That's what I said about Halo Wars!
"Something 20 years before the Halo event can't possibly have...well...I'll be dammed."

I'm just saying although it's UNLIKELY, don't rule it completely out.

Gheheh, I agree :-) I didn't expected it either.

There's a reason the Flood could be included in Halo Wars. Since the Spirit of Fire didn't made it back to UNSC-controlled space before the events of Halo: CE, their knowledge of the Flood was never communicated to other humans. As far as anyone else knew, the Battle of Installation 04 was humanity's first encounter with the Flood.

Halo: ODST occurs on Earth during the same time as the events of Halo 2. What's left of the UNSC and the rest of humanity is already mostly present. There's no way to hide the Flood from everybody in this part of the story. The Flood simply didn't arrive until immediately after the Ark portal was opened during Halo 3. We saw it happen.

If that's not enough, you can try this: It was confirmed by Bungie during their off-stage E3 demos that there are no Flood in ODST. Watch some of the videos they've posted on the Bungie Blog over the past week. Confirmation is in at least one of them.
