For all you people who have never played this game, I strongly recommend that you get the whole trilogy. It has great graphics, units, and a good story line.

I loved Myth & Mtyh II. That said, this game falls way short of what I expected. I read all the hype and seen the screen shots and thought that was what I was getting. And I guess I did: Window dressings.
First, what is good about the game? If you have a high end computer, you get to enjoy some very detailed characters and some wonderful landscape. The trees and the grass swaying in the wind is excellent. The noise of the creatures in the woods is excellent and as always, the story is very good.
Now, whats bad? About everything else. I have had video problems when the cut scenes come up. I can hear sound, but no picture. And the cut scenes are terrible. They look blocky and blurry. Just teribly done. And when you fighting, you can't even see your archers arrows half the time. Plus your guys are very weak. Your archers can only take 3 or 4 hits and they are dead. They say in some of the hints when you are playing the levels how to protect your archers, but your guys don't live long enough. And the online play was tough to get setup. I set my password and went to long in and it wouldn't let me. I had to change it 3 times before one worked. The controls have change also. For some reason they think it easier to click a button at the to put together groups of units and then to access them. Fortunately they have left the the option of holding the ALT button and then hit the number for your party. There is also a big difference bewtween the skill levels. Easy was way to easy (I didn't lose a unit on the first 6 missions) and the Mighty (which is the next level up) was a killer on a few missions). And the missions arent' very long either. As for the online play, there aren't many people on there yet. I have yet to see more than 32 players on at any one time.
All I have left to say is shame on you Microsoft for changing a good thing and not letting Bungie continue there excellence in the Myth series. You have really blown it here.
Overall, this game is Ok. I did enjoy playing it, but if you are expecting something better than MythII, forget it. If I were you, I would buy another Godgames game called Max Payne. You might enjoy it more.

Don't get this game!!!

Well guys, the Myth games series started 5-6 years ago, now it is getting repetitive and this last Myth 3 is the less cool of the whole series, because it's incomplete (sorta of half-release) and because it's just a bad clone of Myth 2.
Guys, Myth was very original 5 years ago, now we needed new good ideas and new cool units, that didn't happened.
I think bushido for Myth 2 is much better than Myth 3 <--- this is for people not new at Myth.
I hope that one day some ppl with fresh and good ideas and good knowledge of making games will release Myth 4 because Myth 3 is a enormous flop.
Well, don't buy it!

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?

Come in the great myth on-line community

Hey guys, i recommend you to get this game, because it's the best rpg ever seen and because, after myth1 and myth2, we are making all together a very nice on-line community. Come with us and enjoy, we want hundreds people playing myth3 on-line at every hour!

Certainly not up to Myth II standards . . .

I am extremely disappointed with Myth III. As another reviewer wrote, this is simply not a Bungie game and does not live up to the quality of Myth II. The production seems shoddy and incomplete. I had problems getting the sound to work on my system. Some levels take forever to load, etc.

The single player scenarios I've played so far are boring and the scenario descriptions seem lacking (i.e., it's often not clear what you're supposed to do on any given level). Seems like you have to do more running away from the enemy to get through the early levels than actual fighting -- I owe this to the fact the player units seem much weaker compared to the enemy than Myth II and overall the play isn't well balanced.

Haven't played the multiplayer mode. Maybe it's worth it for that, but as far as the single player game goes, I definitely don't recommend this. You're better off sticking with Myth II.
