A real man

In halo 1 cortana was a bright purple but then in halo 2 she turned blue

Anyone know why?

@accordingto343

Your one stop shop for all of 343's fabulous errors and ridiculous notions in the Halo lore.

Graphics change. It's just that simple.

The weight of your heresy will stay your feet and you will be left behind

that was corrected in the anniversary edition of halo C.E.

Well canon wise I think she just wanted to change her look. Cortana is a girl, like any other girl she likes changing her clothes

Lmfao.

Because the develpoers thought she would look better in blue than purple.

Wasn't she also blue, green and red at various points just in Halo CE? Pretty sure she was blue for part of the original game at least.

-blam!- Was that actually blammed out? Or did I just type it? You'll never know.

She wanted to look prettier for Chief.

This man, this man right here put it so eloquently that I actually cancelled my own 2000+ word long post.
/slow clap for respect

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

Because graphics change, and she looked much better in Halo 2 than in Halo CE.

And if you wanted a canonical explanation, than lets just say it was because she absorbed a vast amount of data from Alpha Halo's control center.

this, frankly I think her original look was dumb.

Don't worry, you're still your mom's favorite Bnet member.

Because she wanted to be hot.

Probably because Bungie felt that Cortana being purple looked a bit bad and that blue redeemed the way that she looked.

I on the other hand personally agree with the change.

Chief wasn't eyeing her up enough, eh?

for someone reason i thought cortana was a black girl when i first saw her in halo CE or perhaps light skinned, but i could never picture her being full on white.

I read this post and it was weird to me.

To me, Cortana is blue, simple as that. She doesn't relate to a real person at all as being a certain race to me, she is just what she is.

Vengeance only leads to an ongoing cycle of hatred.

She wanted to be sexy.

I thought she looked better in Halo: Combat Evolved.
