Well, the first possibility is that it is a coincidence. In the other Halos I've seen things that look like faces on walls and stuff a lot, but it was just a coincidence, I think.

The second possibility is that, while it does look like a fetus, it is just representative of something. Maybe some sort of "rebirth" in Cortana, thus, the fetus. It wouldn't mean she is pregnant or something, it is just Bungie's funny little way of showing us something of her character in the next game.

AIs can't get pregnant. That is impossible.

Since absolutely no one is defending the topic starter, I think I'll make a devil's advocate argument for him.

First, Cortana cannot become "pregnant" in the human sense, because she is an AI. This is obvious. However, she (theoretically) could become the AI equivalent of such. The key lies in the duplication code she obtained from the Covenant AI in First Strike . When a copy is generated quickly, there are flaws and bugs in the code. If Cortana was to make a copy, but hold on to it so she could recheck the code to root out bugs, which could be called the equivalent of pregnant. To take it a step further, she could even manipulate personality routines, ethics, and so on, to create a whole new AI, bringing her even closer to a parallel of human pregnancy.

Secondly, she could change the appearance of her hologram anytime she likes, as a perk of being an AI. She can definitely do this, despite being a smart AI based on Halsey; look how her hair and facial features change between the first two games. So, she could make her hologram look pregnant anytime she wanted; all the same, she could also duplicate the new AI I described above, and give no outward hint of it.

Oh, and for all you that intend to flame me over this (and I know some idiot will), I am NOT saying that Cortana will be "pregnant" in H3!

To answer the question of whether or not Cortana can get pregnant think about this, can your computer get pregnant? The answer is no. I think you're just looking a little bit too hard. People tend to see patterns and pictures when there's really nothing there. And it doesn'y matter whether or not you're British the correct spelling is fetus.

Yeah, because it definately can't just be a transition from one image to another, no way, that's impossible. [/sarcasm]

Come on people, you're looking way too deep into the trailer, it's not supposed to be anything more than an announcement trailer, nothing more, nothing less.


I disagree, Bungie knows there own forums and they knew that people would completely break down there trailer to analyze it, so they stuck in a bunch of clues. I think they've misled us all and they are just to darn clever.

They also work with the goverment and Bungie is in area 51.. damn conspiracys.

Oh yeah, definately. I see representations of a mythological sun god, an astronaut, the Monitor, a representation of a bipedal "stick-figure" form, a spade, a depiction of the human eye, a scarab, unknown hieroglyphs and pictoglyphs...

Cortana, pregnant? I highly doubt it. If so, the MC is going to stick 10 Shiva nukes into Gravemind's rear end for stealing his girl. But she can make her appearance look pregnant if she wishes.
