: Marathon Infinity had a deep, non-linear story full of literary allusions;
: intricately designed, non-repetitive levels; a distinct lack of gimmicky
: vehicles or zombies; and you didn't navigate (if that's what you can call
: muddling through a console FPS) with a kludgy dual joystick that aimed for
: you while you sat on the couch. It's a comparison I would dispute even if
: Halo weren't popular--and it stings the most because the same company
: (ostensibly) made both, in the order they were made in.
: Most good games are fun--that's their purpose. But the great ones are more
: than that.
In a lot of ways, yes. But the Pfhor/Covenent. Jjarro/Forerunners. All the similar weapons. Similar use of friendly NPCs. Assistance from a friendly female AI (Cortana/Leela) who later goes quite thoroughly rampant.
Not the same game, maybe. But Marathon as it would have been made in 2000 instead of 1994.
