Bungie's Marathon for 360 makes the grade in Germany


Our lemonade stand colleagues over at Xbox 360 Fanboy may be one step closer to joining the Illuminati as their wild speculation has finally paid off. Mac gaming legend, Marathon: Durandal, looks to be compromising your Xbox 360 in the near future. The odds in favor of this arriving via Xbox Live Arcade are staggering.

Spotted on the USK website (Germany's take on the ERSB, if you will), the spiritual predecessor to the Halo series has received a 16+ rating, meaning that the sale of which is restricted to those under the age of 16, as mandated by the Youth Protection Law.

Or Jugendschutzgesetz, as they call it. Curious.

Being that Marathon: Durandal is in fact the sequel to the original Marathon, we're more curious as to why this popped up first. Now that we think about it, with Bungie's hands full of Halo 3, one must wonder exactly how they have the time to develop such a title. Suspicious, isn't it?
