Halo 3 Planet

Well, we’ve been doing lots of research, and thanks to the help of some of our readers, we have quite a bit of information on the very well hidden [tag]Halo 3[/tag] “IWHBYD Skull” (I Would Have Been Your Daddy).

We’re looking to really take the challenge of finding the last silver skull seriously, so we’d like everyone from the Halo community who is willing to help us with the task. We could use anyones help searching in the game, trying to contact members of Bungie, or even looking for alternative methods for finding the last skull.

UPDATE!  THE SKULL HAS BEEN FOUND!  IWHBYD SKULL LOCATION!

If you share anything revealing, we’ll add it to our list for everyones convienence.

Here is what we know so far:

• The Skull is on the level, “The Covenant”
• The Skull is the most difficult in the game to find
• According to ferrex (from Bungie), the Skull is found in ways that we have yet to imagine
• Hint included in the Game Code suggests: “Interred at the Foundry’s edge.” This indicates that the Skull is somewhere near the end of the level, most likely in the area with the Halo Ring Holograms and the Prophet of Truth. (Added 9/28/07 @ 10:47)
• Unconfirmed Reports of one of the Bungie Team communicating with people on Bungie.net, and from a picture of some new Game Code Suggests that the Skull is activated rather than found by jumping through the rings in a certain order. (Added 9/28/07 @ 10:47)
• The Halo Rings in the last part of the level each produce a specific note. All of the notes combined make up the same notes played in the Halo Theme Song. The Notes in order from First (Entrance) Ring to last are: B C# D E F# G A. (Added 9/28/07 @ 10:47)
• Ethan confirmed that the “Skull of all Skulls” or the “Grand Daddy Skull” is mentioned in the Bungie Podcast. Marty Knows about the Skull’s location, and they basically confirm that you need to play a melody with the musical hologram rings.

Please share your thoughts, discoveries, and research, and let us find this thing before it becomes the end of us!

Some Extra Cool Stuff we’ve found:

• Forwards found a really cool easter egg on “The Covenant”. You can find out how to play the the Marathon Song Easter Egg now thanks to his discovery!
