Today I just found a copy of Pathways into Darkness for windows and it is amazing. For those of you who don't know Pathways into Darkness was the first FPS created by Bungie ever. Pathways inspired Marathon also by Bungie and greatly affected how FPS's tell stories.
Now even though Pathways is only avaviable for mac the reason why I got Pathways working for windows is because Bungie released the source code for the sequel for Marathon, Marathon 2: Durandal, and a bunch of fan used the code to create an open source application with varying files capable of playing the entire Marathon Trilogy. A team of modders decided to port Pathways to the application called Aleph One.
Even though Pathways is not completely ported (its still in the beta stages), it is still worth getting this version, because unless you have a power mac, this is your only oppurtunity to play this amazing game. If you want to get it look for Marathon: Pathways into Darkness, its most likely the only way you can experience a huge step int video game story telling.
