Ok, anyone that has played Marathon will know what I'm saying, but if you haven't http://source.bungie.org/ (there a is a windows version there too!).

Ok so my idea is that we make a Marathon mod with all the same Weapons and Aliens an shit, but without the horrible graphics (they weren't that bad for its time tho). I have no idea why, it just sounds kick-ass from this side... any thoughts?

What are you talking about? Marathon's graphics are amazing! But sounds like a meh mod, may be interesting if done well but if not it will just suck.

being sarcastic, either that or honest. Halo does not need a marathon port, it is easier to do it on Marathon and make a Halo Port. think about it, change all the animations for the weapons, the models would be difficult, and the skinning might be a challenge because Bungie did not give us much to work with besides the bad graphical quality skins from the original game.

so no one has done a Marathon for Halo?
And I was thinking it would be a better looking marathon.
*Idea* maybe Bungie should make a Marathon 4 for XBox 360! Now that Bungie is one of the most known companies in the world, They could make:
A: A new Marathon 1 for players to understand wtf is happening
B: Create Marathon 4
C: Marathon 0.5 this way they could connect it to the end of Halo and start the beginning of Marathon (and then they could continue with Marathon 1-3 then have the universe Blow up and no one was seen again... maybe)
Either way, it sounds kickass to me

Getting off track here... This is going to lead to a topic about a "Halo 4".

this would be a good mod if the marathon game was newer and had weapons you could actually distinguish.
