It's more thaen the fact that it wasn't Bungie. It didn't have that unique Bungie quality that I had grown to love with TFL and SB. I thought the plot was ill contrived and told in a ridiculously long winded way just to explain everything. The voice acting was not great, expecially the narrator. The music, though beautiful in places seemed a little too forced, e.g. wolves howling when Connacht is mentioned and not up to the standard of Marty O'Donnell and Total Audio. I did not like the literary style of the pre-game narrations and got bored quickly as they wore on.
One thing I did like was the excellent pregame artwork done by New Pencil which almost made it to the standard of McLees, Bernal and Ramirez. I never managed to finish the game mainly because I'm not so hot on gameplay but also because I got bored of the story-line. The improvements in graphics weren't all they were hyped to be and quite franky I preferred most of the TFL and SB sprites to the 3D models of Myth 3.
So there you have it. I do not often play online so Gamespy doesn't come into it and I'm not a mapmaker so Vengeance is not a problem. I hope you found that interesting

Good night.
