The game isnt based off the books.
Just to let you all know.


The books have been confirmed as official canon. In other words, both the books and the games are parts of the whole story.

I didn't know here were more spartans!Sweet! This would make co-op playing make a lot more sense. If theres around 30 or more they would woop the covies. Sue me, I havn't read the books. Having alot of spartans would be awsome.

Constant state of war, of one, with all.

Game isn't based off the books....duh.
That doesn't make the books any less credible of a source. Halo 2 sequences were based on ideas that happened in the book. Why is Johnson all fine and dandy in the beginning of H2? Books.

Ackerson did grab the cloning techniques used for each spartan didn't he? All the children that were sent back were killed though. Is he working on advanced cloning techniques, or did he grab the files to learn what he was up against?

You must not get on bungie very often, or you just dont read the important stuff. The books are Canon to the game, bungie has stated this. and i hope there is more than one spartan in halo 3

You should not be able to play as any other spartan. The Master Chief has been the games main character through the whole story and to change that at the end would just be stupid. However i think the other spartans should end up joining you in one last massive battle with the covanent.

Sorry I meant the statement to the guy stating that the Halo games are not based on the books. Or some nonsense. I agree in whole with you. I want to see more spartans. Sometimes I word things differently.

Your all idiots. The Master Chief (John), Fred, Will, Kelly, and Linda are all still alive at the end of Halo: First Strike (Which takes place after Fall of Reach). But there is another book comming out. Let's wait to read that one before we jump to conclusions. They could all be dead. Read all the books before you go spoutin off about something.
on the halo 2 forum this guys writing a book its very popular so check it out its about linda mc and the others its bad ass sweet

Dark Jester 86 is the Gamer tag.

Not that I'm trying to flame the vreator of this post, but there were originally 150 candidates which was cut in half due to funds. After that there were 75. During the auguementations I beleive that 30 survived 12 got mutated and or suffered from the auguementations and if I'm not mistaken 33 died. I'm not going to do all the math but assumeing that all the Spartans that are assumed MIA are KIA and that all the Spartans that died but don't have their name given in any reference source plus all that were mentioned dead on all the missions and com chatter, then there are currently 8 Spartans alive from the Spartan 2 class 1. This leaves:
John 117
Kelly 087
William 043
Frederic 104
Maria 062
Linda 058

and 2 other unnamed from the Spartan 2 class 1s. This information was from an information source that did it's own math and it's own tracking of all names. So the final product is that in the beginning of Halo 2 there were: 8 SPARTANS


8 SPARTANS still alive.
