You've finished the campaign. You've murdered the multiplayer. But you're nowhere near done. To prove yourself a true Halo fan, one final quest remains.

The skulls. They're back and they're more elusive than ever. Hidden in remote and dangerous locations, these tokens of total ownership are almost impossible to locate without a little help. Which is where we step in. The following pages will make your hunt as simple and straightforward as possible. Just load up the correct mission, watch our corresponding video and - boom - you're done!



Above: You know you want them...

When searching for skulls, start missions from the beginning on Normal or higher difficulty.
To enable a skull's effect, choose Campaign in the main menu and then hit "X" to bring up the Edit Menu.

Iron
Black Eye
Tough Luck
Catch
Fog
Famine
Thunderstorm

Silver Skulls

    On The catch skull, you have to leave both of the wraiths and kill all of the ghosts, then quicky before some more ghosts come, jump onto something tall and get the skull, dont worry i find it comfusing aswell :]
