The gods are smiling upon "Age of Mythology." Solidifying its position as one of the top PC games, with its tale of might and magic involving legendary Greek, Egyptian and Norse gods, "Age of Mythology" has reached a milestone by selling more than 1 million games worldwide since its release. The title, developed by Ensemble Studios and published by Microsoft Game Studios, continues to garner critical acclaim and was nominated for the Academy of Interactive Arts & Sciences' (AIAS) Interactive Achievement Awards as PC Game of the Year and PC Strategy Game of the Year.

The Age of Mythology Website mentions that a new AoM v1.04 update patch is now available via the auto-update utility in Ensemble's real-time strategy game. The update fixes a network problem, addresses an exploit that worked around the firing delay on ranged units, and also fixes a scenario editor trigger corruption bug introduced in version 1.03. Word is: "Any scenarios saved using version 1.03 that contain 'Set Tech Status' triggers may have had some of their parameters cleared and will have to be manually repaired." (thanks Blues)
