  • I was forced be to on account of needing a Mac for college. Thought Marathon fucking dreadful at the time and it really put me off Bungie games. Whichever Halo I played on the 360 did little to change my mind.

  • What was it about it that you didn’t like?

    It seemed to create an atmosphere, mostly with the sound and music, but also the lighting, that I’m not sure I saw equalled for a long time. Plus it wasn’t just ‘kill all the bad dudes’ as Doom was at the time. Although the puzzles were constrained by the engine, which meant they weren’t always rewarding.

  • Possibly that it wasn't just 'kill all the bad dudes' :)

    Or more likely that I remember it just feeling really clunky compared to Doom on the PC, dunno if that was due to performance or something else. Probably the fault of the hardware, cos I had Doom 2 on the Mac and that was terrible as well.
