      the reclaimer symbol is actually different, the marathon logo is just an easter egg in many places throughout the original trilogy (for example in 343 guilty spark's eye, or even right on the box for halo CE, appearing in the center of the logo)

      And even then, they were years ahead of their time. A multiplayer only game, a serious focus on story in action games, mouse look in shooters, rocket jumping, underbarrel grenade launchers, dual wielding, reloading... They did so much to pioneer the next twenty years of gaming. Bungie was a treasure.

      @@brethnew And in doing so they standardized the controls for shooters on console. Dual stick controls seem pretty obvious now, but back when Halo came out, many shooters were still using tank controls where you couldn’t move and look at the same time, or you had to use shoulder buttons to strafe.
      And after that Halo 2 went on to define modern matchmaking to the point that even PC games use it today. Bungie truly was special.

      It's super interesting starting at 6:03 when SameToken describes one of the considered plot lines for the OG Marathon as "bringing aboard artifacts to the Marathon..." especially considering we kept hearing about "artifacts" and "prime artifacts" in the Marathon ViDoc.

      They should do full 3D remakes of the trilogy ROTT 2013, Doom 4 & Doom Eternal style with a full 3D remake of Marathon Eternal as an expansion pack for Infinity’s one, followed by a proper Marathon 4. (Incidentally, Halo 1 was actually going to be Marathon 4 in a very early alpha story that has long been scrapped and Eternal was based on that version of Halo) Full level editing software as well like they did with the original Vulcan games (but a lot more user friendly than their Aleph One counterparts).

    It's worth mentioning here that Marathon, Marathon: Durandal, and Marathon Infinity are all currently available on iPhone and iPad. If nothing else it's a trip into the history of FPS game design at that time (not to mention a nostalgia trip for those of us who played the heck out of it at the time), and insight into the origins of concepts that would migrate their way into the Halo games. Of course, if you really want to see where the roots of Halo came from, both Marathon and the MYTH games had many elements that evolved into what became Halo.

    During my job in publishing house at 1994 played some Mac specific games. Pathways Into Darkness turned out awfully hard and due to permanent dark fog kinda depressing. Never finished it. But Marathon was a blast. Then employer business bankrupted and was able to finish the rest of trilogy after 15 years as Aleph One. It was still good. Marathon trilogy certainly need a proper remake. It would be a blast again. I remember original artwork and intermission screens - on decent engine views will be not less spectacular than in Halo MCC.

      That's because Marathon Infinite (the third game) had a level maker in it.

    I am looking forward to the M2 and Infinity retrospective. Thanks for bringing some attention to Marathon. The game seriously needs a reboot, maybe with the intended original Marathon story.

    Excited to see your take on Oni. It's like a caricature of everything 2001.
    The cringy American anime aesthetic of the early 2000's combined with The Matrix while also having interesting gameplay mechanics was like a recipe for chaos but it somehow worked really well.
