Im not trying to sound like a halo obsessed lose, but over a period of time i would take a little break of live and play legendary campaign for a bit. Then one day when i was sick i finished it and no secret ending, no reward, not even a "Congratulations you beat legendary!" message. Just thought i would put it out there for no reason, and also to people who might think about trying to beat legendary.

Evrybody should finish H2 Legendary at least once. In the old days we all finished because that was the only way to unlock the MP map Foundation.

Yeah, back then it was but I think it came with the first map packs when they came out.

Edit: I just looked and Foundation is not in any map packs. I guess you still have to get it the old fashioned way so I believe you just opened Foundation. So it was worth it to finish!

Maybe that's why some people get a message saying they don't have all the maps, maybe they need to finish the game to get Foundation.

Nah i have had foundation, idk how but i remmeber all those zombie games whn i began xbl.

Maybe an update did it or something for the 360. I just replaced my old box with another old box and I noticed Foundation was not there. Some people here do not have a 360 and have said they've never bothered to finish Campaign so I'm wondering if they can get it by going online.

I unlocked that map another way? I didnt know that was how to get Foundation.

Maybe they gave us Foundation with the first update? I don't really know but the story was you had to unlock it. It's been so long ago, maybe it was Heroic you had to beat. I do know I ran through Campaign (when I got this latest original box) on Easy and I still do not have Foundation. I can't tell about the updates because I want to swordfly so I won't get updates for this box.

Wait, after you get a skull, how do you get it to stay like that for the rest of your time so thatsay you can jump super high with explosions once you go into a random level on a different difficulty. In other words how do you keep them turned on.

They stay on automatically until you eject the disk or turn off the box.

You didn't have to beat the game on Legendary to unlock Foundation. Even beating it on Easy unlocks it.

No it doesn't. I've had an xbox since Halo first came out. I just got another one (with no updates) so I ran through on easy so I could open High Charity (to get other profiles) and I even let the credits run. I looked in MP and Foundation is not there. Maybe on Normal it works but not on Easy. I'll experiment later today and see if finishing on Normal does the trick.

This is for the original Xbox, I think the 360 comes with Foundation so you don't even have to beat the game to have it.

ohh ok yeah i remember hearing if you beat campaign then you get it but i never remember which difficulty. What is the whole High Charity thing that you were talking about though.

It's the easy way to get all the profiles you want, that way you don't have to play through the whole game just to get another profile. On coop, choose a profile that has finished the game, then choose a new profile for player 2. Now start High Charity on easy and simply run through it and finish that level. When The Great Journey starts, quit and save and now you have another profile that has all levels accessible (you do not have to play The Great Journey).

We use this method to get all the skull saves, a profile is for each skull and it only takes 4 or 5 minutes to run through High Charity on easy. I have somewhere around 25 saved profiles which means it took me less than an hour and a half to get all the profiles onto the H2 profile menu.

Edit: I forgot to mention that you can delay a checkpoint by jumping constantly (doesn't always work) or by constantly meleeing (works great, especially with an energy sword). The reason this is useful is, when you are getting close to a skull and you know a checkpoint is imminent, start melleeing the air constantly until you get to the skull. Then simply stop the melee and a checkpoint comes (quit and save at that point). Be sure to save and quit before you get the skull and it will be there forever. If you quit and save after picking up the skull it will not be there the next time you want that particular skull.

Also, I checked one of my old HDD's and it had 35 profiles. One save for each skull and a profile for each level plus several cool saves.
