Dude, it would be so cool if we had these pregnant sentinels that were, like, all flaming and shot out baby flaming sentinels that would be all "YARRRGH!" then they'd be like, "WHAAAAR" when they shoot.

That'd be sweet.

No, noo...

On the Marathon level, "Colony Ship For Sale Cheap"
If you complete the stair puzzle in the level, and then go back where you started, on the way you'll see an entrance that wasn't there before.

Go down the stairs and read the terminal, you'll get a message from REB and Tophet,
one tells you're going to 'peace' then Tophet says your going to HELL.
Then you'll be teleported to a hidden level called "a good way to die."

What makes all this significant is that the message sent from tophet has a date on it stating when it was wrote, September 2003! (Mouth Open)(stunned expression)
I cant beat this level, it's really F***ing HARD.

But they'res got to be something special at the end Judging by the terminal at the beginning of the level tells you if you beat the level and read the final screen of the level, it tells you not to post it on the internet.

But it does let you give directions on how to reach the final screen yourself for other people.

From what I've seen so far, there are alot of paths to take, and Hulks EVERYWHERE!!!

If anyone can find this and beat it, dont spoil the end, just how to reach the end.

Ach! Was ist los?

This is one of those Easter Eggs that exists only in M1A1. It's a jab at the Marathon Secrets Guide version 1.5, which included "A Good Way to Die" as a fake "hidden level". The M1A1 people actually created it and put it in as a joke; as far as I know there's no way to beat it or kill the black Hulks.

The terminal contents are from the original (1994) Marathon application's resource fork. It's a request by Jason Jones that people not spoil the game by posting terminal text on the Internet.

Nice job on finding it, though. Now, have you found how to get to "Flashback"?

--Sgt. Smith loves Easter Eggs. Mmm, tasty...

There is a way to kill the black Hulks. I've done it. It takes many kilos of high explosives.

There has to be a way to beat "a good way to die."
I'll find it.
