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.
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)
@@mkevz it used to be the marathon logo, but in Halo 4 it was redesigned to look less like it for copyright reasons (same way the Autumn’s emblem was changed to the 7th column in REACH)
just saw it now and came here via algorithm. i was a halo kid and destiny addicted teen but fell off the past 2 years for tarkov and other extraction shooters.... im having a bungie relapse but it could not be more welcome
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. If Bungie backs up their ambition with the prowess we know they hold, man the new Marathon can be a MASSIVE hit
Marathon deserves more credit. It laid the foundation for some of the most important games ever. Without Marathon, there would be no Half-Life or Halo. Edit: the editing and presentation for this vid is incredible, good shit
Marathon sure started and inspired story telling in shooters. But i give John Carmack and the Quake engine the credit for Half Life being able to exist.
how does token not have more views, like seriously? good content, little ads, zero click bait, straight to the point, carefully written script, this guy puts in so much effort!
Maybe they could modify the story of Marathon, so that it takes place in the Halo universe, and add in some stuff from that game into the Halo games(besides the Security helmet and other easter eggs).
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).
5:20 This is good advice. If your game can hold the attention of someone with severe ADHD for more than an hour, you've got a masterpiece on your hands.
Growing up, my dad worked with a guy who did level design for Marathon Durandal and Infinity. Small world, and how I was able to get exposed to this brilliant series at such a young age! Very cool videos man, this game needs time in the spotlight again!
I'm a little disappointed that you didn't mention that the entire Marathon Trilogy was made free by Bungie and can be played on modern PCs easily, but I love the video otherwise!
Thanks cousin Alex for giving us many copies of the trilogy whenever I was a little kid. I had a great childhood playing the marathon trilogy, as well as myth
10:18 As a kid who grew up in an apple mac household and who would only get to play games at my PC owning friends houses....... this scene right here was something i replayed hundreds of time in the demo that shipped on a floppy disk on the front of a MacWorld magazine one month. I remember doing chores to get some money together and then phoning up to order this game. It was the first summer where i dedicated time to just playing through a video game........ magical.
Oh man I remember countless hours running around trying to figure out how to beat various levels. I'd play with a friend, we'd be taking notes, constantly having to discuss and debate what to do, where to go, etc.
All three games were made free in 2005, and the current Aleph One engine makes them playable on many modern systems. They’ve even been ported to iOS. They should also be really easy to pick up and play, since Marathon was the first game to introduce modern mouse look controls in a shooter.
Tried to look up ANYTHING about og Marathon once I heard that it even exist and there was almost nothing, only this video I found. Now I know some background, thank you! Can't wait for the new one coming!
As a Mac gamer, this is basically what I had. I remember getting the “games of fame” cd that had Warcraft 1, pathways, marathon, and some other games. Marathon really drew me in with its moody atmosphere, sound design and aesthetics. Seriously has one of my favorite machine guns in any game
Played the hell out of the Marathon series when I was younger. It was truly a huge leap forward. I took a lot of pleasure in pointing out the similarities in Halo when it came out years later, because almost no one had heard of it. Great memories.
my buddies and I used to play Marathon at our Mac Lab at UIUC back in 1994/1995. It was awesome because you could invite other folks on the network (dorms/etc.) and do multiplayer.
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.
Succinctly the best Marathan recap for beginners on youtube, though you could and should absolutely elaborate on the plot and the impact of of the emergent storytelling, and the legacy of every Bungie game involving an AI
Accidentally stumbled upon your channel and I just wanted to say I really enjoy your content. Very nice to listen and professional. Great job and looking forward to see more :)
So did some research it looks like we will be playing as Cybernetic Individuals on the City of TAU, that City the Marathon Ship was heading towards. And given the state of the moon I will wager that the Aliens and occupying and the citizens commissioned the ‘Runners’ to combat the Aliens and acquire lost tech to aid in the Resistance. However humanity is not unified in this regard, which is why teams of runners fight each other for the artifacts. I’m excited to see how this game will turn out.
The theme to the 2nd one was amazing. I loved that I could put the Marathon 2 disk into any CD player, skip the first track and that amazing theme would play...
Honestly i was curious what this game is by the new trailer marathon which it reccomend by youtube it was honestly interesting but learning it's history makes me wanna play the old school games
Man this brings me back. It started for me with the first game in the mid 90s. As the years went on it got better and better, one year I got the Marathon Trilogy Boxset for Christmas. My mom was the best. The boxset let you design your own levels as well, it was jam packed.
@@Chickensea10 MY jaw dropped when I saw it during the stream. Hope they honor the original properly. I think this is a different approach but we will see! Stoked to see them not forgetting what made them Bungie!
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.
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.
That’s an understatement! As a fan of Bungie’s stuff, I really enjoyed watching it all, as well as your interview with Seropian and Jones. Huge thanks for your involvement and insight from the time!
This was great. Really enjoyed it. Will pass it to my buds who played with me back in the day. Please do more about Bungie, like dig into Myth the Fallen Lords. Loved that too. Thank you!
My niche opinion. If Marathon got brought back, rebooted, remade, whatever... Joel Nielsen would be perfect for an updated vibe and soundtrack I feel. For those who don't know he did the soundtrack for Black Mesa, the rather impressive fan remake of Half-Life. A lot of good heart and emotion in them, and one track in particular (Questionable Ethics 1) got me curious about how Joel would handle a song like the Durundal Theme
The original Marathon was the game that got me into gaming. Sure, I played the Mario games and such before that but didn't have the same level of interest in gaming that I've had since.

