Thats just an early render of the MC. Its looks a bit like marathon b/c thats bungies style. Also Marathon and Halo have some similarities but they are mostly different, if not completely.

Its not a continuation, the two stories are 200 some years apart (if I remember right).

But whats the story of marathon?


Something like your ship (the Marathon) is floating around and is randomly attacked by aliens. Actually, I can't remember. You should download it here. All you have to do is double click the green icon named "Aleph 1" to run it. Also, you might want to make a desktop shortcut.

It has some holes, but sort of makes sense. But I'm sure Bungie took some detail of the Marathon dude for the MC, just because he looked cool.

Not the same guy. Halo takes place hundreds of years before marathon (So no,the guy from Marathon is not a forerunner).

Are they connected? I have no idea,I have never played Marathon.
