Hype-o-Meter Update 01/17
 

And so I stand before the firing squad, having added Myst V to the H-o-M, and wondering which group I've ticked off more -- those who think I've listed it too low, and those who think that any ranking would be too high.

Nevertheless, it's Myst, and thousands of devoted fans are incredibly stoked, so it deserves to make the list. On the other hand, even fans are worried whether this is Myst V, Uru 2, or a mutant falling somewhere in the middle, and debates rage whether the lone screenshot available is, in fact, ugly or not. :eek:

And so Myst V slots in at a very respectable (read: total compromise on my part, but ssshhh) #6. Everything below it simply bumps down one notch, and we bid a fond farewell to Boyz Don't Cry, which enjoyed a short but glorious stay in the top 10.

Personally, I'm crying about that kool (Polish?) game's hasty departure, but the Hype-o-Meter is not the EasilyConfused-o-Meter for a reason. :) Hello, Myst V!!!! :D

That's where it belongs, IMO, until we learn more about it.
