A real youthful person...keep in mind Dr. Halsley is around 70 years old. Honestly, does the person in the trailer or the picture in the story board look like a 70 year old woman? Tell me what you think? With the 360's graphic abilities, they would be able to make an old woman look old. There would be wrinkles all over her face, much like the commander during Halo 2.

But, if Cortana is based on the Dr. it could be a more youthful Dr.

A more youthful doctor? The only doctor that knows MC is Halsley and she is not youthful. Also, the FAQ has this:

Q

Which characters will be returning in Halo 3?
A

Well as you can see from the trailer, at a minimum, we'll see the Chief and Cortana in some shape or form. And I believe Banshee pilots...

It's Cortana.

Then explain what she says. If this is a flashback in MC's mind of a younger Dr. Halsley:

1. She wouldn't be blue like a hologram transmission. She would look life like because it would be a memory of when she was with the Spartan program.

2. She wouldn't say, "This is how the world ends" because she wouldn't know of current events if this is a flash back memory. When Halsley was the age of the person in the trailer, MC was just a kid.

3. You wouldn't be able to hear traces of Gravemind's voice under the transmission if it was Halsley.

Do you have any evidence to back up the fact that it's Halsley? Evidence that out weighs what I have said, and the fact that Bungie has already stated that it is in fact Cortana in the trailer. So far you keep saying, "it could be a young version of Halsley" with nothing to back it up. Cortana appears as a young version of Halsley. If you have a credible reason for why it's a young version of Halsley (i.e. a memory of her, because no she is not sending messages to MC from the past) then state them with believable evidence. Otherwise, give it a rest.

I'm not saying it's relating to the story, I've just been saying it's Cortana not Halsley.

Haha! Well Hugh Hefner feels young, acts like he's young, but he sure doesn't have a smooth face that looks young.

I do not think that the hologram in the trailer was Dr. Hasley. She is oldER. NOT OLD. She is not freaking 70. SHe is in her 40's i think. The book says something about when john is looking at her he notices that she has ages and stuff. IF she was 70, you DEFINITLY would notice aging. THAT and Hasley is 20 something when the project starts, and John is 10. So you figure he is 30 something now, and she is 40 something. Or maybe they are BOTH younger. NO way is she 70. Whoever said that, is stupid. But also, whoever said that is Hasley in the trailer may not be completely off...



Jonrap asks,

My wife didn't recognize Cortana when she watched the announcement. I thought Cortana looked exactly the same. But my wife is smarter than me. So, I better ask.

Is Cortana any different? She seems somehow different. My wife didn't recognize Cortana when she watched the announcement. I thought Cortana looked exactly the same. But my wife is smarter than me. So, I better ask.

A: Women know things John. I don't know how they do, they just do.



It could be a "different" cortana (and by that I mean a Cortana with a different state of mind), or it could be a different person. Also, the whole lightning thing, i think that is lightning in the visor. NOT a spartan communicating with them. Although, i think there could be spartans in this game. In fact, i think that the banshee pilots are spartans but they took them out of the trailer so that no one could pause and freeze-frame and ruin the story. Because if you notice....the banshees are empty. My friends and I have all done it. THEY ARE EMPTY. Also, when the banshees come in, there is music like a triumphant victory, or the arrival of cavalry. Therefore, I think they are spartans that were edited out of the banshees, personally. Those are my thoughts, take them or leave em.

Sorry about interupting, but i've come to tell you about a new group: the alpha and omega. I've come to recruit people. It's for all those people who have their own ideas for storys and games that bungie should make or at least consider. it's also where you can critisize other stories and make comments and suggestions.

Please delete this ass above me.

I hate when people interupt forums. Everyone read my post above this IDIOT'S post

Really? She's 20 and a doctor, I thought her name was Dr. Halsey not Doogie Howser? Anyways, if you read the books you would know that in 2517 at the age of six, he's secretly kidnapped for the Spartan project. Also, you would know that Halo CE took place in 2552. That puts MC at age 41 like I said. Since Halsey was a doctor when she discovered John, she was in her late 20s if not early thirties (since she was heading a government project, not unrealistic). If we guess on the low end, she's 26 making her 20 years older than MC so she would be 61 now. If we guess on the high end and say 36 when she found John, then she would be 71 now. Get your facts straight before you start calling other people stupid.

Leaked script? If you are referring to what I wrote, the dates and information came from the books.
