In short, in marathon, you are a security officer aboard the sub-light speed colony ship UESG Marathon. The colony Tau Ceti and the marathon are attacked by a collection of species known as the Pfhor, and you, with the help of the Marathon's AI's, fight them off! Marathon 2 and Marathon Infinity continue the story.
There are a million "similiarities" b/n Halo and Marathon. There are hunters in both, which appear somewhat similar. Colors distinguish rank. The SPNKR is present in both. There are lots more, and its often argued that Halo and Marathon take place in the same continium, however, serious analysis only leads to more holes than solutions. :/ Play marathon! Its free, its fun, and its BUNGIE!
