Bullet Time is when you percieve that everything is moving slowly. It's a cinematic trick popularized by the matrix.
Yes, correct...percieve...as in perception...as in visual perception...as in "...marked visual perception." TFoR, pg 57
An accelerated neurological system (which I might add would be impossible for Cortana to accelerate since it involves a chemical exchance between dendrils and dendrites)
Apparently, she does just that:
The Fall of Reach, pg 252
"No. Cortana resides in the interface between your mind and the suit, Master Chief. You will find your reaction time greatly improved. She will be translating the impulses in your motor cortex directly into motion."
The Fall of Reach, pg 253
"Cortana resides 'between' your mind and the suit, interpreting the electro-chemical messages in your brain and transferring them to the suit via your nueral implant."
One significant by-product of this would be a severe Attention Defecit Disorder which would explain why Spartan Morale went down when they were on leave and they only felt alive while on a mission or in training.
True. Master Chief also makes note of how uncomfortable he feels when not in his armor:
[b]The Fall of Reach, pg 218
"Without it, he felt exposed somehow, like he'd left his quarters without his skin. He had grown used to the enhanced speed and strength, to his thoughts and action melding instantaneously."
