"The graphics look incredible and the key bindings work a lot like some games in the same style of genre, Diablo 2, Torchlight, etc. It's a pretty intuitive game and very easy to get into and start exploring. The maps are incredibly detailed and more open than you'd normally get in this style of game." - Donovan, Curse.com
Check out the entire hands-on preview here at Curse.com!
Its definately worth a read.
It also leaks to us that the beta is going live NEXT week!! I'm seriously looking forward to some hardcore action with my Warcaster..

Berek-PG has welcomed the new Site and Forums with the following words

It is my pleasure to present to you this new site and forums! What a ride in development it has been, but here we are. Everything should be in place, though we will of course be tweaking and enhancing areas as the need comes up. Hopefully you will help us spot those areas that need additional attention.
Since you've had a few days to look over the site proper, I'm sure you have some immediate comments on those pages, especially when it comes to browser compatibility issues. The forums have had quite a bit changed. While content remains the same, here are some of the things we've adjusted in order to give you more tools for discussions:
*Upgraded the forums from IPB 2.x to IPB 3.x and added a new skin
*Adjusted some of the categories and forum locations
*Re-organized the Usergroups. We have cleared the "Community Leader" group.
*Implemented the new rules & guidelines
That's about it! Lots of changes in a few key areas. I hope you like what we've developed here. Even if you have some reservations about it, or hate it (hopefully not!), we're all ears on your suggestions for improving the site and forums. Again, browser compatibilities and other small issues are bound to come up, so we appreciate everyone's patience while these are revealed and we clean them up.
We'll be sending out an official announcement and contests as soon as you've settled in. So, have at it... it's all open!
So go and get involved with the New-Look PG community or stay around here at GameSector for some Mytheon Discussion!
Mat has also given the web a look at the Petroglyph Xmas Card
So Merry Christmas & a Happy Holiday Season from PG and all of us here at Mytheon Sector!
Petroglyph's long time hinted new site has now been completed!
It should be going live in the next few days before a Press Release next week.
QUOTE
To all in the Petroglyph Community, an important announcement must be made!
This may come as a pleasant surprise to some, but we are actually moving forward with our new site! The first phase is a "soft launch", where we release the main site with the forums following a couple of days later, without a major announcement. This phase will take place in the next day or so!
EDIT- Dec 10th, 22:45 GMT : The Website Changeover is now being done by Petroglyph!
This means that their forums will be offline for a few days. But No Fear! MytheonSector and the rest of the GameSector Network is here to handle any and all gaming needs while they complete this much needed transition.
The first True Games Interactive podcast has been released! It contains news on the upcoming Warrior Epic's expansion, Mytheon's status, and some fun insights to the inner works of TGI.
The first look at the domains of Mytheon! Currently there are three; the tranquil Shattered Isle of Poseidon, the darkly majestic Domain of Hades, and the ruined lands of Colchis. Got some interesting screenshots there; I'm lovin' the Domain of Hades
True Games and Petroglyph have released their first podcast recently! Randy King (Producer) and Chris Rubyor (lead designer) talk about the importance of power stones as they share their views about Mytheon. Have any questions needing answering? Have a peek at the 12 minute podcast below at curse.com!
The Mytheon team have announced that the first 1,000 people to register an account on the new website will be guaranteed beta access, however this is not available to users in Europe at this time.
Irvine, Calif.-October 14, 2009 - Global online game publisher, True Games Interactive (www.Truegames.com), with its partner Petroglyph, announced today the release of five new screen shots for its highly-anticipated, online multiplayer action-role-playing game, Mytheon(tm) (www.MytheonGame.com).
The new screen shots depict some of the larger-than-life characters and mythological creatures in the game. Included is one of Hephaestus' minions, the Behemoth, who is ready and willing to take down any mortal who dares to invade the War Forge. Fools wandering the Stygian Abyss looking for the entrance to Hades will run into vile creatures that stand in their way such as the Gorgon. Also highlighted are some of the incredible environments to be found in the game, such as the Boat Launch to Colchis where those looking for trouble will surely find it when they arrive.
Developed by Petroglyph, Mytheon offers a unique online game play experience that combines the best elements of the Action-RPG genre with strategic combat and collectability. Players will challenge legendary mythological gods by wielding potent and unique "Power Stones" that transform into spells, structures and creatures. Players can loot, forge, buy, sell and trade these stones among a thriving online community, then cast the stones during epic battles that play out in a visually stunning 3D mythological world.
Check them out below,
They have also been added to the screenshots page.
Many a day has gone by since the original launch of Mytheon Sector earlier this year. However, the site has not been particularly active. As part of the Game Sector Network's rejuvenation - we've redesigned Mytheon Sector. The site still has a few things to sort out yet (such as the pages!) but we'll be all go again very shortly.
In the meanwhile, check out the forums - they're looking pretty snazzy these days
