I just read a review from someone who got this DVD-rom set for free since he bought Uru: Ages Beyond Myst. He said he was glad he did not pay for them and warned others not to buy the set unless you have Windows XP. He said he tried it on all the other operating systems to find that they did not work. His intention to save some people cash was very excellent, but, a loss of profits could hurt our beloved company behind Myst as much as pirates could by stealing the software. Maybe the DVD versions he has now really do work, and he just does not have a DVD-rom.

Will not run on my computer; have a new top of the line Dell XPS chassis, and everything else works fine. Myst locks up computer every time I try to run it, have to Ctl-Alt-Del to force the machine to shut down in order to unlock it, always in the middle of a game. Very frustrating!! Threw the CD away.

I could not have been more thrilled when a DVD version of my three favorite sports meeting of all time came out in 2003. Both “Riven” and “Myst III: Exile” were a whopping five disks a piece for play on a personal computer; with the new DVD format, they’ve been reduced to a release disk.
Much more manageable, methinks.
And then I was even more thrilled when I received this gift set, by the side of with “Uru: Ages Beyond Myst,” for Christmas. Santa Claus had indeed checked my name twice under the “nice” heading.
So presume my disappointment when I learn that this gift set only runs on Windows 98 and Windows XP. What a joke. Why does Windows 2000 constantly get the shaft when it comes to computer sports meeting? Not anything works on that system; none of my Windows 98 sports meeting install, and Windows XP software is constantly hit-or-miss.
Thinking I could make it work anyway, I installed the “Riven” DVD onto my system. Surprisingly, it worked and everything seemed to be in order! But then it wouldn’t boot. The start-up screen would appear, and that was it.
When are computer game-makers going to realize that millions of people have Windows 2000 and that we’d like to play our favorite sports meeting on it? I like “Myst” and “Riven” and “Myst III: Exile.” They are the only sports meeting I have ever really played again and again. I can’t say much about “Uru: Ages Beyond Myst” because, even though it is designed for Windows 2000, it still doesn’t boot. So now I have two Christmas gifts that are worthless unless I get a whole new system with Windows XP.
Please, please, PLEASE, people! How hard can it be to make a game that runs on all systems? This would include Windows 95, 98, 2000, NT, XP, and no matter what else I’m forgetting. It is highly irritating when something will work on Windows 98 and Windows XP, but will NOT work on Windows 2000. What, was Windows 2000 just an afterthought in the gaming industry? It’s kind of like the middle outcome – always neglected.
In small, I give this set three stars because I like the sports meeting so much. And that is the ONLY reason it gets three stars. The fact that it doesn’t work on Windows 2000 is pathetic. With as many versions of these sports meeting that have been produced over the years, you’d reflect the makers of them would finally have gotten it right with an ultra-cool DVD release.
Guess I thought incorrect.

Well, since myst is only available in bundels with other sports meeting and with a whole lot of modifiactions, i want you to pretend that this the product I’m reveiwing is Myst. Well, now to talk about Myst. This game is hard, man! I’ve nearly beatten Uru: Ages Beyond Myst which is the new one and I haven’t accomplished a thing exept find some wierd thing that leads me nowhere and get the tower alighnment right. Thats after 10 hours of exploration. I don’t know how you can beat the game without a hint guide.
