I remember growing up without internet and having to wait a long time as each page loads on a forum site using dial-up just to research skull locations. Good times.
remember how every skull tutorial back in the day was shitty and had linkin park playing in the background. I’m glad all the new players have these new guides not made by 13 year olds
Hey halo canon, thank you really much for the videos, I'm playing halo mcc with my friends and we're using all of your videos to seek the skulls, your videos are simply the best, the most intuitive!
THAT METHOD FOR SANDBOX -- WIsh I knew of this back in 2007 lmao. Spent hours trying to build tunnels and walls to block the guardians. But hey, I still managed to get it lol
Well man excellent job! Thank you. Now i'll just have to play Halo 3 again all the way through on the Classic xbox, then on xbox360 and after that again on xbox series x. God i love this game. I can not remember how many times i have finished them all (except halo5) now i want to get all the achievements done! Thanks again man!
Whenever you find a skull from what I gather... in order to use it you must bring it with you to the end of the mission. Afterwards youll get its modifier as an option as a possible "mutation." The thunderstorm skull basically causes enemies like Brute Chieftains to show up far more often which can be a mixed blessing in a sense that sure, youll be encountering those with the most health more often, but youll also see the rarer weapons from them spawn more frequently too.
IWHBYD isn’t working for me. Is there something I’m missing? I’m playing on Heroic, does it need to be legendary? Do I have to jump through the rings in a certain direction? Or is my game just broken? Edit: I just got it. Went through the rings facing the same direction every time. Towards the light bridge
I just spent like 40 attempts to get the Cowbell skull, just to realize that there's no actual achievement for picking up that specific skull on Xbox 360. YAY ME!!!
In the storm its impossible cuz there are hornets around and its impossible to take them down or something cuz they are instantly there when i go out the skull is disapeared and you cant get it
2021 Xbox360 user here, tried it multiple times without the rings blinking. Roughly an hour or so afking back and forth trying to figure out what was going on, I decided to revert back to my latest save (did that in numerous occasions as well) and on my last attempt the rings began blinking as expected. I assume it’s due to the extremely old Halo3 disc simply bugging out. You just gotta be patient/lucky. Hopefully this helps out the older console players trying to get the achievements (copying an pasting this to the vids I followed to get the ring skull)
The best way to get the acrophobia skull is to constantly play the part of crows nest where there's a drone swarm. Farm kills for around 5 minutes and you should get it. I used a machine gun turret so I can just spray them quickly then throw a grenade and die and do it all again.
I have a couple Xbox 360s sitting in the box. And I'm a big halo fan. One of them is a halo 4 edition. Untouched condition. Still in box So I opened up a black one to try this out. I love the game.
You missed one on cortana were a 14 skull was on the original version of halo 3. It didn't give you anything except if you took it to the end of the level then when you spawn in the beginning of the final level you have special weapons like a Spartan laser or gravity hammer or rocket launcher I can't remember. Sadly this 14th skull is not on mcc.
Halo Canon, you should totally put your gamertag in your video descriptions, would love to run a Legendary complete run through all the games with you. I could listen to you tell me where everything is and little canon details as we played all day long.
The sandskull method didn't work the missiles kept glitching into the structure and killing me instantly I placed and I've tried every possible method to get this skull and it's impossible for me to get it
Is it some sorta big or something I finished on legendary and got all skulls but didn't get the achievement for the last skull and for finishing it on legendary
Thanks for the in depth guide! I'm following it along right now, though I've picked up the Grunt Birthday Party skull twice (reverted back to last save and retrieved it once more after the achievement didn't unlock) and got no achievement for it. This game was bought used, so I looked in my achievement library to see if I already had the achievement, and it's not there. Does anyone have any idea what the issue is? I can't get the armor without this achievement, and I don't want to have to go all the way back.
I'm so glad this game is so old, lol. I looked it up and it said this particular skull isn't a gold one, so an achievement doesn't unlock for it, but picking it up still goes towards the armor. Gotta love those old 2007 forums. Other silver skulls in this guide are: The Blind, Cow Bell, and I Would Have Been Your Daddy. No achievements for those. I love playing a game like this and still finding out new things about it.
Another way to obtain the Sandbox Skull is to: 1) Spawn an Elephant. 2) Place a teleporter in the bottom front part of the elephant (in that little space underneath the driver seat) 3) Drive the elephant over to where the skull is (the Guardians can't kill you while your driving!) 4) Line up the elephant so that when you exit the teleporter you can just grab the skull 6) Immediately die as soon as you stop driving ("They stopped driving! Everyone get'em!" - The Guardians probably) 7) Respawn then spawn another teleporter 8) Head through the teleporter and grab the skull! 9) Profit!
Not sure but I noticed on mcc pc version playing halo 3 It took like 5-10 legit seconds to even register the achievements for the first 4 skulls in the game ,so who knows maybe glitched or something
When getting the IWBYD skull i didnt get the skull even though i had picked it up... how can i fix that? Cuz i got it twice, and it still said i didnt get it

I will never get over how epic that fricken intro is. I watched it like 10 times then put in headphones for the full experience 😂
What does it say about me that I still knew all the locations of the skulls even when I haven’t played the game foo almost a decade now
Yeah I get you. I remember even all the weapon spawns.... So long ago, but still remember.
that people like me and you played the living hell out this game lol
It says you were able to remember the skulls
Your Average Everyday Crusader lol
Same lmao
Already have all the achievements for these skulls, but I just love your content. Keep it up
Yo that was one of the coolest channel intros I have ever seen! Thanks for the video also 😁
This helped me so much I didn’t know it need to be on normal difficulty or higher and thanks for the locations too man

