In Response To: Marathon mentioned in Outside Xbox Video *LINK* (Tim "Mordeir" Branin)

"Failed Video Games"

Hrk. I mean, I don't think Marathon ever financially out-performed Doom/Duke Nukem 3D/what have you, but "failed" is rather harsh.

Not super-interested in watching the vid, so like: do they suggest that half the problem was that the Doom crowd typically didn't (and, based on some modern reactions to Marathon I've seen, still don't) like extensive reading in their shooty games?
