User blog:KillRoy231/Is the game canon?

Wikipedia acts like it is, and Max's article lists his death there.

Though, I'm a bit iffy about this because Wayne said that David Palmer "arrested the man behind the attempt on his life", which is Max, and Trepkos didn't really know anything about that. Which seems to contradict his being shot by Jack.

So, is the game actually canon to the show?
