If you go to 1:25 of the Documentry somewhere in that second is what looks like a Gray Alien. And note in the Documentry before that bit they say something like "You don't know if it is Cortana" or something. Well wha if it is a gray in disguise and is scrambling transmitions to look like cortana.

It's probably the gravemind speaking through her.

Hey, before i make a new thread and risk getting flamed or blacklisted, does anyone know where Dr. Halsey is/was last?

If Dr. Halsey is like missing or something, i think it would make sense for Gravemind to be Dr. Halsey. Cortana was formed just from Halsey's neural PATTERNS, so cortana and gravemind could be a reunion of sorts. you know, catching up on what each has learned.

i'd appreciate it if you could at least pretend to have an effort to share with me why it doesn't make sense. possibly by telling me where halsey is

We have no idea what Dr. Halsey is up to, we just know she took a Spartan and ran (sorry can't remember the Spartan's name and I don't want to go look it up). We know she is on some mission that she feels is very important.

Correct me if I am wrong, but I don't think the books have any binding affect on the story of Halo 3. They are nice little fillers between the games, but nothing binding on the story itself. We don't even know if the other surviving Spartans will even be in the game.

As for Dr. Halsey not being Gravemind, the generally accepted theory is that Gravemind controls the Flood. Furthermore, Gravemind seems to have a specific knowledge of the Halo rings that is beyond anything Dr. Halsey would have. I appreciate your creativity, but I see no way that Dr. Halsey could be Gravemind.

but gravemind is, i believe, a brain sorta flood and would presumably need the initial host, would he not?

btw i appreciate your civility in your response

Possible, but I still think highly unlikely. The Flood modify the original host, but not that much. There are several examples of infected humans in Halo and Halo 2 and they don't turn out anything like Gravemind.

I think Gravemind's knowledge is based on experience, experience that comes from age. If Dr. Halsey were Gravemind's initial host, Gravemind would be a rather new creation with initial infection happening about the time that Halo 2 begins. From the context I think that Gravemind was around during the time of the Forerunners, I think it is that old. All we can do is wait and see though.

Gravemind is not a brain form. Brainforms are whitish blobs with stiff tenticle type things fused to pelicans, ships, and stuff. Gravemind is not a brain form, he IS the Flood. The Flood is one entity that extends itself out in the form of combat forms, spores and carriers. So the Flood is a character, the Flood is Gravemind. So he is not really a flod form, he is the true form of the Flood.

i think if mc hadn't stopped it, keyes would have been turned into a gravemind for installation 04. frm wad we noe frm guilty spark, 04 had been activated b4, nad dat probably killed off 04's gravemind. but we dun noe if delta halo had been activated at all. hence, gravemind is still there. and besides, if not 2 turn him into a gravemind, y did the flood make keyes a cacoon? y not just infect him like normal marines? any thoughts?

The Flood may be similar in some respects to the Borg from Star trek, with Gravemind filling the role of the Queen, or in this case king. they both absorb or assimilate other species.

God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Therefore will not we fear, though the earth be removed, and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea; Though the waters thereof roar and be troubled, though the mountains shake with the swelling thereof.” – Psalms 46:1-3

shouldn't it be time for u to die or something? anyway, the dude in the doc was still rendering it, but from the model, it looks like a jetpack-equipped brute, but without the rendered hair. dat's all. and considering that the elites are no longer the prophets' escorts, it kinda makes sense that the brutes would replace the rangers. and this probably means we'll be seeing more brutes on the battle field. so, yea. it's probably just an unrendered brute. i'm more interested in the weapon it's holding though... definitely new. maybe a covie smg? or a covie magnum? or something entirely different... (:

my guess is that she took kelly with her to the training centre of the spartan III project. probably as a training guide. i mean, who better to train spartans than a spartan herself, right? and i relli hope the grampa guy gets banned. he's completely insensitive and arrogant. PBM, any other questions? i'll try 2 look up theories fer u.
