I just downloaded them for iPad. They are free and for all iDevices.

I got them when they came out. I'm excited for Infinity to come out too. The achievements make it even more replayable than it already is, but controlling it on my iPhone isn't easy to get the hang of.

I was hoping it would have multiplayer sooner or later.

Tried it last night, it's a good port in the sense it runs perfectly, sounds perfectly, etc.

But the controls are awful. It needs dual virtual sticks, you can't aim and shoot and move at the same time as you're limited to two fingers. Needs to look at the Duke 3D and Doom controls and base it off that for controls that will actually let you beat a level.

In a time long past, the armies of the dark came again to the lands of men. Their leaders became known as the fallen lords, and their terrible sorcery was without equal in the west.
In 30 years they reduced the civilized nations into carrion and ash. Until the free city of Madrigal alone defined them. An army gathered there, and a desperate battle was joined against the fallen
Heros were born in the fire and bloodshed of the wars which followed and their names and deeds will never be forgotten

Is it out for android phones yet?

  • user homepage:

Dan (the creator of the port) didn't say anything about it. I was helping out with it and I got an android phone, so I asked him about an android port, but didn't say either yes nor no.

Only time will tell.

This is incorrect. The Underground (now the Bungie Universe) has always been and still remains the proper place for all oldschool Bungie game discussion, lore related or not. ("Oldschool" in this context means before Halo.)

There are not individual forums devoted to Pathways, Marathon, Myth, and Oni. Where do you propose such threads belong if not here?

A quick glance at the Universe stickies will reveal the thread discussing how to download and install the Marathon trilogy. This thread does not concern Marathon lore yet, seeing as it is stickied, it obviously still belongs in this forum.

The "lore discussion only" restriction applies only to Halo. The reasons for this are:

1. Each Halo title still has its own forum.

2. Halo lore topics generally include details from multiple games, meaning that they don't clearly fit into one of the specific game forums.

3. The Halo lore restriction ensures that Halo multiplayer, gameplay, mapmaking, or other similar threads clearly do not belong here.

I understand that the number of people interested in or even aware of Bungie's older titles is ever dwindling, however that does not make it right to try to push the few oldschool topics out of their rightful place on the b.net forums. I find it sadly ironic that someone who uses an avatar from Marathon fails to understand this.

Their everywhere!

Got both of these for my iPad. They control ok on the iPad but that one dude was right its really hard when running it on an iPhone I wouldn't recommend them if u want to play it on iPhone only. But I found if u have both an iPad and iPhone u can download joypad for your iPhone and control it for iPad with your iPhone. Its the best control scheme I can find

That is what I normally do. Even controlling it on just the iPad is way better than the iPhone. I don't really have a preference on whether the Joypad or iPad controls are easier.

Whenever I play on my iPhone, I use Master Chief mode and the Total Carnage difficulty setting.

Time will not tell.

If it's going to the Android, it will be a different developer.
