No. Its called aesthetic design change. The Brutes in Halo 2 looked extremely different from the ones in Halo 3, but that doesn't mean they are a different species.
This.
The grunts in Halo 1 must not be grunts then, they had totally different faces.
Drones in Reach don't have rank, must be a different subspecies.
Elites in Reach, H3, H2 are shorter than ones in CE, must be a different species.
Brutes in H2 and H3 look different, must be different species.
Water, your argument doesn't make any sense.
I see what you are saying, but al those differences are explainable. Grunts in Halo CE and 2 have a mask. Drones maybe didn't have rank pre ODST. Elites being shorter might just be the armour, or just elites who aren't as talk. Brutes in Halo 2 and 3 look different because fur was shaved in Halo 3.
But in Reach, they have physically changed the structure of the face. Their faces are flat. In Halo 2 and 3 they had long somewhat canine like jaws. In Reach they look rather more like gorillas.
Hopefully you still get what I mean. Its purely an aesthetic change, they are referred to by official reference as "Brutes". Skirmishers are officially referred to as skirmishers, not purposely confusing people by saying they are jackals.
I always use munition canon as a counterargument for flaws in small game canon. For example, did you know that on Reach they had fancy looking AR's that held 32 rounds, then on Halo they gave them a sleek design and gave them 60 bullets, then later they decided to destroy any AR that ever existed. But then they made more, but with 32 bullets AND the sleek design. Seems legit.
The Halo Encyclopedia states that the AR in Reach is a different model to the one in CE and Halo 3.
If you ask me it was an unnessacary aesthetic change and one for the worse. If they ever do a remake of Halo 2 they better not use the ugly gorilla models from Reach, they should keep the same models but put them in a new graphics engine.
