Halo 3 Marathon Man achievement transcripts
According to our traffic reports, you, our valued readers, crave more data on the Halo 3 “Marathon Man” achievement. I will not lie, this warms my heart. It means that there are new players still trickling into the game, a phenomenon I heartily doubted would occur. At the very least, it means that old players who remained firmly entrenched in the multiplayer milieu, that denigrating digital pit of infamy, are at least taking a look at the campaign mode.
So, for your reading pleasure, I hereby confer upon you a series of posts which contain transcripts of these enigmatic forerunner structures taken directly from the game, along with my humble analysis of each. For the locations of these back story tidbits, refer to the excellent post by our very own Phil Madison via our not so very own GamesRadar. Enjoy!

Kutaragi to receive Lifetime Achievement Award from the AIAS
Ken Kutaragi, creator of the SNES sound chip and the entire Playstation line of game systems, stands poised to be the latest recipient of the Academy of Interactive Arts & Sciences’ (AIAS) Lifetime Achievement Award, which will be delivered at next year’s upcoming Design Innovate Communicate Entertain summit being held February 2008 in Las Vegas.
The press release for the award is appropriately glowing, with the following quote from AIAS president Joseph Olin.
Ken Kutaragi’s passion, innovative thinking and business savvy sparked a monumental movement that was unstoppable. If it wasn’t for Ken and his concept of the original Playstation, there wouldn’t be the billion dollar industry there is today. His contributions have clearly set new standards for developers, publishers and consumers worldwide.
To be fair, the reasoning is probably at least half-right. The game and some of the innovations of the first two iterations of the Playstation were nothing short of revolutionary. The PS1 made the concept of portable memory cards introduced by the Neo Geo a mainstream feature for a good number of years and fostered things, like making game cases the same size as traditional CD and DVD cases, that made gaming seem more in tune with bigger entertainment industries such as music or movies, if only superficially.
However, you could almost argue that he opened Pandora’s Box. The original Playstation was the first major entry a decade’s worth of shoddily-designed hardware, as anybody who has spent the worth of the console’s original street price on either repairs or replacements will tell you. With “Red Ring of Death” being a term of infamy among XBox 360 owners, the plague has spread beyond Sony’s walls now.
That’s to say nothing of Kutaragi’s efforts in recent years, which include a portable with a minimum of non-gimped, non-port, original software that, if the media at the time was any indication, made you look like a big, tough adult, and a console which costs about one month of the groom’s salary but has shown little to actually justify said price other than two upcoming single killer-app titles (assuming they stay exclusive, which is always subject to rumors).
But this is probably more about Kutaragi’s achievements prior to then, rather than his failures afterwards.

Halo 3 Marathon Man achievement revealed
So, you’ve beaten Halo 3 on Legendary, you’re a headshot honcho, pink mist sprayer, laser master, and your online medal chest looks like that of a war hero and you’ve even found all 13 skulls But you still only have 960 out of 1000 possible achievement points. You just can’t find that last terminal to unlock the coup de grace, the illusive Marathon Man achievement.
The achievement is a thinly veiled way of Bungie giving props to its past. Terminals such as these were used in the FPS, Marathon, developed during the early days of Bungie and were used to reveal plot before the days of voice overs. And in Halo 3, they are intentionally difficult to locate, but once all seven are found a forty-point achievement is unlocked.
If you are finding this one tough to unlock then the folks at GamesRadar have discovered the secret. In order to unlock the Marathon Man achievement in Halo 3 you have to find, activate, and read through seven terminals scattered throughout the single-player campaign.
