AHHH!

Welcome to the Wiki. Please don't go Rampant on us. *wink* --Day 10:12, 8 January 2006 (EST)

I was born rampant. Durandal 13:15, 8 January 2006 (EST)

Wow. And I thought I was the only one who remembered the old "Marathon" games. I still have all 3 on my Mac and play them on business trips. "Frog blast the vent core!" never sounds so sweet. You guys know that the games are free to download now? Oh, and welcome to the Wiki, Durandal! --Spencerian 12:49, 8 January 2006 (EST)

Actually, I'm a 'Thon nut. My iBook is named Mjolnir X, my old *nix box is Traxus, my iPod is Leela... Need I go on? Durandal 13:15, 8 January 2006 (EST)

Didn't this guy escape the universe and become a god or something? --Redwall 13:07, 8 January 2006 (EST)

Not quite a god, but close enough for colonial work. *grin* Durandal 13:15, 8 January 2006 (EST)

As any good Greco-Roman major knows, Durandal was Hector's sword at Troy, which passed down to Roland, knight of Chalemagne, in the aptly named "Song of Roland" (Chanson de Roland). Many of the Marathon computers had names taken from it. Bungee (the company that made Marathon) seems to agree in thinking that no one actually played these, as many plot points in Halo (also by Bungee) are kind of taken from it, i.e. (Spoilers) Cortana seems to be in the process of going rampant like Durandal. Sublte hints in Halo 1, full blown twist ending in Halo 2, etc. etc. --Ricimer 18:21, 8 January 2006 (EST)

I'm pretty sure you just made up that bit about Hector... --Peter Farago 18:30, 8 January 2006 (EST)
