Marathon review

If Arc Raiders showed the world what an extraction shooter is, Marathon demonstrates, in unambiguous fashion, what extractions shooters are about. Whatever anomalous conditions coalesced to make Embark's game so oddly affable (at least in solos), they are entirely absent among the abandoned megastructures of Tau Ceti IV. The phrase "Don't shoot!" would have any seasoned Shell runner cackling in your face, were it not for the fact that those... Read more
