Marathon 2 is a distance runner, and with all its perks and goodies should more than tide over the 3-D shooter fanatic until the totally customizable Marathon Infinity comes out for the PC.

A Marathon title on XBLA could have been a fantastic way for Halo fans to see their favorite developer's roots, but thanks to bad controls and an illness-inducing interface, the game struggles to even serve as a window into the past.

A blast from the past that should have stayed unblasted. Play the free version if you must.

Where the action of Doom’s XBLA debut sucked me back in, I didn’t have quite the same attraction to Marathon: Durandal, especially considering the stomach-churning byproducts of its “new and improved” look. It’s a good, smart shooter, but I don’t think it’s aged as well given its more deliberate pace.
