	In Response To: Super Marathon at the GDC 2012 (swolf) : Last week I had the opportunity to flog the game I am working on at the GDC : (specifically at the GDC Play Pavilion), where the Museum of Art and : Digital Entertainment were also hosting a History Of 3D Games exhibit. : They were showing off a handful of influential 3d games from the last few : decades, Among which was a Pippin, running a copy of Super Marathon: : http://www.moonbase-industries.com/stuff/IMG_0221.JPG : (sorry for the bad quality, indoor iphone shot) : It was pretty neat! The controls took some getting used to but it was very : playable. I never thought I would be able to see one of these things up : close, let alone play it. : They also had a still-in-shrinkwrap boxed copy of Marathon on display (which : I didn't get a picture of, but I am pretty sure they got off the same : person who is/was selling a bunch of these on ebay, mentioned a few weeks : ago here.) Cool stuff! Cool. I am curious. Why show Marathon on a Pippin? Was the idea to show the Pippin gaming machine with a cool shooter. If it was to show Marathon why not on a Mac from '94/'95. Cheers Hamish
