After watching this video (http://download.microsoft.com/download/F/6/4/F64625E5-A293-4DFB-8EF8-F5F73B68B01D/studiotour021706.mov), it appears that Bungie's next project is a Marathon sequel (or as seen it the video: "Marathon IV")!

Look carefully at this video frame:

It faintly resembles "Marathon IV".

That woudl be pretty crazy you know. Hard to aim cuz he'd keep looking different ways and stuff and you'd be trying to run your character into his line of sight.

But still... there's potential for SPS's!

I hear they're working on two projects. Halo 3 is one, maybe this is the other.

GOW better be both FPS and TPS, cause I hate TPS.. I liked the first Socom and enjoyed it alot with the online play, however FPS is where its at. In TPS you cna "cheat" to much, with being able to look around the corners and stuff.

What's so special about Marathon? People talk about it like they played it so many times, I doubt half of them even knew about the series until Halo came out.

Yup, I for one have never played it, and if you haven't owned a mac, then it's unlikely that you've played it.

on the bungie vid, the exact moment he was standing in front of that board with marathon written on... he was saying some thing like "we have to be extra careful about secrecy etc... wouldn't want to give any clues"
i reckon the marathon thing is some kind of joke / false trail for the rumourmongers....

it has to pimps at sea. it must be.

Pimps at sea, for sure. There's no doubt, have you seen the screenshots?

I definitely think that was put there to mislead. It seems like something Bungie would do. Halo is just too big a franchise now for them to put it aside. I can't imagine them not working on Halo 3. I bet this year's E3 will shed some light on the situation.

Lol. Well, I've heard they're working on two projects, maybe pinks at sea will come to fruition. That monkey in the picture I posted on page 1 looks AWESOME.
