Halo 2 skulls: Difference between revisions

Line 6:

Skulls are collected by picking them up, as the player would a weapon, though there is no information text to wield a skull. Skulls' effects are only found in the game's [[campaign]].

In the original [[Xbox]] game once a skull is collected it is immediately activated; this is denoted by a white flash and a loud "whoosh" sound. The skull's effects then last until the console is restarted. The same is true of ''[[Halo 2 Vista]]'', though the effects last until the game is restarted. In order to reactivate the skull, the player must find and collect the skull again.

The skull's effects then last until the console is restarted. The same is true of ''[[Halo 2 (Windows Vista)]]'', though the effects last until the game is restarted. In order to reactivate the skull, the player must find and collect the skull again.

In ''[[Halo: The Master Chief Collection]]'' the skulls are present, however they are not activated when they are collected (though the flash and "whoosh" are still present). Instead, skulls must be selected from the pre-game menu before beginning the level. The skulls are unlocked by default (along with a number of [[Halo: The Master Chief Collection Skulls|new skulls]]) and do not need to be found before they can be used, however each skull unlocks an [[achievement]] when collected, providing players motivation to seek them out.
