: Well I will always disagree with you. And why do you include Rubicon among
: all the other third party scenarios??? Rubicon isn't a sequel to Marathon.

::stabs eyes out with a spoon::

Neop, the criteria you've based your opinions on (which are apparently fascinating enough to share with an entire forum?) seem entirely ridiculous and trivial. Your first 2 points consisted of minor gripes about the audio which is incredibly sub par anyway and doesn't factor into the overall gameplay experience (by the way, bungie did NOT make the sound effects).

And, if what you actually meant by Bungie "completely screwing it up" is "Going to the proverbial Level design and Art School" and "Writing a storyline which is by far more accessible and digestible by your average armchair gamer" AND "This is the bit where I explain futily that Rubicon was not made by bungie, and is just one of many excellent 3rd party scenarios available" then I feel sorry for you and suggest you go revel in other triumphs of well thought out gameplay such as ID software products.

Or maybe you could play Colony ship for sale again and scoff at how much better it is than All roads lead to Sol.
