Just as AAA studios are cutting budgets left, right and centre, Bungie's gone and broken the mold. It brought in an Oscar-winning director for its Marathon reveal cinematic, and it looks incredible.
Gamers have been divided over the vibrant colours and glitchy Wipeout-influenced art style of Bungie's new Marathon game. The verdict on the new reveal cinematic short should be less contentious. Calling it a 'reveal cinematic short' is really underselling it. This is a mini sci-fi movie with stunning animation, an intimate narrative – and, yes, a lot of killing.
