That's not called time travel, thats called progression. He IS frozen after all. And Cortana's 7 year lifespan would be up, explaining her disappearance.
She has a lifespan? :(
Eric Nylund (author of most of the Halo books) made it so that the complexity of A.I. would continually expand as they learn more and more. Eventually they become too complex and essentially go insane with a form of computers Alzheimer's disease.
Damn, that really makes me sad. MC without his Cortana... damn.
Woohoo quote tree. Anyway, someone referenced an interview in another thread about how Nylund's works are canon (part of the official Halo story) but small details may still be changed by Bungie. Things like the fact that theres a battle for Reach and the planet is "glassed" are solid. However, details like Chiefs immunity to Flood infection (in the books) may be changed in the games.
This means that for now, the life span of A.I. is true, but is subject to change by Bungie if they feel like it.
Don't give up hope. :]
