In Response To: Re: Eternal Story Analysis (Forrest of B.org)

: I'm a little confused about this. How do you mean, it claims to be an item?
: There are some little glowing hover-orbs on that level (which you'll see
: more of much later in the game), but they are stationary monsters, not
: items that you can pick up.

: The "balls" in the inventory isn't something new to Eternal either,
: that's a standard part of Marathon. I'm surprised it's showing up in
: single-player mode, though, unless you actually picked up a ball
: somewhere...

Before I got any items at all I could cycle through ALL the inventory sections. There was items, weapons, ammo, balls, powerups, weapon powerups... probably something else. I tried looking at them after I had got stuff and noticed I couldn't access them now that I had picked up items.

And I say it was an item because as I have stated I was lost, so when I saw it I was like "This is cool, I wonder if there's anything my map might reveal" and it stated that the ball that was on the ledge in front of me was an item (that's what blue dots are, right?). I may pull out a screen on Friday, after finals are over and I can play Marathon without fear of my parent's retribution :p
