With the Marathon's BoB (Born On Board) crew quickly being exterminated by the titanic Hulks, Blackstar and Narcogen have to find a way to fight back, find the level's secret terminals, and find a way out.

Narcogen from Rampancy.net and Cody Miller from HaloReachIsNotCanon.net take a look at the premiere of gameplay in Bungie's upcoming shared world shooter, Destiny.

The Marathon's crew are under vicious attack from the Pfhor and their massive allies, the gargantuan Hulks! We must save as many crewmembers as possible... or not. Armed only with sticks, stones, and harsh language (redacted) Blackstar and Narcogen muddle their way through this horticulturally themed Marathon level.

Adam Sessler of Rev3Games interviews Bungie's Joe Staten at E3 2013. Thanks to electricpirate who posted this in the Destiny.Bungie.Org forum.

Joe Staten and Jason Jones participate in a "public event" against Fallen enemies in the first public demonstration of Destiny gameplay. Destiny portion of the video begins at 2 hours and 3 minutes.

Bungie's official trailer showing the first look at actual gameplay in Destiny.

Durandal has gone Rampant, and is in contact with the Pfhor and S'pht aliens currently infesting the Marathon! Leela wants us to flip some switches that will apparently help with... something. Not really sure what. Of course, before the switch-flipping comes the Pfhor-killing, and there's plenty of that to do in this level, including the new variant mentioned last episode by Leela-- the Pfhor Trooper.

Leela has produced three chips to replace the damaged ones and reactivate Marathon's automated defense system. On the way, Narcogen and Blackstar notice similarities in both enemy and level design between Marathon and Halo.

YouTube user toolsmyth (Bo Lindbergh in the Marathon Story Page's forum) has posted some gameplay from the first level of Bungie's first shooter, Pathways Into Darkness, now available in the App Store for the Apple Macintosh.

Leyvin360 on YouTube also has a Let's Play series for the game that he started last year.

Narcogen and Blackstar play Level 3 of Bungie's classic sci fi shooter, Marathon: Never Burn Money. Leela tasks us with recovering three chips to repair the Marathon's defensive system, and on our own we attempt to reach an isolated and cryptic terminal that may hold the secret to the identity either of the mysterious security officer who is the player's avatar, or the even more mysterious door-controlling Durandal we have yet to meet.

We've gotten some useful feedback on past episodes, and I'll just acknowledge it here:

Blackstar and Narcogen continue playing through the classic Bungie scifi shooter and precursor to Halo, Marathon.

Special thanks again to Craig Hardgrove for his excellent soundtrack remixes.

Wait after the credits for a short bonus of one (easy) grenade hop and the infrared goggles.
