>Marathon began development in reaction to DOOM
Actually untrue. I don't care about the "who did it first" debate but I feel the need to point out that Marathon went through multiple versions before we got what we know today. Marathon was originally based on Pathways into Darkness, a previously released Bungie game (and even features reoccurring characters from PiD such as the Jjaro or W'rkncacnter). Bungie decided they didn't like it and scrapped most of their work and made it be more like Doom and less like PiD. If you ever wondered why Marathon has so many cramped corridors, it's because it was based on an dungeon crawler like game originally, not Doom.

Pic related. THIS is what Marathon originally looked like
