Will there be a Halo 4?
*WARNING -- SPOILERS*
I think the answer to that is a pretty safe "Yes." Bear in mind, Halo 3 did $300 million in sales in its first week. The next question is, will it be called "Halo 4" and will it feature the Master Chief (and Cortana)?
Well folks, your old Dad just finished playing Halo 3 all the way through on Legendary, and my 45 year old fingers are just as nimble as they were when I played Pong for the first time in 1974. I wanted to see that Legendary ending, and I wanted to earn it the hard way.

Bubbleshield Glitch Hits Halo 3
Frag The Cullen forwarded to me a film clip made by Jihaku of a Team Slayer game played a few days ago. In that game, player Geo Stelar seems to have an infinite bag of bubble shields. No matter how many times he deploys it, he always has another, a fact he uses to his advantage in this film. There's also a thread about the alleged exploit at Bungie.net.

Timebomb
After my friend showed me the flying turret, he also showed me the timebomb.
(In Forge)
First get a sticky. Then stick your friend. Once the sticky has made contact with your friend, they need to become the monitor. Now the sticky is stuck inside your friend and once they become a spartan/elite again, they will blow up!

Flying Machinegun!
My friend taught me how to make a turret fly! Pretty fun if you and your friends are playing forge.
First you need to spawn a turret. After that someone needs to get into the turret. Become the monitor and pick up the turret. The player should still be in the turret and is still able to fire.
Now you can flip them upside down, sideways, or make them do backflips!

Catch Skull: Pull pin. Count to three. Throw.
The Catch skull is on the level [b] The Storm. [/b] The effect is it makes EVERYTHING get more grenades. When I mean everything, I mean everything. One day while I was playing I had a flood throw a sticky at me. A STICKY+FLOOD=ldjfhglisudgbslbv
[i][b]ADMIN NOTE:[/b] I've never seen Flood throw grenades, even on Cortana on legendary with the Catch skull on, so I'm not actually sure this is possible.[/i]

Famine Skull: Trust Us, Bring A Magazine
This skull is found on [b] The Ark. [/b] The effect of this skull is it makes weapons that enemies drop, have half ammo. So for instance, say you pick up a beam rifle that you got from killing a jackal. It usually has close to 88 charge right? Well now if you're lucky it'll have 41 charge. Makes the search for weapons longer however it gives you a 2x multiplier on campaign scoring. Anyways, onto finding the skull.

Fun With a Mongoose
The ultimate vehicle, my favorite vehicle; The Mongoose. Here's what I use with my friends to totally own with a mongoose.
One of the things we do is travel. This works especially well with sniper. You get on the mongoose and then the sniper gets on the back. After that you take him to one location and hide the mongoose. Stay close to your sniper and when he gets a couple of kills get back in the mongoose and go somewhere else. This technique works very well on Valhalla and Sandtrap. Also you can just travel to anywhere pretty quickly. The mongoose is pretty durable and fast.

How To Get Free Points In Halo 3
c0rps3K1lla008 at High Impact Halo has posted a guide to maximizing your campaign score on Halo 3. It makes a good companion piece to the guide on skulls posted at Bungie.net. This one line, however, is genius and bears quoting:
Turning on Catch for Floodgate, Cortana, and Halo gives a free 1.5x multiplier! Why? Because the Flood do not throw grenades!

A Terminal Condition
Nthro Sraom wrote up a quick guide to the terminal locations in Halo 3. Don't forget, finding all of them grants an achievement, and viewing all of their pages (which are different on Legendary difficulty) grants access to a lot of Halo 3's backstory.
