and AI's so sweet that they make Cortana seem like some protitute who fell into a vat of Ribena.

Marathon was the best game. I started with Marathon 2 when I was (thinking) 8? It scared me(the second level especially, but I eventual got back to it. As for AI's, I respect them after working with Durandal (sp?). He has very little regard for human life expect were it is useful. He would tare Cortana apart and eat her code for breakfast. I doubt the Monitor would have been a problem with Durandal around. Durandal is not sweet, and nearly immortal. You can't kill the guy no mater how many times you blow up his core memory, I know. You do it twice in Marathon 2 and Inf. Tyco there's another scary AI, he works for the aliens and likes it.
I thought Bungie gave up it's license on Marathon and made it opened sourced. So it seems unlikely that there will be a good remake anytime soon. Especially using Halo or Halo 2 engine. Isn't there a company of Bungie spin off employes who have access to the Halo engine?
