Hint: Terminal Locations
You will unlock a secret achievement by finding all seven terminals listed below...
Terminals: The Ark
Go left through a door once in the very first building of the stage. The terminal is located beyond a curving passage.
A terminal is located right near the device that activates the bridge on this stage.
There's a secret room in the third building which holds the third and final terminal on The Ark. After you come across and kill a group of sleeping Covenant enemies, head down the nearby corridor. You'll reach a door that is locked if you do. To the left of the locked door is an open door. Head through the door, and then turn around to find the terminal.
Terminals: The Covenant
Head to the stage's first tower and stand on the elevator. Face the control panel, and then turn left. Jump over the obstacle, and find the terminal you seek.
Head to the stage's second tower and walk towards the entrance. When you come across a locked door, turn around to find the second of three terminals here.
Head to the stage's third tower and stand on the elevator. Face the control panel, and then turn right. Jump over the obstacle, and find the third and final terminal on the stage.
Terminals: Halo
Traverse the first cave, and then head right until you come across a building. Walk along the passageway towards the building. Once inside, run left to find the terminal.
Scarab Mangling
Having trouble with a Scarab? Or maybe you don't want to get on board (and abandon your bright, shiny Scorpion). Try this strategy instead: on the back of every Scarab, there is a circular glowing spot you can shoot to do damage (it is similar to the glowing spot on the back of Wraiths).
Locate the spot on the Scarab's rear armor that is below its rotating anti-air "ass" (or abdomen) turret. A few shots from Hornet missiles or Scorpion tank shells and the armor will fall off and reveal the critical system you normally need to board to wreck. Don't forget that shooting the Scarab's legs will stop it from turning.
Easter Egg: Cavemen
On the Sierra 117 mission, the Pelicans will crash. After that, you should clear the area like you normall would. As the area narrows as you proceed, there are some rocks on your left that you can jump on. Continue along a ledge thereafter. Once it heads down, you'll pass a large boulder on your left. After you do, turn around and take a look where the wall and the boulder intersect. You'll see a family of primitive cavemen-like people!
Easter Egg: Spartan 117
When you beat the game, you will be shown a memorial for the men and women that died in-game. Spartan 117 is one of those considered KIA, but if you wait for the credits to end at the end of the game, you will see that Spartan 117 is very much alive (this only applies if the game is finished on Legendary).
Easter Egg: Elephant Flipper
In the Forge, edit the Sandtrap map and create a Scorpion. You can use the tank to lift and flip the Elephant (the large Sandcrawler vehicle). Once the Elephant is upside down (or undrivable), approach it to flip the vehicle and get a humorous message

I saw the funny conversation the first time I played this game. It's not that hard to find. I also have the skull that no one has. Its called the IWHBYD skull. A lot of you probably don't have the Unknown Skull, either. Just add me on Xbox Live if you want me to help you find skulls. Send me a message telling that you're from this site in the friend request.

Hey also there are a few more skulls that you missed. 2 in Silver. I'll get them to you later (school blocking all of the sites) also If you want to beat the legendary campaign fairly easy and quick just join 3 other players online and blast right through it. For the points like 15000 in campaign. Turn on fog when you have a lot of players, (don't need it if you talk a lot and have beaten the game) also a few good ones are famine, mythic, and the one that gives the guys a level up. The other ones make it a little to hard to blast through with all or the points. Hey also get a lot of freakin head shots with brutes because that's where the points are and try for always getting 1/2 of the points needed by the end or the level because of the 2x multiplier which if you can't get it I suggest selling your Xbox 360, Halo 3, and all other items associated with it to some 6 or 7 old boy or girl because I will bet that they are better than you. Also, get out of the basement and maybe try a sport because gaming is just not workin for you. if you can get 2.5x for time you are worthy of playing Halo 3 live and 3x you are a Spartan. That is all for now.

Best way to get the meta game acheivements is to do it solo. But turn on EVERY gold skull except Iron, Black Eye, And Famine. Then do it on normal and youll get it VERY quickly. Also noob combo brutes and you get 3x the score for killing em.

I'm having trouble beating the last two levels for the final meta-game achievements. I just hate that damn Cortana level so much. Even when I play on Normal with only four skulls, I get wrecked.

yea that level is a pain. i havent gotten around to gettin the meta-game acheivements yet but the best advice i can give you is to take as much cover as possible and try to aim for their heads. or just throw grenade after grenade that always seems like it works well.

And that is why I'm going to hire a kid to beat Halo 3 on legendary for me. XD There's a later strip where Gabe demands to see his helmets and the kids like 'I only got one!" and Gabe says 'Yeah well that's how many the police will find! YOURS!"
