Without this, there would have been no Master Chief.

@heliomass It’s great. I’ve been replaying it recently, but I keep dying in the lava on the last level.

Also I think the sequels had better level design, because replaying the first one left me with an aftertaste of forced puzzles I didn’t remember.

@oscherler The last level of Marathon 2? Yeah, that’s a tough one, especially the race at the end to get back before the whole level floods.

I always remember “Colony Shop for Sale Cheap” from the first game as being the most evil puzzle I’ve ever seen on an FPS.

@heliomass Of Marathon 1. You clean up the concentric rings, and then there’s a walk in the lava that I don’t know where I’m supposed to go, and I die.

Colony Ship for Sale is a pain. I solved it properly the first time, but this time around I looked up the timings online. Life is too short.
