A plot bunny has just reared its cute little head.

I stumbled upon a MassEffect/Halo crossover earlier and it made me contemplate the differences and similarities of AI from Halo compared to those in Mass Effect.

Your typical Mass Effect AIs use quantum blue boxes, so they are bound to their hardware and unable to transfer themselves to other machines without loosing their identity. Then we have the geth which are purely software and simulate the workings of an organic brain as a network in order to maintain sentience.

Now the AIs in Halo are created by scanning human brains and creating a digital analogue. This process destroys the organic tissue, but it can also be done on cloned organic tissue in the case of Cortana. This makes Halo AIs more similar to the geth in design than AIs that use quantum blue boxes like EDI.

Anyhow I thought it would be interesting if Shepard ended up as an AI as a result of Project Lazarus instead of the canon result. Of course I'm having trouble thinking of a good reason for this to happen. Maybe his/her body was too badly damaged or whatever, and rather than sticking him/her into a YMIR mech like I saw in two other fics, they would think he would be more useful if coverted into an AI.

Of course that would bring up the question of how would Shepard physically go on missions and stuff. Since he/she would now be a software based AI, using a geth body, seems like the easy answer. I imagine with AI capabilities like that, Shepard could hack a bunch of geth, erase the original programs and replace them with his/her own remote controls.

Oh my god I had a dream sort of like this

Thats sounds interesting through I think you are pushing it with turning shepherd into an AI . Gotta remember that Halo takes place 400  or more years in the future . Now what would be  interesting would be  some how the Normandy gets thrown  that 400 years into the future after Halo 3.

Could always go the brain in a box route and just stick it in a geth body like the YMIR mech fics.

Screw YMIR Mechs and Geth Mobile Platforms.







Shepard is pretty much a Space Marine anyways.

Yeah yeah... 

So i am watching  District 9 and I am thinking  Mass Effect needs some kind mech  power armor.  My guess it be Truan made and the humans would have some kind as well.   


edit: I wish the arc projector made people  go  pop like the  guns in District 9 .

That wouldn't create nearly as much angst as being turned into an AI. Plus he/she would be more like Legion then. :innocent:

That is my favourite movie of all time.
I do think Mass Effect could do with a few new gameplay elements. All we have is foot soldier and mako/hammerhead. Space Combat or this mech thing could "spice it up a little."

I'm working on the Great Legion Experiment of 2010, but it's slow going. I think Legion fans will appreciate it when it's done, though.

No, it's not anything interesting like a story or a piece of art.
