Marathon Trilogy Available for Free Download

Thanks to Blues for the news that the games making up first person action series Marathon are available for download from Bungie.org. The classic series, arguably the precursors to Halo, made up some of the finest action gaming available on the Mac platform. From the article: "The Mac .sit-format files are currently available, and apparently there is an effort underway to create a PC-friendly version of this release compatible with the Aleph One Marathon-based OpenSource project."

Marathon V.S. every other FPS

[Needanewnick]

I still judge every FPS I play partially on how it compares to Marathon. Be it story, interesting play, mood or just fun.

What other games do people use as a base for comparisons in other genres?
