Wallpapers Wednesday : Myth 2

Wallpapers for Myth 2, one of my favourite games for the real-time tactics genre from a pre-Halo, pre-Microsoft Bungie Studios.

The Myth universe, in my opinion, is one of the better fantasy-themed metauniverses ever created for videogames - where else do you get to fight against murderous skull-collecting monsters with dreadlocks like the Myrkridia (a fantasy version of a Predator?) and giant Trows who treat their unfortunate victims like footballs.

While the Myth series is no longer supported by Bungie, there’s still a thriving online community of enthusiasts at places like The Tain where you’ll find such goodies like an unofficial patch - version 1.6 (Windows, Mac) - for Myth 2 as well as The Fallen Lords campaign from the original Myth redone for Myth 2 for those who missed on the first game. Time to lead the forces of Light to battle against hordes of undead Thralls, Soulless and those vicious little Ghols (below) again :D

BTW, Myth 2 players might be interested to check out the demo for Kingdom ELemental. The tutorial for this game bears more than just a passing resemblance to that of Myth 2 :D

    It’s was orginally for PC and Mac. Bungie were Mac game devs originally if I’m not wrong.
