In Response To: Marathon 4 ? (Evilvid)

: Is Bungie ever gonna continue the Marathon series? I wish they would

I hope they don't! Even though Marathon is the greatest game of all times...No wait - not "even though"... Just because of this, it would be impossible for anyone, including Bungie, to ever manage to create anything near its greatness.

Besides, if a sequel to Marathon was suddenly announced, we would all overhype it, extol it to the skies and except something of the second coming.

We would be disappointed.

It is better to keep things as they are now: they announce something we don't know anything about, but when they are finished with the project our hyping has not yet exceeded the greatness of that game.

But...I must say, even though Halo's graphics were way ahead of other games, I found the story a bit unsatisfying. Are Bungie slacking off? (I hope I will have to eat those words when I play Halo 2 ;)
