there are only 3 confirmed Spartan-II's still alive, other than John (MC)
Kelly, Linda and Fred.

However, I do believe that there will be at least one more introduced to be alive at some point in reach, because neither of those three survivors ever hung solo with four marines. (The Banner)
As far as the book goes, there seem to be about 10-14 Spartans that we know nothing about on Reach. We assume that they are dead because they were sent to protect the generators that gave power to the Orbital MAC cannons protecting Reach. As we jknow, the generators got destroyed, and this eventually led to the fall of Reach. We dont know for sure exactly what happened to them and for all we know they could still be alive.

Also there has been wide speculation about there being another class of Spartan IIs. As improbable as this might be, you cant really shoot the theory down because it could be done. Finally you get the Spartan IIIs from Gamma company that we know nothing about.



The games contradict all the other sources... or most of the, I would forget about the books at least don't get surprised if the story is different, personally I hope so... If they make a game of already maked story, the game would be boring....
The games don't contradict the novels and vice versa. Bungie practically wrote the Halo novels, why would they not be considered canon?


I'm just saying, they will change the story, I HOPE !!!
(and yes some things on the book are never mentioned in the games, is like they don't exist, like the other spartans... John is not the only one alive, but in the game he is the LAST SPARTAN.... so, the games and the books are different)
'
he is the last active spartan because others are MIA and KIA

I think he means so that you can't just make a checklist from the book and check things off as they happen in the game.

"Oh, look, I just landed and met up with the other spartans, guess that means that we'll be throwing the nuclear football next, and then after that I got to defend the power generators, and then escape into the Castle, and then slay the dragon..."

But he speaks as if Bungie should completely disregard the story (do something like say "there were 300 Spartans on Reach, the Chief led them, and was the only survivor after they all died when Reach was glassed. Then the Chief leaves for Halo 1").

I really hope that we are just members from Team Beta, so we see some events from the novels in the beginning (such as the PoA, the fall, the generators), but we have a totally new adventure that is simply a new perspective occuring during the battle of Reach.

I really don't consider that "changing the story..."

Just some details, the battle of Reach can be better, Master Chief could be in the heart of the battlefield, the Arbiter may be there as the Supreme Commander...
Somethings can be added, so it would be "richer" game experience.
(is just an idea)

If by next-gen you mean crappy, dark and colorless, I agree. It doesnt look next-gen at all.

Why do people have this huge hard on for MC? Why would he be on the planet? He never touches ground and Bungie doesnt go around just chopping parts of the story up for -blam!-s n giggles.

You mention that some of the details on the battle of Reach can be better, but what do you know about Reach anyways? Nothing. Yes, we know nothing about the battle of Reach, only a bit that they covered in the books.
