Damn these look great! Marathon looked really old too, these brought back the excitement of playing it again.
Much appreciation for the work that went into these packs. They all look great. I've heard some complaints, but I feel its a bit ass-holesh to complain. I personally think they take an old looking game and revive it a hole lot, all three packs rock! Lets face it, compared to todays standards this game looks like shit, and any improvements are more than welcome.
This guy did a great job and many thanks to him. These enhancement packs really help make it look great. I truly appreciate the work that went into this.
I loved it. If you want to play a simple kill everything in sight game with out having to search maps for switches and terminals, this is the scenario to play. Pretty simple maps but thats the point. You start off fresh with little health and no guns every map, but quickly your able to build your health and grab practically every weapon, this is a great concept! You're not forced to conserve ammo through out the scenario, but instead your strapped for war in minutes and blowing up aliens. You kill everything on the map, find a teleporter and you're done. This scenario embraces how awesome Marathon's shootem up game play is, and allows you to just enjoy that aspect of the game.
I thought this could be alot better. You can tell the creators have it in them to make this scenario kick ass due to the cleverness of the maps. Its was pretty fun at first, but half way through it I got too frustrated with it. Its just I feel you should have fun with Marathon, not have to sit there staring at the screen in map mode losing your desire to play. The key to a good game is the right balance of challenge and enjoyment, and this was just pure annoying. I still want to thank those who put this together and spent the time, it just needs a little tweaking. I would be interested in playing an updated version in the future.
