We reported on October 19 that EBGames had dropped its price of $44.99 to $29.99 for Myth III. However, Zinfandel has noted in the futuremyth forum that EBGames has now re-priced Myth III once again, but now it is $44.99 again.
Myth Village has reported that GameSpy has put up an article entitled Inside The Myth III Soundtrack. Zak Belica, composer and sound designer for Myth III, is interviewed in the feature. Belica discusses his background in music and what he aimed for with the soundtrack:
The Mill has announced the five winners of the Myth 2: Worlds giveaway that ran until the 19th.
Kudos to Jimmy McSpoon for pointing out in the Myth Village forum another store that is offering Mac Myth III pre-orders. Mac-O-Rama has Myth III listed for $46 and an estimated time of arrival of November 2001. A hefty price, but if you are desparate, then perhaps this is a welcomed option.
The Marius.net website got the scoop on two new Myth TFL maps that have been made available at Grounds For Assault. Conner describes the new maps:
The Ring [of Seventeen] has a Stonehenge feel to, featuring some interesting unit mixes as well as great scenery. And Autumn's Tidings is reminiscient of Torpidinium with a quarry in the middle.
Sounds good, so get downloading.
As spotted by Subnova, the fantastic Creation map-making group is expecting to disband soon, as indicated by clem in a post in evihcra's forum. A distinct reason is not mentioned, but at least we will be able to enjoy one final release from the group with Sister's of the Blade.
Previously priced at $44.99, Myth III's pre-order price at EBGames.com has dropped to $29.99. That's an incredible price and I would pre-order it from them myself if it appeared as though they offered the Mac version, too. In any case, this seems to be the best deal for PC users.
