The guy who plays Wormtongue is in a video game.... can you guess which one? at first I didn't recognize him but I sensed LOTR vibes. [Smile]

MYST III: Exile

Posted by unicornwhisperer (Member # 294) on :

Marlozahn came home with Myst 3 and was all excited because he had played the other 2. I had not, but thought it was cool for I rarely see video games with live action. Then we saw the villain. At first I thought it was Andy Serkis because I knew I saw him in LOTR... but then I thought of him with dark black hair.

I always thought thre actor who played Wormtongue came straight from off stage playing Shakespear, but then I saw him in a video game? [Eek!]

Myst 3 is a cool game but it needs more people and less machines that don't work...

Is Myst III any good?

Posted by Nick (Member # 4311) on :

I was wondering that myself. I have it on my Gamefly queue, maybe I should keep there. [Dont Know]

Actually, it was the other way around for me: I recognized the actor who played Wormtongue as the villain of Myst III. And yeah, he does look a lot like Andy Serkis (though not in their imdb photos).

Myst III is pretty good, though sometimes a little disappointingly linear.

I loved myst and riven... but myst 3... I didnt get very far. It took a while to get used to the panoramic view thing, and it made me dizzy sometimes. But, I know I'll go back to it someday and beat it.

If you love the Myst series, and don't mind something a little older, try Obsidian. It's an incredible game. Here are some screenshots

I never got very far in Myst 2. I just couldn't figure out what to do. I beat the first one, though.

Brad Dourif was Billy Bibbit in One Flew Over The Cuckoos Nest.
