I think so because Sergeant Johnson was killed by the flood and yet, he is in the Halo 2 demo and outtakes.

The Master Chief emerged from his code. After seeing his dynamically lit realtime shadow, he went back for 9 more months of development.


Behold the power of the Originals, the Gods Axeone-Neurone.

The books explain why he is still alive.

i am sure they will take the books into account. if you read that interview with eric nylund on HBO, or whatever the site was. he says specifically that bungie was extensively involved in the book and it all "basically" came from the halo bible of sorts which contains the overall story arc for halo. i am sure there will be lil differences but overall i think we can expect a natural transition from firststrike to halo 2

The books have to have relation to the game. You cant just go out and make a book giving all sorts of false information. Bungie was defenitly involved in the books, so some stuff in the books must relate to the game.

-S

Remember that the books were meant to flesh out the story of the games, not the other way around. =)

Nobody knows if they really will be taken into account, bungie has stated nothing about the books actaully being part of Halo 2's storyline.
