CTF Classic]] and [[Slayer]].
+{{Halo Demo}}
