Yes, loved that nighttime landscape. Those backgrounds, even if there weren't many of them, and when they did show up, most of it was obscured, they gave a really cool sense of eerieness and atmosphere.

Thats one thing i really love about bungie and the games they make. They seem really big on atmosphere and ambience when it comes to alien environments. This is really evident in marathon 2 with awesome backdrops like this. I also picked up on alot of it while playing Halo CE, mainly during the later levels that have you exploring the alien tunnel environments.

one day, im gonna work for bungie

I'd love to work for Bungie, especially if they decide to actually reboot Marathon.

maybe thats what they are doin for their new IP? I would honestly love another marathon game, especially since marathon 2's ending is kinda open ended (in between the actual game ending and the epilogue)

Yeah, for sure. Heck, I'd settle for a complete remake of M1 in the style of Halo 3.

I agree. I know that they re-released marathon 2 on XBL but with updated graphics. the reviews were kinda stupid though :/. They graded the game down for being too "dated" which is a big "well no shit" moment considering the game was made in 1995 -__-

maybe we'll get a little taste of a next gen marathon in bungies new game hopefully!

I could totally see Spaceman Spiff running around this. And that is some sexy fog.
