Context: Marathon 2: Durandal is the first sequel in the "Marathon" series of science fiction first-person shooter computer games from Bungie Software.  It was released on November 24, 1995.  The game is mostly set on the fictional planet of Lh'owon, homeworld of the S'pht, and once again the player takes the role of a Security Officer from the "Marathon".  This is the only game in the series to be officially released for Windows 95 in addition to the Apple Macintosh, and is the only one released or announced for the Xbox 360.  Unofficially, the open-source Aleph One engine enables the game to be played on many other platforms.  This is legal as Bungie released the original game materials to the public in 2005, and Aleph One can employ them unaltered.

Halo is a military science fiction first-person shooter video game franchise created by Bungie and now managed and developed by 343 Industries, a subsidiary of Microsoft Studios.  The series centers on an interstellar war between humanity and a theocratic alliance of aliens known as the Covenant.  The Covenant, led by their religious leaders called the Prophets, worship an ancient civilization known as the Forerunners, who perished in combat with the parasitic Flood.  The central focus of the franchise builds off the experiences of Master Chief John-117, one of a group of supersoldiers codenamed Spartans, and his artificial intelligence (AI) companion, Cortana.  Other characters, such as Noble Six from "", are also introduced in the series.  The term "Halo" refers to the Halo rings: large, habitable superweapons that were created by the Forerunners to destroy the parasitic Flood.  They are similar to the Orbitals in Iain M. Banks' "Culture" novels, and less so to author Larry Niven's "Ringworld" concept.
