I'm in the same boat myself. Well, I beat Marathon years ago. I forget how long it took, but I do know that I played quite a lot. At the time I had to uninstall Brushstrokes in order to have enough space, that was a lot of swapping discs. We also hadn't upgraded to System 7 yet, so instead of quitting cleanly Marathon would crash on quit. I always wondered why they'd let a bug like that through.

I'm pretty sure I beat Durandal. I certainly remember the maps of the higher levels. Though I certainly don't remember them in as much detail as the original. I probably only played through to the end once. It's also possible that I only jumped to each level to see how it went. I also only got to Marathon 2 when the box set came out.

As to Infinity, I know that I beat the first level and I may have gotten past the second, but I think around that time I was entering college, or maybe that was when I moved and it drifted to the side.

I've got all the files for Aleph One and it's on my list to whip up and re-attack. PiD is on the platter as well. Thank you sheepshaver.
