You know guys.. if you look at Myth and Myth II as the first real game of it's kind, you can see exacly how MUCH life this has in it. Look at how many First Person Shooters have immerged, or Resource Mgt games. If the rumors I hear are true, and my sources are pretty good, the engine upgrades alone will add five years of 'fresh' to the title's expiration date. I think we're in for a long ride.

Lucas changed the Star Wars saga at one time during every movie from the original script that he had prepared. Does that invalidate them? Truth be told he only wrote outlnes for Empire and Jedi, and had other writers do the majority of the work. Classic phrases like Han Solo's response to Leah's "I love you" were created by the actors on set. Harrison Ford got in hot water for saying "I know" and Lucas wanted it cut from final. I also feel that this one line adds much to the cocky personality of Han. So, should we not consider this to be 'legal' part of his character?
Should every Star Trek episode not written by Rodenberry be striken from the record?
Nah.. I think we see where it goes. I dig the Myth backstory, even in places where it gets a bit confusing and your mind gives up. What is Escapism without a world to Escape to? I say we let ourselves be spun into another dreamworld and enjoy every step of the ride.
