It would be absolutely criminal if they remade the game and didn't contact you about using this art for the cover.

Oh man, a Pathways into Darkness remake would be killer.Β

Hi there ! I know your last comment on this art was posted a long ago, but I'm a bit frustrated because I can't find your Pathways Into Darkness Print on your Society6 profile. Can you help me please ? I really want to buy this! I'm a huge Bungie Studios fan!

Hey there!Β
Unfortunately, the piece was taken off Society6, due to a copyright claim. Didn't expect it at all, it's not like I'm using assets from the game or anything, but ah well.Β
I may upload it to my redbubble in the future, but I also don't want to be handed another warning. :/

Thank you for answering! I can understand you don't want to have another copyright claim, but I would really like if you would put the PiD piece available for buying on redbubble because redbubble supports french language and it seems that it's more safe to buy art from redbubble than Society6.

Will do! I'll have to search for my original hi-res file to upload, but I'll let you know once I post it!Β

Someone should make a port of this to Xbox, like how Freeverse ported Marathon 2 to Xbox.

Yeah, but I sure hope they'd change the interface. PiD's interface was so irritating. I thought that the Marathon port was pretty good, though I think I prefer playing it on a mac.Β

I still have my old manual for it somewhere, with that damned false bomb code. I emulate it sometimes to play it a bit when I'm bored. Bungie should remake/Port it honestly. Β I remember reading somewhere that people fit the games story into Marathon's. But anyways, I really dig the poster, it says a lot to people who remember the game.

It was in the fan-made port 'Aleph One' where the two stories meshed together a bit at the beginning of the game. There is a modern conversion I believe where it uses PiD's game but with Marathon's more convenient interface (PiD's was super irritating) called Marathon: PiD or Marathon: Pathways into Darkness. Can't remember if it was completed, but it might be worth checking out.Β
Bungie needs to revisit both this and Marathon, I sincerely hope they tackle one of them after Destiny.Β
Thanks a bunch! Glad you like it!

Beautiful work!
Good to know someone else remembers this classic.

Thanks a bunch! Bungie's earlier titles were great, PiD and Marathon were so strange and had such layered stories.Β

Exactly! Everything Bungie later did with terminals, crazed AIs, and, oh, say vast creeping alien intelligences started in Marathon and PiD!

Yup! Marathon to me has the best story in any game I've ever played, but without sacrificing gameplay like many games now. Same with PiD, though its interface didn't have much to be desired.
I wish Bungie would give Marathon more exposure and even though I'd probably love the originals more, I wish they'd create a reboot. They obviously still love their property, and it still belongs to them, unlike Halo. I know that after Destiny, they do have some plans relating to Marathon, but what I don't know.Β

I hadn't heard that! Good to know they're taking full of advantage of their remaining properties.

Um.
Could you make this a print?
Can I buy this off you?
Perfection.

It's actually posted over here as a print if you'd like to buy from Society6. They do have nice quality. Thanks for taking interest by the way!Β

Love this design. Very graphically pleasing to the eye with a tinge of creepy.

I'll admit I've never heard of it...but DAMN, this poster kicks ass.

Ha, thanks man!
The game itself has a very annoying HUD interface, but the story, like Marathon's is amazingly layered and eerie.Β
