: You say Marathon was never a big cash cow, but I seem to remember it turning
: Bungie from "shambolic bunch of guysw with big ideas" into
: "bunch of guys with big ideas and enough money to pay people"...
...but not a lot of people, and not anywhere near what they were worth. That didn't happen until much later.
Marathon was successful for an independently developed and published Mac game, but that success was modest indeed when compared with titles like Starcraft or Myst. Those are cash cows. They're still selling 'em.
