Mithra: Xbox Community Games’ first AAA Title?

What you’re seeing above is not an upcoming Xbox Live Arcade release, this is the Xbox 360 Community Game Mithra: The Calling (Episode 1, Chapter 1 even). Beyond being the single most visually impressive Community Game so far it’s got an old school adventure vibe with a practical-yet-puzzling puzzle right in the Trial Game. Unfortunately, it ends immediately after you solve it so there’s no telling how much you get for your 400 Microsoft Points or how long this first installment (of 5) lasts. It’s creepy how I was just thinking about loading up Nightshade on the NES for some point-and-click adventuring when Mithra pops up online. I’m buying it, soon.
