As well as revisiting Wii Fit after a few days absence - hopefully not a sign of things to come - this weekend saw me trying some Mythos, the new free to play - hurrah! -World of Warcraft meets Diablo MMO. This is an old school looting/hacking/levelling adventure that Diablo fans in particular will love. RSI sufferers who hate clicking the mouse every few seconds will be less happy. Despite this I enjoyed the few hours I spent playing, mainly because Mythos is already nicely polished despite being in beta. It does lack that sense of place - the isometric visuals are pretty enough mind - and that coherent world feel that something like WoW nails so perfectly. But shake those WoW comparisons - admittedly difficult at times given the look and feel - and you've got a game full of addictive leveling/character advancement stuff that could easily suck you in for hours. In all honesty though I'll probably wait until the full release later this year. Partly because I'm still ploughing through Lost Odyssey on the 360. But most importantly there is the little issue of GTA IV. Less than 24 hours to go till GTA then - how did you fill your last Niko-free weekend of gaming?
