Dreamfall and Myst IV previews

HomeLan Fed has posted a brief preview of Dreamfall, the sequel to Longest Journey, while GameSpy has posted their impressions of Myst IV: Revelations. Here's a clip from the Myst preview:

In 2003, the series went in a different direction with URU: Ages Beyond Myst, eschewing the pre-rendered backgrounds of its predecessors for a fully 3D environment and the promise of a persistent online world. Despite some decent reviews, many found the new control system awkward, and after a troublesome launch, the plug was pulled on the multiplayer (URU Live) after just a few months. So it should come as good news to fans that Ubisoft has chosen to return to the series' roots with the next game in the series, Myst IV: Revelation, including the same pre-rendered backgrounds and control scheme as previous games, as well as a storyline focusing on many of the original characters.
