Prove you're hardcore: Dress your Spartan up like Hayabusa in Halo 3 photo

Looking to stand out from the crowd? Go on, and find that sneaky  "I Would Have Been Your Daddy" skull in Halo 3's single player campaign. Finding this last of the 13 skulls unlocks what appears to be Ninja Gaiden protagonist Ryu Hayabusa's helmet, for use in multiplayer avatars. But said skull is not easy to get -- Halo3Planet has a set of instructions that resemble something you'd find in a box for Ikea furniture.

But why stop at a helmet, when you can also carry the infamous Dragon Sword on your back? Getting it's easy -- simply get all 1000 achievement points in Halo 3 ... no sweat! I only have, oh, 980 points to go. The sword is simply cosmetic, and is not a usable weapon. But that doesn't make much of a different to me -- I'll be reviewing Bungie's next project by the time I get all of Halo 3's achievements.

So which one of you guys will be the first to don the full set of Hayabusa garb? Prove yourselves, pansies!

This would be a lot cooler if you could dress your spartan up as Mr. Destructoid

Although, a close second would be Ryu Hayabusa. Even when I get Halo 3, I'd never be able to get 1000/1000.

Those last two images are not wearing the Hayabusa armor.

And is the sword real? 1000 points ?

got the armor, and I really just like the arm parts of the armor, the helmet is cool, but just not my style

That is pretty damn cool. Once I get around to buying Halo 3, I'm definitely going to go for this. Now that's a worthwhile achievement, just like the mega buster in Dead Rising.

I prefer the helmet you get for beating the game on Legendary, but I have the Hayabusa helm anyway. I've got 860 achivement points on Halo 3, almost there.

Am I the only one who thinks this looks idiotic? Plus, so many people have it right now it is simply funny and not unique.

Yeah, it's a fucking cool armor set, but it's going to get old as hell real fast. Every damn kid on Xbox Live will be using it, before long. Personally, I just want to unlock the armor from Marathon. (Supposedly, you also get the Marathon helmet - called "Security" - by getting all 1000 gamerpoints. Can someone confirm this?)

Bah, "only cosmetic" = fail. Though, I guess this is MS returning the favor for letting the Spartan participate in DOA4?

Got it about an hour ago. F**king sweet. Now about that sword......:P

@Sharpless, yeah I know in a few weeks everyone will have it. It's a bit sad really because I've found no one else with it on any matchmade games I've played, and people ask you about it and such. Soon it will just be the standard.....:-( The security armour is very kewl as well, I don't have a clue how to get it though....

That's a really cool touch; it's good to see MS working with a Japanese developer for some fanservice.

Its more Bungie working with them than MS, methinks. Obviously a nod to Team Ninja for their use a Spartan in Dead or Alive 4.

I have he full armor set. Spent about two days with a friend trying to figure out the puzzle to unlock it but someone beat us to it.

Everyone uses it because it's the coolest looking. Honestly, if you compare the Hayabusa to any other helmet, they all look kinda boring. It's not Bungie's fault they don't know how to make 10 awesome helmets instead of 1 awesome one and 9 meh ones.

@ Toneman

I like the other helmets. I personally think the Hayabusa is not that cool. Kind of....lameish?

@ xbudZ

I have the helmet in those pics you speak of which means that I have the armor.

I just prefer to wear that instead, it looks better imo.

7/13 Skulls. Got the body armor part, that set is so awesome. Thing is, in about a week, everyone and their mother will have it, and the kids will be all, "LUK AT DIS PIMPIN ARMOR SHIT BITCHEZ", and it will lose it's pizazz.

But it's actually pretty fun finding all the skulls. >_> The Grunt Birthday Party skull is awesome.

A good ol' cap in the head to a Grunt and confetti pops out and the classic kid scream of "HOORAY!" is just a feeling of pure victory.

How did you get that helmet? That was the Security/Marathon armor I was talking about. What's required?