You missed the second skull on cortana, in the power core room.
It’s bugged in MCC
I actually just carried a tube corner to get the Sandbox skull. I died a few times, but it worked.
the sandbox one isn’t working for me. I have the skull in my hand but no achievement ):

I remember spending hours covering every corner, rooms, doors in this game for all the skulls lol

Edit: I just got it. Went through the rings facing the same direction every time. Towards the light bridge
Love you
Yeah, I don't know if it strictly matters but I go through the same direction just to be safe.
oh my god you are my hero
i did it multiple times and the rings didn't glow when i did it in MCC on PC
Hey what gives! This skull guide video hasn't got Reel Big Fish playing in the background!
You forgot about the secret skull on cortana that gives you a Spartan laser in the next mission If you carry it to the end.
Apparently it's bugged on the MCC: it spawns in the level just above the surface, falls, and rolls down into a bottomless pit.
Oh, so you don’t need to carry the skull to the end of the level?
You forgot the bonus skull on Cortana in the generator room that lets you start the next level with a Spartan laser
I just spent like 40 attempts to get the Cowbell skull, just to realize that there's no actual achievement for picking up that specific skull on Xbox 360. YAY ME!!!
you can also just stand on the grav lift in citadel to boost you up to where the skull is
@06:30 holy hell I missed this skull & had to Redo the whole mission on MCC & I didn't get the achievement. :/
Also it's hard AF to get.

Why does it show you getting achievement for cowbell but it won't show on mine?
cowbell wasn’t there for me, is there something i need to about for it not to despawn? i was on legendary
I dont have assembly and the other maps you can play the map after you got all the campaign skulls or how cause i dont have the map
Aye my dude! Nice video. I gave you a shoutout in a recommend video I made

Do i have to carry the skull the rest of the level?
No
I think I need to finish gathering the skulls, thanks for this
I have the Xbox 360 version, to use the skulls do I have to first discover them all together?
I have a question. So for IWHBYD I jump the rings in the correct order but the skull never spawns. Am I doing something wrong
I have a couple Xbox 360s sitting in the box. And I'm a big halo fan. One of them is a halo 4 edition. Untouched condition. Still in box

Yes it is it's just bugged and falls down into the pit when it spawns in thus making it unobtainable right now
Why tf is chief doing a jojo pose in the thumbnail?
Cuz why not.
He is not doing a stupid jojo pose.
He is getting ready to either
A: throw the skull or
B: hit someone in the head with the skull.
What about the 2nd Cortana skull?
You can't get it right now on mcc since it falls into the pit when it spawns
My all skulls achievement still won't work and I have all of them on campaign and multiplayer lol

For some reason i cant get the iron, famine and cow bell skull, dont know why.
Iron doesn’t spawn for me and a he’s others too like thunder and the one in the citadel.
I don't know if they fixed the sandbox one or what, but once i get to about 7-8 mines they all blow up on their own. So now what....
The sandskull method didn't work the missiles kept glitching into the structure and killing me instantly I placed and I've tried every possible method to get this skull and it's impossible for me to get it
I got the skull but didn’t get the achievement on Sierra 117
I'm struggling at the IWOBYD skull jumped into that same number and didn't light up?!?!?!
what do i do if there isn’t a skull like i went to 4 of these and 2 didn’t have a skull and one never gave me the achievement
I’m having trouble with the iwhbyd one I’m doing everything u ask and still nothing
Huh That's weird for me it work
I had no idea you could do that to the towers on Sandbox with landmines
Loved your skull videos.
I did the ring jumping in proper order twice and nothing happened no light up or skull spawning.
That is the cool intro ever
For what the skull at legendry level or just collection?
First time did seen it at rpg halo combat

I saw you grab the grav lift in crows nest and then remembered the ark
Does this only work with mcc or also just the regular halo 3?
Cortana skull doesnt spam in legendary spent an hour doing and no way it appears...

1) Spawn an Elephant.

7) Respawn then spawn another teleporter
8) Head through the teleporter and grab the skull!
9) Profit!
i tried that but couldnt get the elephant up the hill
I didn't get an achievement for the Cowbell or IWHBYD Skull for some reason.

How to do you pick it up
Great upload ‼️CAN SOMEONE HELP WITH CONFIGURING THE SKULLS TO DIFFERENT HALO’s ! For example I’d love to MOVE feathers Skull to HALO:CE
2:54 to 3:00
Wait! You can do that?
I didn’t know we can do that!
Idk why but the skulls arent giving me their achievements
The second skull in the game won't spawn.
Tried jumping through the rings 10 times now it is o annoying
What does the skulls do for PC?
Finally those damn rings were so annoying!! Took 10 tries
EPIC halo 3 SKULLS
how do you pick up pc
Is anyone else's challenge progress resetting upon closing the game?
THAT'S WHAT'S HAPPENING
I can't pick it up
thanks for this!
I didn't year you mention this, but IWHBYD has to be on Legendary.
not really
I’m pretty sure it doesn’t
Won't let me pick them up
How do I pick it up tho!
It won't pop up the logo but it's the RB button
You still need this in 2020? Young aren’t we?
I knew you gonna melee keys.
thank you very much
I cheated and used a chopper to get the Famine Skull LOL
Your sandbox skull strategy is terrible as the mines blow up automatically after about 60 seconds
