The game is seperate from the books. You can't have no involvement with the books whatsoever and then suddenly jam in random characters that were never mentioned before and other random crud. It doesn't work.Haha. Dude..things that were first mentioned (though not invented) from the books, were major parts of Halo 2..
The Prophet of Truth
Tartarus
The Arbiter
Lord Hood
Fleet Admiral Harper
The Hierarchs
The Prophets
The Brutes
Brute Shot
Battle Rifle
SMG
Magnum
Reach
Orbital MAC Stations
MAC Cannons on Ships
Glassing (Setting Fire to) Planets
Dual Wielding
The Gel Layer in MJOLNIR Armor
Archer Missile Pods
Did any of those things confuse you in Halo 2?
No, because they were introduced IN THE GAME. Halsey and the other spartans were introduced IN THE BOOKS, so there would naturally be more confusion.Haha. The three novels came out before Halo 2. They were introduced in the books, then the game. Who is to say that nothing else "from the books" will not be added to Halo 3?
They will, after all, be introduced IN THE GAMES, just like they were in Halo 2, thus causing no confusion."Haha" I'm not the one laughing, but I should be.
We shouldn't be introduced to other characters in the third installment of a trilogy. That would cause confusion, because those characters were ultimately used in the books as main characters. Thus, only people that have read the books would have an idea of what's going on if these characters made an appearance in Halo 3. But the other 90% of Halo fans wouldn't have a damn clue, myself included, because they haven't read the books.
The books will not have anything to do with the game in terms of Halo 3's plot.So basically you want Halo 2, but just on Earth? Wow.
You know, Halo 2 was boring to so many because nothing new really happened, correct? You want nothing new to be added AGAIN?
You have no say in it, I have no say in it. What Bungie says goes. The difference between you and I? Our opinions..and the fact that I'm more on bungie's side, meaning I am number two in this list:
1. Bungie
2. Dedicated Fans who have read the books
3. Dedicated fans who follow the Games' story
4. Fans who play a little Campaign, and a little multiplayer
5. "Fans" who don't touch Campaign mode, and stick to multiplayer
Judging by your arguement, you are nuber three or four. Sucks to be you, since..you may know, Pete Parsons already say that they make the games mainly for themselves, then the fans. Who wrote the story? Them, not us.
Expect the un-expected.
They wrote the Halo bible, and it's complete. The story is finished, just don't cry if you decide to press "A" when that informative Cinematic shows up.
