Subject: No Cortana in Halo???

In 2556, while still stranded in space, Cortana attempted to talk to John while he was still asleep. Unable to get a response from him, she recounted the history of the galaxy, seemingly unaware that John could not hear her, and showing major signs that she was descending into rampancy."
Source: Halo Wiki

"Rampancy is a terminal state of being for Artificial Intelligence constructs, in which the AI "develops delusions of godlike power", as well as utter contempt for its mentally inferior makers.[2] When rampancy occurs, there is no way to restore the AI to its previous state and the only alternative is to destroy it before it harms itself and others around it."

Perhaps we don't play with Cortana by our side in Halo 4. Or her mental state play's a part in Halo 4's story....

What do you think about Cortana not being in Halo 4?

The person who said participating is important, not winning, obviously never won anything.

Who knows, some people say she reaches Meta-Stability...

Who says there is even going to be a Halo 4!
And who says it is going to carry on from where Halo 3 left off?

Game canon > Anime canon

She be crashing into the legendary planet right along with the Chief, completely stable.


Are you -blam!- stupid or something?

There's nothing to directly contradict Cortana going rampant at all, therefore Origins is completely canon and the depiction of Cortana being rampant is also.

It is time for her to become rampant anyway, she was created in 2549, since they're adrift in space still by 2559 she's going to have descended into rampancy by then.

Reach has far worse canonical inconsistencies than Legends. -_-

Reach should, Legends shouldn't. Legends had a few good stories to it - the Duel was excellent, Origins was pretty good, the rest were okay (with the exception of Odd One Out, which was an awful attempt at satire in Halo).
