Some things in the books aren't exactly equivelant to the game. For example, in First Strike, the Spartans jump from outer space and on a planet and most of the STILL survive, but in the game if you jump off a high cliff you die. Doesn't make sense to me...

Because the book is actually just fan fic.

Well, there are a lot of similar inconsistencies. For instance, in the book a Spartan can sprint 100 meters in about 4 seconds or less, but in the game you move with roughly the same speed as an average running human. I'm not sure I'd call the books "just fan fic" as just another fan puts it, but in any case the game came out before the books, so it's not that strange that certain events in the books were altered or extrapolated.
