There is a thin line between insanity and genius, i would put myself right in the middle and i enjoy every second of it.

My friend suggests that john ( Master Chief / Spartan 117 ) and cortana are in a sort of "love" relationship but i just find it out of the question. Halo may be the most unique shooter i'v ever played, but an AI that loves a human is too much for me, anyone else have a comment on them?

It's not romantic love, but it goes deeper then battlefield camaraderie. They share a unique relationship in that they share a mind. I see it more as mother/son or brother/sister rather then husband/wife.

I see their relationship as even closer than any family relationship, they're minds are intertwined, they are practically one.

A unique and strong relationship, but in no way romantic.

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

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

One cant live without the other.

They have basically become one.

Wouldn't surprise me if 343 did go down that ridiculous route though...

Vengeance only leads to an ongoing cycle of hatred.

This.

I think people fail to realize that love isn't just erotic love. There's different kinds and there's much more to it than just sex.

"It will not be we who reach Alpha Centauri, and the other nearby stars, it will be a species very like us, but with more of our strengths and fewer of our weaknesses, more confident, far-seeing, capable, and prudent. For all our failings, despite our limitations and fallibilities, we humans are capable of greatness."-Carl Sagan

John sees Cortana as a useful piece of UNSC kit, basically she's in the "irreplaceable tools" section of John's mind.

Perhaps early on. But months of being together (eventually years when Halo 4 hits) has brought them close.

Compared to decades fighting with his Spartans, I don't know. Maybe he holds on to Cortana because he seen Halsey as the only link to his past that makes him happy in a weird way

Who knows.

smart, interesting, seems out of place.


Official fan of Assassin's Creed, Call of Duty, (Problem with that?) Halo, and Bungie, also a total gaming junkie.

Honestly, I think Cortana DOES love John.

I rule the midnight air, the destroyer, die by my hand, I am Creeping Death.

I think of it like Eragon and Saphira...

I had been thinking the same thing; sharing a mind helps the friendship building thing too.
