*In ''[[Halo 3]]'', Cortana states several of Dr. Halsey's quotes from this book during Cortana moments, such as: "Can I speak with you please? What's your name? It's very nice to meet you. You like games? So do I.", "You have been called upon to serve, you will be trained...and you will become the best we can make you. You will be the Protectors of Earth and all her Colonies.", and "Could you sacrifice yourself to complete your mission? Could you watch him die?" In the game, "yourself" and "him" are changed to "me", referring to Cortana. This may be because Cortana was [[Rampancy|going rampant]]; as she was created from Dr. Halsey's mind, she would view herself as Halsey when reviewing the memories. | *In ''[[Halo 3]]'', Cortana states several of Dr. Halsey's quotes from this book during Cortana moments, such as: "Can I speak with you please?

*Bungie considered canceling the book to allow players to see the Master Chief as a blank slate, and because of concerns that the book would not sell enough units to be worth the effort.

Trautmann]] convinced Bungie to approve the book, and it carried a dedication to him until it was reissued in 2010 by a different publisher.<ref>[http://scifishow.libsyn.com/005-dc-reboot-trautmann-interview-round-2-of-our-quiz '''The Sci Fi Show''': ''Episode 005: DC Reboot/Eric Trautmann'']</ref><ref>[http://ericnylund.com/?p=1256 '''Eric Nylund''': ''Unsung Hero of the HALO Franchise'']</ref> | *Bungie considered canceling the book to allow players to see the Master Chief as a blank slate, and because of concerns that the book would not sell enough units to be worth the effort.
