May the Great Journey await you, may your enemies writhe in hell, and your line continue forward, and gain honor. May your scattered body go beyond the limits of your mind... Beyond the limits of our worlds, to the places our ancestors dream and sang of, and the Prophets speak of.

kelly at least is on a secret mission with dr halsey. the others were probably spread out around earth or on other stations when the covenant attacked. don't want all your eggs in one basket. i hope they make an appearance now...maybe we'll know more after the next book.


Yeah, hopefully the new book will shed some light on why the other Spartans aren't in Halo 2.
Maybe Dr. Halsey went to Coral. The Covenant did glass Coral a couple of days[Weeks?] before they attacked Earth.

all the missions of all the spartans should lead towards one final ending,(like pulp fiction or seinfeld) for example kelly's mission leads to the death of the prophets causing chaos allowing chief to do something.....hmmm...


Well, the Chief Ended the Prophets...Well, 2/3s of them, at the end of H2, he was after the Third.

well just some way to make all the spartans responsible for the protection of earth and destruction of cov. /make all of chiefs missions in all the games and books one small part of the final result. just trying to say make end result a joint effort by all spartans, just unknowingly to john

That's Cassandra, and it is never said if she is a Spartan or not. (It's pretty obvious that she has a deep connection with John though.)

The Books are Official Canon. Their are still Spartans alive.
EDIT: or, at least were alive at the End of First Strike, But I doubt Bungie would just Kill off the other Spartans so easily. i think they are planning to incorporate them somehow, even if just by name.
* John - 117
* Linda - 058
* Fred - 104
* Kelly - 087
* Will - 043

Bungie has not recently stated that the books are canon, so, don't just say that. I know howstuffworks has them saying that, but that article is old. There are several stark differences between what happens in First Strike and what happens in Halo 2, which proves its not the same thing.


Bungie is the only source for information, they last time i checked, The Books are Canon, and said all fans should treat it as such...

But you aren't seeing what I'm saying. The books contradict the game. In the First Strike, the covenant know where earth is and they are gearing up to attack it, they know the coordinates. In Halo 2, the covenant accidentally stumble accross earth. They have the coordinates, but they are reading them as forerunner coords. The difference being that in First Strike they are going to earth to kill humans once and for all and in Halo 2 they are going to earth, not knowing that it is the humans homeworld to find a forerunner artifact. They come with a tiny force in Halo 2, they are preparing with a massive force in first strike. So, go ahead and argue that the books are the same thing, but, I'm just showing you that they contradict.

Also, Bungie could've made story changes between the time that First Strike was published and Halo 2 was made. It doesn't have to completely fit.

Don't tell me what to do, we're debating this. The more people debate this, the more facts come out, and the more the truth of whatever it is becomes know. So, we are giving you a better answer by arguing. It isn't angry arguing, it is just debating what we believe. It is the way answers get found.

humor me, if they r alive, where r they? make a dumb guess i dont care


Ok so you wanna explanatiopn of where the other spartans are? i will tell you where they are. They are in the center of the universe.
Houston Texas. Where two starbucks on opposite side of the street face each other.
They all decided to get coffee without inviting spartan 117, mc, john, whatever.
Little did the know, when they went through the enhancements to become spartns. THEY GOT ALSHEIMERS which they all have except mc. Now they went to get coffee they went into that starbucks in houston texas. BUT NOW, EVERYTIME THEY LEAVE STARBUCKS
BECAUSE THEY ARE FINISHED, THEY SEE ANOTHER STARUCKS ACROOS THE STREET. AND BECAUSE THEY HAVE SHORT TERM MEMORY LOSS FROM THEIR ALSHEIMERS THE THEY SAY, "OH ITS A STARBUCKS LETS GET COFFEE." So now MC thinks hes the last spartann because the other spartans are eternally trapped in the center of the universe buying more and more coffee in houston texas. MC must fight the covenant and flood alone....

That's the best news I've heard all day.

How many times must bungie tell you people that the games and books are part of the same universe and are in all the entire Halo story, not fan fiction. I would like to see the other spartans as well as flash backs to make the Halo 3 experience more cinematic, so it can own MGS 4's detailed story arc.

Who said the other spartans weren't on earth. They could just all be stationed in different areas.

some r still alive

if your going by the book yes, if your going by the game no


The books are part of the games.. If you don't believe the books are how the Halo story goes... (minus The Flood, I thought it was a bit "loose" on things..)

here is an idea why the other spartans no help him.

one spartan. john/117/MC wiped out a whole armarda of covies, and seem to kill every covie in a 100mile radius.

so mabye the forces figured that out, and then spread them across the planet? you know, to help even more? instead of bungling them all up in one place, just to be killed by a bomb.

C'mon...simple enough to work out!!!
