I don't know how many replies I'll get on this because I don't know how many people have played the game before. But here goes.
Which Marathon that isn't in the original Marathon series is the best?
Eternal (this one just came out in February 2008)
Tempus Irae
Rubicon X
Evil
Morgana's Revenge
Red
There may be a few more, but I think these are all of the main ones. If you've never heard of Marathon, I highly suggest you look into it, and I'll copy the instructions on how to get it from my other post. Here they are:
Download the latest version of AlephOne here: http://source.bungie.org/get/
AlephOne is the emulator for the Marathon games. It's the middle set of boxes, make sure to choose the correct one for your operating system.
Next, download Marathon from the same place. It's the first box, the one with the word "Marathon" on it.
After that, you'll need to unzip both of the files you've downloaded. Then duplicate the AlephOne application and put it in the "Marathon" file. Finally, open AlephOne (the one in the marathon file) and start playing.
You may want to check the controls in the preferences before you start playing. I set move forward to 'w' backward to 's' sidestep left and right to 'a' and 'd' and trigger with the mouse button and 2nd trigger with the left mouse button. Make sure to turn on mouse control, unless you have a laptop and want to play with only the keyboard. Also, set the graphics to full screen mode, and a higher resolution.
Also, there are other scenarios (like the second and third marathon, durandal and infinity) that you can download and put the alephone app into. You may want to try some of these.
