Hey Cortana, Do You Love Master Chief?
Over the course of the Halo saga there’s been one burning question in almost every Halo fan’s mind. Does Cortana love Master Chief? Through words never spoken there has been an underlying love story between the two since the very beginning. Now, thanks to the advancements in modern technology, we finally know the answer… kind of.
In the latest Xbox One update, there was a huge addition to the console with the inclusion of Cortana, Microsoft’s intelligent personal assistant. Essentially this is the green team’s answer to Apple’s Siri. Of course, just as with Siri, it didn’t take long for users to start taking the AI to task with some interesting questions. Far past the silly questions of ‘Hey Cortana, what does the fox say?’, fans were quick to get down to the nitty-gritty.
One user in particular just couldn’t play the guessing game any longer and asked the question we’ve all longed to hear the answer for, do you love the Master Chief? The answer… brilliant.
It doesn’t look like we’re ready to start singing ‘Endless Love’ just yet, but there’s definitely something going on.
For those of you not in the know, here’s a deeper explanation as to what the new personal assistant is:
“Cortana is now available on Xbox One in the U.S. and U.K. With Cortana, gamers can expect more from voice commands on Xbox. In addition to more commands and greater accuracy with natural language and text dictation, Cortana provides the ability to use a headset or Kinect.
“You’ll be able to use Cortana to find great new games, see what your friends are up to, start a party, accomplish common tasks, turn on your Xbox One if you’re using Kinect, and more. We’ll continue to build more Cortana features over time as part of our vision to have Cortana be your personal digital assistant for gaming.”
