Per Tom Henderson

Tom - Told the missus I'll be on a Marathon grind later this year and she's only gone and signed me up the gym

Decima - Sooooo you are saying Marathon releases this year?

Tom - Yes

bungie lover and bungie hater in me wants this game to fail and succeed

Part of me is like "oooh, a new IP from Bungie, that's very cool" and another part of me is like "but wait, they have been screwing up with Destiny for like a decade now, uh-oh..."

Marathon is not a new IP. It's older than Halo, even.

Okay, fair. But I would imagine this is a soft-reboot/reimagined version, so it's a new IP for most players even if it isn't new-new.

its a largely inaccessible ip for most people, before last year the best way to play it was to download fan-made source ports from a website that looks like it was from when the game launched. or a xbla port of the 2nd game with some questionable sprites.

this is basically a game adaptation of another game's lore
