User blog comment:John Alfred Hammond, CEO/Civilized Talk on the Pointers to JP:TG as Canon/@comment-17754282-20141126213746/@comment-6493791-20141127051820

I try to frequent how I don't side with the JP:TG canonicity, I just look at the factors to use. Considering many (original) Jurassic Park filmmakers addressed the game as a tie-in to the film, and that there are no (obvious) contradictions other than recasting Gerry Harding (without the likeness of Gerald R. Molen), the Game's presumed continuity seems to fit the film canon.

That being said, I too have many issues with the game. I also think that they should've used Gerald R. Molen's appearance for Harding, and if not simply make a new character. There's also the abundance of unknown characters (Sorkin in a "Field Lab" on Nublar?), a secret Marine Facility, etc. These all annoyed me, and many smaller details did as well (the map, new tour voice, etc.)

My point is, I can see where you're coming from. But this isn't like we're combinding info from the novels and the films, as they are parallels of one another but completely different in many ways and instances.