I'm surprised you didn't mention that Marathon and Halo share the same gaming universe. Bungie acknowledged this as well.

windows vista version of halo 2 has marathon terminal text in the background of the main menu too.

It's crazy how significant Marathon is in the world of FPS's, and how little people know about it.
They literally invented mouse look
Marathon 2 baby
Yeah didn’t know about this just found out by PlayStation looks cool I wanna get into the lore
@@himawariuzumaki6066 The great thing is the Marathon Trilogy is free now! Google "Aleph One"

Oh yeah, it could be said it's the first of the FPS Genre and not just Doom clones which are now known as Classic FPS games.
Marathon sure started and inspired story telling in shooters.

Pretty sure Quake was more influential in HL becoming reality.

It cannot be overstated how excellent Marathon’s soundtrack is. Some serious bangers
I’d like to see this game remastered or something, it was great
See the Aleph One project.
Marathon 2 is remastered for xbox360
Maybe they could modify the story of Marathon, so that it takes place in the Halo universe, and add in some stuff from that game into the Halo games(besides the Security helmet and other easter eggs).

I’ve been wanting a marathon reboot for a long time
I haven't thought about Marathon in years. This video is gonna be a refreshing surprise.

Greetings from 2023
Bungee just announced a relaunch of marathon.
5:20 This is good advice. If your game can hold the attention of someone with severe ADHD for more than an hour, you've got a masterpiece on your hands.

With the recent news of a new Marathon, it was nice to kind of understand what it’s about. Good vid.
Here after the reboot announcement, thank the algorithm for steering me to such amazing content for once :)
I'm a little disappointed that you didn't mention that the entire Marathon Trilogy was made free by Bungie and can be played on modern PCs easily, but I love the video otherwise!
That's coming in the next episode! Thanks for watching :)
@@SameToken Sweet!
how can it be played i was looking for it
@@godzilla80192 Aleph One. It’s a source port that updates the game. Someone also ported it to IOS.
@@firemaker1258 There's also _Marathon Resurrection,_ which modernizes it as a UT99 mod. Aleph One is the vanilla experience to put it simply.
All the Marathon games have an amazing atmosphere.
Thanks cousin Alex for giving us many copies of the trilogy whenever I was a little kid. I had a great childhood playing the marathon trilogy, as well as myth
This documentary made me insanely happy. Thank you.

Pathways into Uranus is genius
I've never played Marathon, was slightly before my time, but I'm very excited for this video
Edit: This was fantastic
It's freeware now, easy to install too.
All three games were made free in 2005, and the current Aleph One engine makes them playable on many modern systems. They’ve even been ported to iOS.
They should also be really easy to pick up and play, since Marathon was the first game to introduce modern mouse look controls in a shooter.
I only knew about the main [Flower Game(s)] verses and the halo [Flower] franchises.
Unreal video. Such a special series to early Mac adopters. This vid unlocked a ton of dope memories, thank you.

The song Aliens Again playing while you protect the humans is honestly what solidified Marathon as my favorite old-school game.

Watching game devs eat pizza on the floor in the '90s is a perfect vibe. Feels like home.
This is one of the best made videos regarding Marathon i've ever seen, quality stuff
I'm here to learn about this with the new drop. I'm too excited.
I recall seeing Marathon 2: Durandal at the tech support branch of Strata back in the hey-day.
I also giggled when you called the Magnum a forty-five.
That’s awesome! And haha, not sure why I called it that. I’m even more surprised I didn’t notice as I edited in a close-up of the real name!
Love this series, I love halo and have for a long time but somehow never realized the potential Bungie demonstrated pre halo.
Glad to see another video on Marathon. I grew up watching my dad play that game, and soon played it in turn and grew to love it.

I still have yet to play Marathon. I probably should do that
...excellent series. Do you plan to launch episode 3 anytime soon?
Great video! Nothing beats Marathon's atmosphere or story for me, even today. I hope you cover Myth eventually. :)
You should definetly check out the history and lore of Destiny
