In Response To: Re: The First Marathon Is The Best (Ryanman)

: I agree as well.

: The story line was easy enough to follow without having to get on usenet to
: discuss it and the mood was just so...visceral. It was the first game ever
: to make me duck my head in real life.

: For me though the greatest difference, by far, was the music. If I could ever
: say that Bungie made a moronic move it was forgoing music in favor of
: those dorky ambient sounds in M2 & MI.

: I still listen to the tracks today and they still evoke memories of the first
: level in which I heard each one of them. That's powerful.

: Ryan

I haven't heard M1 music but the ambient sounds are not dorky they make the game alot more realistic. And I don't believe M1 is the best Marathong game I belive M2 is. It didn't just have dingy spaceship corridoors it took you to cool outdoor environments, caves and ancient S'pht structures. It had multiple and bigger landscape. It improved the graphics and stroy. It added liquids. MI I've never really gotten far in. As for M1 I don't like the sound effects in M1 that much. Alot of them are pretty corny such as the riochet. The ones in M2-MI are more realistic. Same with the look of the wepons, some looked pretty corny in M1 like an old Sci-Fi movie. They improved with M2. Also I find the hunter more intimidating in M2. The spikes really add to the effect. So to sum it up in the order of my most faverioute M2,M1,MI
