IWHBYD skull found, Hayabusa here we come!
Well, it appears that the mystery of the Halo 3 Hayabusa helmet has already been solved with persistent fanboys over at Halo3Planet.com figuring out how to obtain the "I Would Have Been Your Daddy" skull.To refresh your memory, the IWHBYD skull was the only skull that needed to be found, because the Hayabusa helmet (as part of Halo 3's armor permutations) can only be unlocked when all thirteen Halo skulls have been found. Thus, IWHBYD is uber important. Anyhoo, like we said, the skull has been found and is quite the tricky little devil to get. Full instructions can be read over at Halo3Planet.com, but in brief you'll have to make your way to "The Covenant" level and jump through seven Halo holograms in order to play the Halo theme song music. Crazy huh? We're sure Bungie thought they could keep the wraps on the IWHBYD skull for a while, but never underestimate the fanaticism that is the Halo community. Now go, go get your thirteen skulls and unlock the Hayabusa helmet ... your l33t status is in jeopardy!
[Thanks, to everyone who sent this in]

Lewis @ Sep 29th 2007 3:55PM

Chain @ Sep 29th 2007 3:59PM
I helped a friend get it last night. I prefer the look of the scout helmet.
DemonG @ Sep 29th 2007 4:21PM

wow they be some crazy stuff in teh haloz
z3nbrain @ Sep 29th 2007 5:02PM
yeahhhhh i got it.
it looks so freaking sweet, too.
and i bet a lot of people won't get it because it takes a considerable amount of time to get, etc.
erivera3 @ Sep 29th 2007 5:09PM
It amazes me how people can figure this stuff out, and so quickly too!
Jonah Falcon @ Sep 29th 2007 5:29PM
Some people tried hopping flying Banshees to floating islands to find it.
The people who are revealing the secret are dolts, though. They should have told NO ONE so they could have the helmets exclusively.
Now thousands of people will have it, and it won't be as much of a badge of honor. Just showing you can copy-cat with the best of them.

"and i bet a lot of people won't get it because it takes a considerable amount of time to get, etc."
Not anymore - not when there's a video showing how to get it.
DjDATZ @ Sep 29th 2007 5:33PM
Got it after 3 tries...lol...wasn't jumping thru the rings fully.
Anticrawl @ Sep 29th 2007 5:34PM
You guys are bastards. Why we gotta spread the news and belitle the finding of the skull? Fuck, I knew I should have never contributed the notes on the bungie forums.
sparkchronic @ Sep 29th 2007 5:48PM
yeah #1 had it right
you must take down so only i have it
noooooo
Marasai @ Sep 29th 2007 5:57PM
I got it last nigth. Thge cool thing about it is that it is so ridiculously tedious to get, everyone goes ape shit when they see you wearing it. i had a guy kill me and flip my corps over to lok at it.
Yuccadude @ Sep 29th 2007 6:04PM
I saw it last night and found out how to get it, and have the skull, but I don't have the rest of them, so I can't wear the helm. Also, I prefer the look of the ODST helm anyways.
Zac LaCombe @ Sep 29th 2007 7:26PM
I also had a guy stalk me after a game for directions to it. I told him to google it though.
C. T. @ Sep 29th 2007 11:04PM
Man, now you can't play on Live without bumping into an army of people wearing this helmet.
poprocker @ Sep 29th 2007 11:42PM
I'll eventually get them all, but seriously this helmet is not the coolest looking one. I think the EVO helmet looks way cooler
SoL @ Sep 30th 2007 12:11AM
The only helmet that which should come with a sence of "accomplishment" is the security helmet. Some of those FFA acheivements are not easy to get. Though I did get killing spree, triple and overkill in one game ^^. the sword triple kill is still eluding me though.
tommy @ Sep 30th 2007 7:38AM
ill probably end up unlocking it even though im not actually gonna wear it... i still prefer the e.v.a armour
angryguy77 @ Oct 1st 2007 4:02PM
my question is, who the hell cares? This is the gayest looking armor ever. Anyone who makes their guy look like this is a fag. Hi I like halo and love the master chief, but I'm going to be a complete homo and make him look like a ninja. Gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay gay
angryguy77 @ Oct 1st 2007 4:04PM
Ninja helmet=complete homosexuality
Alex @ Oct 1st 2007 4:32PM
i got the hayabusa last night, its 1337.
JohnHeist @ Oct 3rd 2007 12:58AM
I'll definitely get it, and probably wear it, depends on how often I see it online. Maybe after everyone stops freaking out.
I like the look of the Rogue helm the best I think
joe @ Oct 10th 2007 6:38PM
I don't think a ton of people will get it either. It took me like 5 hours to find all of the skulls with directions. This isn't something a stupid twelve year old will waste their time on. But the look is pretty Awesome!
