Probably annoy hardcore fans of the books because Spartan III's weren't fucking invented at this time period. No idea why Bungie didn't stick with Spartan II's (Master Chief and Jorge etc)

They were invented at this period. There where about 2 or 3 generations of Spartan III's before the fall of reach. The problem ist that nobody knew something about them, and there are definately no on reach. Same as you I have no idea why they just don't put Spartan II's in the game...

I've got the Halo Encyclopedia, and yes...III were out at that time, but the IIs were the superheroes, where as IIIs are head and shoulders above ODST and others, but nowhere near a II. Tom and Lucy were the only survivors of Beta company's 300 IIIs, and Alpha lost everybody. Gamma had 330, and was close to full strengh by the Fall of Reach, and Delta Company status is unknown. Compared to all IIs, which numbered 75 totally.
