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."

These really should be in the story posted on Slashdot itself. No good reason to link to another site first...

Marathon Trilogy Website with the downloads of the games and the tools. Also the FAQ.

Aleph One website with the Free software client which will hopefully be compatible with all three of the released games.
