[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] SyK0sAm In my mind [i]Halo: Reach[/i] never was canon and [i]Fall of Reach[/i] was. [quote]I have heard that the events of a video game override books in terms of what is canon, but I can't bring myself to accept the game's story. Does anyone else feel this way?[/quote] I'm with you there. I won't deny that [i]Reach[/i] was a very epic game and it gave you a good feel of loosing your closest squad members e.t.c, but I would've preferred to have experienced it from the story of [i]Fall of Reach[/i] just simply because it was a great book.[/quote] While it may have been nice, bungie did say (I believe very early on) that the game wasn't going to be a "book events straight out." Personally, I felt one of Reach's best mission sets was Exodus-New Alexandria. Parts could be improved (Like the triage station... with zero civilian doctors or UNSC medics helping the wounded), but overall I enjoyed the feeling they put out. [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] BenTheSlayer011 Halo Reach didn't give you the sense of urgency it truly needed, Reach was THE military stronghold of the UNSC but it gave the sense you was saving a warehouse full of forklifts (pretty damn important). [/quote] At the same time, the book didn't portray the ground forces of Reach to be anything like how a military stronghold world would be. That meaning, competent, prepared, or even being there in great number.
