Cortana died and I almost went to the store to sell the game right there and then. Main villain most likely died, but probably had allies (As I assume that's what the epilogue was for). Cortana must have teleported him somehow to save him. Overall I loved the game, I liked the story, I really hated that ending. It really soured the game for me, to spend a whole 6 hours saying "It's going to be okay Cortana... we'll get through this." No it's not okay, she dies! The hell did Chief spend all that time consoling her? I really liked their dynamic in the game too. They spent a lot of time adjusting Cortana's model and her face, I could really see the fear in her eyes. The fear of her own demise... and Chief still couldn't save her. So pissed off at that ending.
