Nice! I haven't played this game in almost ten years, but I still have my original CD copy, and am surprised how well it works, even on a completely different OS and hardware architecture than the last system I played this on (an original Sawtooth G4 tower running Mac OS 9). The sprites look pretty dated, but otherwise this still looks (and sounds) great, and most importantly is still fun. Thanks to the developers who continue to maintain this project for their ongoing efforts to preserve this classic game.

The volunteer led group of Mythers called ProjectMagma once again show why Myth 2 is timeless. This new version includes a HUGE amount of gameplay enhancements and system performance upgrades. Keep the good times rolling. Make a free account on Marius.net and join us online in the fun!

I played this game consistently for 5 years from when it first came out. It is perfect, and the people who continue to maintain it are geniuses.

Apparently a bug has been uncovered which has caused the developers to temporarily withdraw the Soulblighter 1.7.1 release until it has been fixed: Please be patient!

Not sure what is being updated or why the version number is 1.6. The 1.6 has been out for some 5 months. The modification date has changed (and slight app name modification) but still the same version number. Loathing and Fear both remain at their respective version numbers, too. Still, I've had no issues w/ performance on the previous versions, even on an Intel Mac. Would expect this version to maintain if not improve upon that performance. >

i loved TFL moreso, but this game rocks almost as much for me. Thank you for the dev. Totally appreciated :-)

i love this game. thank you so much for keeping it alive.

I too am very grateful this game has continued to be developed. I hope companies continue to release their older games to the open source community. Myth II plus WW II plugins wasted many hours years ago and will start to do so again. :-)

I am so happy that this game has continued to be updated. Thank you developers! It is so much better than Myth 3.

had no troubles and works a treat. Gr8 update :)

Wow. What can I say. When I was ten years old, I was looking for demos online to find a good game. I had aboslutely no idea that I would happen to come across Myth. To make a long story short, I'm fifteen years old now, and I still play the old, master work of art. I bought a PS2, I bought a GBA, and I bought an Xbox. I'm a teenager and wow. I still play this six/seven year old game. What more can I say? O ya, I only have a Mac OS 9.2 but hey, the word of this game has to get out one way or another! BUY IT! I promise, you will not be disatisfied.

Superlative.

Works well for me. Very organised plugins and preferences dialogs.

This is one of the best computer games ever made and it's great to see the Mac OS X port and the continuing minor improvements. This is beginning to remind me of tabletop wargaming systems, that live on and are played for many, many years - sometimes even after the demise of the companies that published them. Myth 2 for Mac can be found in many bargain bins for $10 or less. It continues to be a bargain even at the $15 full-retail price at Amazon or other stores, especially since you will soon be able to get all the scearios from the original Myth game from Project Magma, too. Not to mention all the incredible fan-created solo scenarios and multiplayer maps. The free, fan-created total conversions such as World War II, Civil War, "Pirates" and Sci-Fi and even such things as lego soldiers and little green army men - the quality of these add-ons is a tribute to their designers and allows nearly infinite variety of play. The Myth series is not for the hack-and-slash crowd. Sure, you can bull your way through most scenarios and there is plenty of fun to be had watching things blow up and fly across the map in bloody bits. However, really fine mental exercise is in store if you take the time to learn to use formations, tactical synergy, maneuver, and terrain. Computer games are finally reaching a level of maturity in their execution that changing technology does not require that masterpieces like Myth need to be abandoned. I'm looking forward to seeing Myth continue to provide excellent competitive experiences and solo / cooperative challenges.

Doesn't work for me either. Version 1.3.2 did.

2 Gigs of RAM will not work with 1.4 (under OS X or 9) 1.5 Gigs of RAM works perfectly fine though.

carbon version doesn't work for me (neither did 1.32) keeps telling me I don't have enough memory (dual 1.25/2gigs mem/osx10.26) anyone else seen this?

I second that.

This is the best thing that's ever been created.

The demo alone is GREAT FUN over LAN (PC and MAC can battle eachother). Seeing this led me to dust off my old Myth 1 disc. After installing all the upgrades both Myth I and II demo run great in Classic mode! But dam those idiot duh-warfs, you've got to babysit them! fun fun fun

This game has just never gotten old. Playing single player storyline was challenging ,and fun. Then playing online provided years of fun with new maps, people, ranks, and oh yeah...Screw you Microsoft. Bungie forever

Stellar update!

Although the graphics look out-of-date now, the game is superb. Great storyline and atmosphere, and very challenging. Months of fun for me! Haven't tried this particular update, though.

I loved myth. but I was skeptical of myth 2. not any more. a great game. and hard as hell. beats command & conquer or starcraft any day. just think of it this way. you get to see dwarfs blowing people up. enoughf said

Myth II: / 'Mith/ n [Gk Mythos](1830) 1. SEE Myth I 2.Bad game that makes you bored 3. Do not buy
