A lot of people are posting the same theories and mixing up the emblem with the COD4 one. The COD4 one, which is shown below is obtained through the Spectre IV challenge completion:

THIS IS NOT THE EMBLEM IN QUESTION. The emblem we're trying to unlock is this one:

According to 402, this emblem is obtainable in the game without hacking or modding. Proof of him saying this is shown on his Twitter account as well as the pictures below:

So now that you all know what emblem we're looking for, here are some of the THEORIES that people have thought of and proven to be wrong. Also, no one has obtained this emblem without hacking the game.
THEORIES IN THE TRASH:
Complete all Prestige challenges: FALSE. This is not the way to unlock the emblem and here is YouTube proof of someone completing all of them - [ame="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cnM-kZud2QQ"]Complete all Prestige Challenges[/ame] (Start the video at 1:05 to see proof)
Complete all Challenges in the game: FALSE. Even people who use JTAG to get all titles and emblems do not obtain the spinning skull emblem. [ame="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=510BC0Tq76k"]Complete all Challenges[/ame]
The game doesn't know the difference between hack and legit.
All Achievements Unlocked: FALSE.
100% Completion on Campaign, Spec Ops , Multiplayer (1100%): FALSE.
YouTube proof for both: [ame="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VClFA6kaMak"]Complete all achievements and trophies[/ame]
1000 AC-130 kills: FALSE. Like I said before, that unlocks the COD4 emblem. [ame="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rnWtFys1fIs"]AC-130 + COD4 Spinning Emblem[/ame]
1000 Nuke kills *Not call in 1000 Nukes*: FALSE. YouTube proof: [ame="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dMpUTGpG-Gk"]1000+ Nuke Kills[/ame] (Average kills with a nuke is say 6-9 per game. This would take approximately 112 nukes but if you want to be realistic and say 6 kills per game, you would call in about 167 nukes)
X amount of Days/Kills/Wins: FALSE. We have all seen the leaderboards, which is flooded with hackers that have over 100+ days of gameplay, killstreaks, or win streaks. YouTube Proof: [ame="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ei4d_pWdHHc"]X Amount of Days Played, Kills, Wins[/ame]
Get killed by an AC130 1000 times: FALSE (Thanks to You must login or register to view this content.-Thank him You must login or register to view this content.)
[ame=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GqJLxTbTuP8]YouTube - 1000 AC130 Deaths[/ame]
Complete all HIDDEN Challenges: Hackers have pretty much found all of the hidden challenges in the game and completed them. The game doesn't consist of many hidden challenges and even if it was a hidden challenge, then modded game lobbies would unlock every challenge despite it being hidden.
So there's the few theories many of us have gone through in order to get this emblem, and thus far, we're pretty much out of luck and ideas. Hackers have looked into the .csv (game codes) to find something that may stand out, and so far the only thing they found is the following:
"level 70 and pr_marksman_ak47_4"
You have to be level 70 to unlock the AK47, unfortunately the Marksmen challenge only goes upto 3 (III), which doesn't help us at all.
It also doesn't have anything to do with any of the DLC content as 402 said that the emblem was obtainable on the PS3 way before the first DLC came out.
Post any new theories you guys have. We're going to find out how to get this emblem!
Also, please refrain from posting theories that have already been proven wrong. We need NEW ones.
Remember the forum rules. For your convenience, I've posted a link to them:

someone whos good with hacks, test this : 1000 multi-kills with a javelin. dont make the mistake callumbaker made, i mean a MULTI-KILL, not a double kill or higher... a 4 in 1 or higher, 1000 times with a javelin
If MY theory ever gets proved, dont take credit. This is my Original theory, that i came up with before we even knew it was impossible to get. some time in jaunuary i think

Haxor!
IW made this Embem FOR HACKERS. They figured if they cant stop hackers (we always find a way around) then they would REWARD them, give them this emblem to say, "Good job, but dont do it again.." doesnt anyone get that? :tits:

To be honest I think there is no possible way to unlock this emblem. They most likely added it to catch modders. Yes I saw that capture the flag trailer and they could have just given it to him so they can show off the emblem. I used to think that getting to 10th prestige under 10 days was the possible way to unlock it but, it has been tested and it is not possible. Hopefully I am proved wrong and the possible way to unlock it is finally revealed.

1 post in this forum and you think you know it all. 402 has the dev team proving that it is indeed possible to obtain this emblem. Rewarding the hackers makes no sense anyhow, so how you came up with this theory is beyond me. Just for the record, PS3 players do not get banned, so they can continue to hack which also backs up IW not adding this to track the hackers. It also becomes quite apparent that the emblem was not intended for spotting hackers when you read the first page.

Please stop posting non-sense, it doesn't help those of us who really want this emblem, and want it legitimately. Besides, it's not about what you think you know, it's about what you can PROVE, you've got no proof, and this thread has PROOF AGAINST what you claim.

Aye. But we were told by 402 again that the Dev team were sidetracked by priorities. Can't remember exactly what they were but it was said. Although I do agree, since that last tweet we have heard nothing. Kinda rude if you ask me
