Marathon
From Encyclopedia Dramatica
Before becoming enormous sellouts to Microsoft and before creating the No.1 selling game among 13 year old aspies known as Halo, Bungie created this blatant Doom ripoff for the Mac called Marathon. This would have been considered the 2nd game ever made for Mac other than BOLO, but failed so hard that nobody even knew of it's existence. The only problem with this Doom clone was that they used aliens instead of zombies and tried to include things such as a story and plot. In the world of gaming any addition of something that makes the gamer have to think was an utter failure, seeing as people are only interested in seeing of tits, hell, dæmons, and hookers in their videogames.
[edit] Aleph One
Due to everything next-gen nowadays turning into the same generic crap that offers nothing more than lens flare, bloom, that layer of semen that makes everything shiny and Ragdoll Physics; gamers are actually turning to the past for something better. That combined with the fact that nostalgia is now trendy, some people made a free open source version of the marathon trilogy.
