everyone knows that cortanna is an AI right? well in halo 1 shes a whole bunch of colors and she has short hair but in halo 2 shes 100% blue and her hair is much longer could some one plz explain this to me cuz im very confuzed cuz shes an AI and she still has normal features (idk how to say that) as a human

She may have simply got an upgrade like the MC's armor, or maybe an upgrade to be compatable with the MC's new armor, case in point the MC's new armor can upload Cortana via his hand as upose to uploading a chip into his helmet like in Halo 1

AIs choose their own appearence and i assume (it is not stated anywhere that i know of) that they can also change it at will

Or Bungie doesn't want 2004 graphics in a 2007 game. Plus, they like to try new things out with characters like vector graphics and big words :P.

I am...whimsical today.

The hair style change was probably for the sake of change, showing it was a new game, with new exiting features. (In-game it may have been Cortana reacting to her new roles around Earth).
I think the colours in Halo:CE mainly showed when Cortana was being emotional. In Halo 2 she seems much more relaxed.

AI's could change their experience, so Cortana could have, maybe she tried to look more human, or maybe she wanted a new look, or maybe bungie wanted to make her.... more sexy.

Hey, I'm just saying, Bungie would try to attract male fans, besides having super fun gameplay and fun graphics, just throw in a naked artificial woman and than you have fans gasping over the game, basicly, Cortana is there to seal the deal.

Also, in the back of the novel, she has a lazy eye and looks abit leaned over... I think she's been drinking... lol
