Gravemind takes High charity under control and ask some questions from cortana (maybe earths location etc). there is something odd about cortana

there is rumor that Cortana was infected by Forerunner AI/ Covenant, in high charity

If she was, she'd have blown the city up to kill Gravemind.

ever stop to think that perhaps she tried but it stopped her?

She did say something was trying to stop her earlier hence her reason for doing what she did.

And I dare say if someone was reading this thread but didn't want to see any spoilers that they are a little foolish?

 
Spoiler:
Didn't she say she would only do it if Tartarus managed to fully activate Halo? There's your answer.

he will become docile after that,

Spoiler:
That's what I thought. The detonation of In Amber Clad was a failsafe to stop the detonation of Halo - then again, you've gotta wonder how late she was going to leave it, seeing as it was only the timely interruption of Miranda that stopped the activation.

Spoiler:
but if Gravemind is floods leader why Forerunners just didn't kill it (and why it's in halo) and in arbiters first level there is some kind generator that uses flood (maybe forerunners used them as halos energy)

I think the Flood infested the Halos after realising they're apparently immune to the anti-life blast.

Which would explain what happened to the ForeRunners.

Except the monitor said that the rings were ment to contain and observe the flood. Thats why he was happy they lived long enough to reproduce...

Oh, and with that ending, there sure as hell will be a Halo3...

Spoiler:
I always thought the "happy to see some of them survived to reproduce" was referring to the Forerunner.

Spoiler:
pretty sure it was the flood... though that does lead up to wonder if the forerunners are closely related to humans, along with the reclaimer confusion...



Spoiler:
I have to say though, i stood up and hit my head against a wall when i saw the monitor come back in the cutscene witht he heritic... Then i cheered when Tartarus caught him... Then i cried when 2401 tangent showed up... Then I was happy again when the gravemind put him away :p

Spoiler:
I still think it's referring to the Forerunner. I don't think 343GS would be 'happy' the Flood survived - he even thought it might have been a mistake for the Forerunner to store the Flood in the first place.

Oh and yeah, these pesky monitors... though 343GS seems friendly, if a little rampant...

Spoiler:
I think I could imagine why he would be happy the flood was still there. Isn't it his job to contain the flood? What happens if there are no more flood left? He kinda loses his purpose...

:p

Spoiler:
On a serious note, he's always interested in containing the Flood, and activating Halo. I don't think he would have any qualms with the total annihilation of the Flood - if there are no more Flood left, then he's done his job!

Halo 2 multiplayer question: My brother and I always play these sorts of games together.  Is there a AI Bot selection option so that we can play DM and CTF games without being online using XBox Live?

You can link systems with other XBox owners, but I don't think there are bots.

My brother and I play these things together too, Ice. :) However, Bungie made the definite decision to exclude bots - get a few buddies and a System Link, dude. ;)
