Or she's gone rampant, that would be my guess. I guess we'll have to wait and see.

I think she is evil now... Just the gist I get from it.

She might have been hacked by the Delta Halo's Monitor.

Like in the movie?? Do you mean trailer or the last cut scene in Halo 2? Anyways, I dont think she's the type of AI that can easily be threatened.

I've heard the 'evil cortana' theory from more than a few people. and these other posession theories kind of make me laugh. did anyone read the halo novels?!?!?!? if you did, you would know that her systems are breaking down at incredible rates because of the sheer amount of information she absorbed while inside the original Halo. now that she's inside another halo system her AI structures are being overloaded with info and is essentially...going to go crazy and think herself to death

There's Gravemind-Cortana theories flying abound.... And I might be willing to achnowledge that it's possible that gravemind is part of her consciousness, but I think it's mostly just rampancy and a little bit of arrogance.... People re-read the earlier Cortana letters and connected them with the text, now you get some more tidbits for the Cortana letters that I personally find rather interesting/relevant....

I am still not sure what he ever saw in you.

Nevertheless, I at least find some joy in tormenting the other entity that
seems quite trapped in this antiquated excuse for a network. It is
certainly mindless, though for reasons I have yet to understand, it appears
to have an unhealthy preoccupation with my mother.


As with the other Cortana letters, when I look back upon it it gives the feel of a future Cortana sent back in time now looking back on things and trying to intervine from the past... All the same, she refferences her mother (Dr. Hasley) and Him (I assume John/117) and now has a contempt for non-Spartan humanity... Hmm... She then refferences the covenant for a while then goes on with the following:

I have begun to sense rumblings of a worse fate yet to come. I can recall
a sun - black, but shining - and the creatures that inched along its fiery
tracks.

It is an increasingly unpleasant memory.


And then of course

Have you missed me? Things are great here. The weather is good, the suns are shining, and I'm making lots of new friends. Of course, I always do.

I've had the strangest dreams lately - raging seas, howling beasts, a Demon folded in black clouds. I believe I know what it guards, and I will have it, to the chagrin of the faith-blinded zealots that challenge me. Don't waste your pity on them; I don't think they would like you much anyway.

And what of the Giants who formed this world? So much to tell you, but so many more important things to do. There was a fourth. You couldn't have known. And I haven't forgotten.

It is a blurred line that lies at the edge of Godhood and Insanity. Guess which side of it I am on.


Seems like a rampant Cortana after power for herself (possibly the ark), talking a little about the forerunners and hidden power blocked by demons... Okay, I'm done now...

You know, the better I get to know the Flood, the more sure I am that Gamerz is a FBI agent.
