O_O you looked at your friends balls when "he" sat on your head O_o

You know how she starts talking in that richous(spelling?) way during the trailer, well i was thinking it was kind of wierd until i thought of this...

remember on the level High Charity in Halo 2, the last master chief level? well, he had to leave cortana behind. Now, her speech in the trailer sounds like it could have some sort of religious meaning. uber religion has to do with the covenant. I was thinking maybe since she had to stay in the ruins of high charity for so long, a covenant AI, similar to the one in Halo: First Strike, infiltrated her "tired" systems and took control of part of her, so now she might have a "double personnality" if you know what i mean.

What do you all think?

It's a possiblity, though it seems more likely either Cortana is going rampant or/and is controlled by Gravemind.

Do none of you have a sense of humour?
We do, this just isn't funny.

remember Cortana made clones of herself in the system? And they all started talking crap and acted all wierd... maybe Master Chief is hearing a transmission of the cloned Cortanas?

But yet that would tell us why When she says: Demons, it is Graveminds voice.....

Well it is cortana because FAQ did say that Both MC and Cortana were back....and banshee's

It said in the books about how AI go wierd after a few years, and how Cortana seemed exhausted after the First Halo after absorbing all of the data, and that probably sped the process up. I think her nueral impulses are getting fried, and that the mix of data is creating an alternate personality.

Then, in the trailer, she sounds much like the bi-polar Mercutio in Romeo and Juliet, who switches tones and personality. She goes from being holy and using figurative language to talking to chief in a loving caring manner.

Acting like pre and post pubescent idiots who feel confident behind Internet anonymity? Even though it's applicable to the majority of our members, we ask that they not do that here.

And nobody can just appreciate the graphics of Cortana? Sheesh.

She's just a compansionate as before, just now she has a full... personality.. yeah that's the word.

i have thought the same thing actually, so yes i agree with you. if you remember cortana did the same thing to a covenant A.I in the books.

yep, i think it would be cool though, like if she went crazy and stuff it woudl be kind of funny. when she does that a little sentence on ur screen should say: Press X to take cortana out and throw her into botomless pit.

Hail to the Victors! Reppin' that MAIZE n BLUE!!!

Chill bro. Gotta get my bowl.

That's a good point, because during that level she mentions that there is some kind of AI in the system fighting against, and that for a Covenant construct it was "unusually formidable".

It could have been gravemind in the system, or the AI that took her over in your theory.

Interesting nonetheless.

EXACTLY, and also, if you read the book Halo: First Strike, when MC and co go down to the ruins of reach and leave cortana to pilot the covie ship, and AI tries to take over the ship
