yeah youre right but by "halo style graphics" I really just mean modern day sci-fi fps graphics, its not like I'm asking for a new hud or anything like that. its just I think the game deserves a modern-day touch-up with cutscenes and the whole lot.
I'm curious as to how you think that style (Including gameplay style. Cutscenes? Really!?) could be ported into a modern engine.
I'm also curious as to why it needs to be; Marathon has aged just fine. It's extremely simple and stylized, so it takes some open-minded time to acclimate to if you're used to modern games, but it's quite beautiful and atmospheric once you get the hang of it.
And if you're going to modernize it to the extents that you described, you might as well call it an entirely new game. Doom 3 is a newer-styled interpretation of Doom, not an update of Doom or "Doom but better."

Again, though, cutscenes? Seriously? Pretty soon you people will be asking for equal movement speed in all movement directions, and maybe even reticles. Pfft.
