I think more Halos would be really really awesome. But I also feel that more Halos may cause the series to lose it's selling flair and individuality. If Bungie's plan was to make more 360 Halos I don't see why they would have broken it off with Microsoft. Personally I feel that the best thing would be to continue the series, since it is really a great game- I don't see how the playability can get any better, and if they want to merge it with Marathon in a "Star Wars-prequel fashion" that would be fine with me. Being able to use the Security armor, access terminals, the SPNKR on the rocket launcher, the relative time frames, and the existence of symbols from Marathon can be found all over the Halo series (on an avatar, on the ship, on people's medals). Perhaps this may be an indication that this could be the case. Also hints that it will come together like star wars: well i'm really just kidding- but I did notice the ending is like a death star and the inside name for Guardian was Jub-Jub (which is a reference to Jar Jar Binks). Keep in mind this is mere speculation, many things could just as likely be tribute. I've never played Marathon, it would be cool if any Marathon Vets out there could speak their mind.

forgive me if I have posted this to soon. but i have been wondering this even before halo3's release. Not to long ago, i read an article about bungie and I believe the article was game informer if i am correct. As I am typing this I am pulling the issue out right now. *ahem*. ok it says on the title left side page 50 loose talk. it is a small title that says "Whats Next For Bungie?". this basically explains what i was thinking about. anyway heres what it says. "By now you've likely finished the single player for Halo3, and astute eyes have picked up on what might be an indicator for Bungie's next project. The company may be going back to the beginning and resurrecting the Marathon series for a full next-gen experience. The original intent was for the Master chief and Marathon's protagonist to be one in the same, with the first mac game taking place 250 years after halo. In Halo 3 there are other hints, such as the game's ending and a marathon related achievement."

That is what it said in the article. it might be clear that the guy's at Bungie are either thinking about making another marathon game. or they just miss the good old days on the mac. you can have your own opinion on what they might do next. Because I, just like you, have no idea exactly at this moment. Know what their going to do next, and would like to find out. i personally couldn't play the new remade marathon on the Xbox 360 because it gave me motion sickness. but hopefully "if" or "when" they make a new one it will not make you sick to your stomach. But anyway. I will give you the freedom to ad your own opinion on what game Bungie might make next.

Thank you,

I'm no Marathon vet but I sure do love the series and I sure as hell think that they should either come out with a new Marathon game or remake the entire trilogy to be released newer systems. And as previously mentioned the ending of Halo 3 is sort of like the beginning of Marathon and yes even is Master Chief is the protagonist in Marathon it is still possible for Marathon to take place 250 years after Halo because of the length of time cryo tubes are able to support a person in suspended animation.

It is my personal belief that most Bungie games occur
in same universe, and this is how it goes in chronological order.
Pathways into Darkness > Halo > Marathon
