I just got my copy of Myst: Revelation today and was wondering if anyone else has the game. I'd love to discuss it with other Myst gurus.

Technically? Number 4 in the series. Actually the box says Myst IV: Revelation, but there was apparently a tangent series called Uru for a while that was on-line based and got closed for some reason, may have been unpopular, as the majority of myst loyalists thought the new design stole a large chunk of what made Myst... Myst. I played "Exile" (#3) and then fell out of the loop until two months ago when I decided to search for intel on the fourth chapter, and was DELIGHTED to learn it was months away from completion. Now, here I am. The clarity of the 3d space is breathtaking, and Yeesha is just as great as Atrus, Catherine, Sirrus and Achenar.

There is a Myst: Revelation Demo you can download from the Mystworld site.

Yes, it's especially good for demoing the game against the compatibilities of your machine. My graphics card is outdated but I'm still able to play while my computer "limps" with some of the graphics. Sirrus' prison world is very unusual. It's a great rock finger out of fog, and the fog is beautiful, but it's taken "square chunks" out of the rock in a lot of places and replaced it with the fog because of the outdated card. A lot of the beautiful lights should have a circular sunbeam when you stare right into them, and many do, but others have, again, square blocks.

I can't believe I haven't heard anything about Myst IV being released. I love the Myst series a lot. I've played the first three and I've read the books of Atrus, Ti'ana, and D'ni. I never played Uru though. I liked the idea, but I just never got into it enough to buy the game. What's the basic premise of Revelation?
EDIT: You know you've got SG-1 on the brain when you automatically add an "s" without thinking to the end of Revelation.MCKAY: We need the Zed PM to power the Gate.
O'NEILL: What?
JACKSON: ZPM. He's Canadian.
O'NEILL: I'm sorry.

I am!!!!! I'm playing!!!!
I've done all the other mysts except Riven which bored me after a while, and I couldn't get back into it because of the lack of 360 vision I got used to after playing Exile for a while. I did like them though, Exile was amazing with the 360 view and level of interactivity. This game pushes it to the limits.
The graphics are seamless and the intertwining of live action and CG environments is absolutely incredible. I'm quite far in (I think!) now and am really loving it. There is loads of depth to the game its amazing. Yeesha is too cool oh and the photograph idea in the game is sooo useful, I take photos of loads of stuff now and some of the photos come in really handy.
The music is great, I want to go and play it again now!
