I have to completely agree with Hamish. Plus, this IS Bungie. C'mon, we've all played the Marathon series. We know what's up with this: visit ancient world, figure out what's going on before enemy does. It's only natural that Marathon 4 would have a similar link to this.
I wonder if they'll bring back the Hulk from Marathon, or maybe the original security drones...
