 ===[[Halo: The Flood]]===
-*On page 39, the [[Pelican]]s had to wait until they entered Halo's atmosphere. Pelicans are known to be able to operate in space, although this could simply refer to the pilots being ''delayed'' until they were in the atmosphere.<ref>[[Halo: The Flood]], page 39</ref>
+*During a skirmish with a force of 100 [[Ghosts]], the book states the snipers and rocket-launcher-armed Marines couldn't be hit by plasma fire... as the weapons were fixed and the marines were on a hill. Yet in the game, the Ghost's plasma cannons can increase or decrease their angle. They could have easily killed the marines, unless they were positioned on an extremely tall and steep hill.
-*On the same page, there is a typo: "70mm chin gun". This should be "chain gun". However, its presence is inconsistent with other descriptions of similar UNSC ships.<ref>[[Halo: The Flood]], page 39</ref>
+*On page 101, it stated that "the Spartan was carrying a full combat load of ammo, grenades, and other gear, plus two magazines for the M19 launchers". Although the Master Chief was not carrying a Rocket Launcher at the time and if he was, he was never seen using it. <ref>[[Halo: The Flood]], page 101</ref>
-**Also, it could be that the gun was mounted on the chin.
-*During the [[Two Betrayals]] chapter, the Master Chief "went with the rifle and shotgun"<ref>[[Halo: The Flood]], page 281</ref>, and only a page later manages to come up "with his sidearm in his hand", though this could be a result of the book ignoring the two-weapon limit present in the Halo games.<ref>[[Halo: The Flood]], page 282</ref>
-*During a skirmish with a force of 100 [[Ghosts]], it states the snipers and rocket-launcher-armed Marines couldn't be hit by plasma fire, as the weapons were fixed and the marines were on a hill. Yet in the game, the Ghost's plasma cannons can increase or decrease their angle, and could quite easily have killed the marines, unless they were positioned on an extremely tall and steep hill.
-*On page 101, it stated that "the Spartan was carrying a full combat load of ammo, grenades, and other gear, plus two magazines for the M19 launchers", although the Master Chief was not carrying a Rocket Launcher at the time, and if he was, he was never seen using it. <ref>[[Halo: The Flood]], page 101</ref>
 *It also states that, when John ran out of ammo on his MA5B Assault Rifle, he switches to his M6D Pistol. There are no pistols on that level at all.
 *On the Truth and Reconciliation chapter, it states that a Marine was killed and, "his rocket exploded harmlessly..." No Marines were seen weilding a rocket launcher on that level, nor are any seen with them throughout the entire game.
