Rating: 3.25/5 from 24 reviews Not like the first two by BungieTediousI've been a huge fan of the Myth series. I was a huge fan of Marathon as well (another ground-breaking Bungie game series). So, I was really looking forward to Myth III. Unfortunately, I found that while the graphics were somewhat upgraded, the gameplay suffered tremendously with the transfer of the game to Mumbo Jumbo. It was just no fun. Everything is a slog-fest. Keep playing the levels over and over and you'll eventually get through, but there is no subtlety, no style, no real interest. No fun. I quit after level 5. Everything runs ponderously on my machine, too, even though I have decent hardware. I think the move to a fully 3D engine cost more than it benefitted the game. I hope Bungie does great things for XBox. It would be a real shame if their light is gone from the world of gaming. Fun, and awesome graphics!The graphics are really beautiful, there is no question about it. The human figures look like they have real skeletons, rather than the bloblike humanoid forms you see in other inferior game graphics. The programming team should be commended for doing such a good job on visuals. In addition to looking awesome, it is really fun to play. What more could a gamer want? | ||||||||||||||||||
What happened to the terrain mesh deformation when a wight exploded. That wasn't included in Myth III. Maybe the original programmers decided to not release that with the engine. Its not that difficult to do. Why didn't the Myth III programmers include it and other surprises.
I have only gotten to the 3rd map and am not very impressed. Maybe it will get better but I anticipate not. The first two maps were very dark and the camera controls under those circumstance made play less to be desired.
I gave this game 3 stars as opposed to one becuase the grphics are very good. Play is not as fun as the first two and multiplay is none existent. Lucky to find 12 players on Gamespy. What happened to Bungie's servers? Did they completely dump the game? It was easy to get a game on their server but that was a few years ago.
