"Maddie, Where are you?" @ 00:36
I just noticed it in the video 36 seconds in... a message from the SI to 'Maddie' - was Maddie one of the other Spartans? I can't remember... but there were a few that weren't counted out as dead at the end of Contact Harvest...

I was about to make this same thread. Maddie is definitely not a Spartan. That message appears while SI is running down a list of alert messages. I'm guessing it's either a joke on the part of the people making the trailer or else it's meant to establish some level of personality on the part of SI. Remember how the AI on Harvest used to socialize? Maybe Maddie is another AI and that message was just inserted there in the past as part of some interesting exchange between the two.

A horrible person would make a Madeleine McCann joke right about now...

I saw it while doing frame by frame. good point about another AI, there are lots after all, and not all are "Smart AIs" like Cortana

We're the ones that society normally looks down on. But I doubt the message has anything to do with that, you guys are just reading a little to far into it there.

it also says "DANGER: FLOOD ZONE" to the maddie comment who cares its just a name there must have been hundreds of people called john who went missing and MC went missing so Bungie are being mean again -.- [Edited on 09.25.2008 8:32 AM PDT]

It's just pure coincidence and I'm sure relevant somehow to the story.

Bungie having a rather sick joke about Maddie Mccann?

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] BLIB A horrible person would make a Madeleine McCann joke right about now...[/quote] Well, if any British folk in here read the Daily Express, they can expect to see the following article in tomorrow's paper, spelling errors et al: [b]COMPUTER GAME COMPANY MAKES SICK MADDIE JOKE[/b] Makers of the ultraviolent [i]Halo[/i] computer game for the Xbox videogame console, Bungee, have made a reference to Madeleine McCann in a trailer released on their website and on Xbox LIVE Marketplace, asking "Where are you, Maddie". The trailer, showing off the apocalyptic exploits of a computer known as Si, was soon the topic of discussion in Bungee's own Halo3 forum, some people completely missing the obviously sickening imaginations of the game's creators and childhood-destroying influences of what the trailer was advertising. Kate McCann had this to say to Bungee: "What? What are you talking about? ...They probably have a character called Maddie, I don't know, stop harrassing me every time I step outside!" We'll have more as we get it.

Maybe it's Cortana? Maybe Maddie is her first name.

I can't believe Bungie would put such a thing in a trailer without knowing the consequences, I mean, they must know about the disappearance of Madeleine McCann. I'm sure they have their reasons and it probably is just a name, but in context "Maddie, Where are you?" - it's not very clever of Bungie to do such a thing, I smell a PR scandal if this gets distributed.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Hazzoxic Rofl, btw Bungie is spelled wrong.[/quote] I said "spelling errors et al". Read. Mainstream media is well known to make such blunders.

Maddie was a cat lost on the piller of Autum

I think it was a Madeline McCann reference. Speaking of which, i only cared about the McCanns until my cat woke up, as i heard the news.

wow. blown way out of proportion. It's not a reference to a real life missing child. And this isn't very funny. [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] lStormShadowl Didn't Mccain's make oven chips?[/quote]
