Questions about skulls in Halo 3 ??

[Joshua]

I have these three questions?
1. Why is it that some skulls unlock an achievement right away and others don't do anything? Is this a glitch? Do the ones that don't indicate anything, do anything?
2. I stumbled upon it one time but it but isn't there a place within Halo 3 where it shows all the skulls out of the total skulls you've captured(pictures of skulls and some are different color)? Where do I go to find this, I was looking for it yesterday but couldn't find where it is?
3. Also on a semi-unrelated note, is there any way to transfer achievements from my non-xbox live account to my x-box live account.

I will be reviewing this and give the most concise answer the 'best answer'. Thanks,

Joshua

1.There are gold skulls and silver skulls, the gold one unlock the achievement and gives you an extra option in game i.e Enemies are harder to kill etc. The silver skulls dont unlock achievements, they just give that extra on the game ie. hit opponents to gain life. Its basically just to make the game harder or easier, depending which one you choose.

2. You can see which skulls you have when starting a new game, in the area where you see each player that is goin to play the campaign mode. If you look round screen there should be a key to the buttons you press, i think its something like options.

3. There is no way to transfer achievements from one account to the other.

If you are looking for skulls, there are plenty of video guides on youtube and many gaming websites to show you where they are.

Halo 3 is done.Just garbage now.Horrible game.Cod4 is much better buy that...If you can wait till April 29th, wait. Because GTA4 will OWN the online charts.

i have found all of the skulls!!!!. and they are easier than you think. when you are in the campaign pregame lobby press X and the skulls should pop up. the glowing ones are the ones youve unlocked. about the thing about not getting achievements for some of them is......half of the skulls are called silver skulls which do not reward you with an achievement. the others do. each skull has is own ability in the campaign once activated. and no they do not affect your online play. ALTHOUGH once you have collected all the skuls you get the somewhat rare hayabusa armor. here is the link on how to get the skulls. http://youtube.com/watch?v=XIE7I2OPgyA my gt is melman86 if you need help

#1. Some skulls are gold skulls and some are silver skulls. The difference is gold skulls tells the achievement you got and the silver skulls are not an achievement. It is not a glitch.

#2.To see the skulls u got in campaign, you got to go to campaign menu and press the X button and it shows all the skulls u got. The white skulls are the silver skulls and the gold skulls are the dark yelow ones.

#3. there is no way to transfer achievements to one account to another.

Gold skulls give achivments , Silver don't 4 silver 9 gold

You dnt have to transfer achivments they will go on your xbox live acc

Look on youtube they show you all skull locations good luck... or if u have xbox live i'll show you them all just ask for my name.

Cod 4 is the best.

1) Some skulls are for fun and some are for achievements.
2) Yes there is a place you hit the start menu when your in campaigne I believe or maybe its (X) can't remeber sorry haven't played the game since I beat it.
3)Yes you can call XBOX live and say you would like to transfer your xbox live account to a profile that is on your xbox that doesn't have xbox live. Hope that helps
