Marathon Preview
Bungie always get me with their announcements and hype for upcoming releases and they showed off some Marathon gameplay last week. It does look excellent.
I play a lot of Destiny so I have no doubt the gameplay will feel brilliant but I don’t know if I will personally enjoy the extraction shooter part. It sounds stressful and potentially frustrating. My main fear is there will be a lot of being killed by invisible players out of nowhere if Destiny PvP is anything to go by. I will give it a go at least.
The cinematic they made is also extremely good.
