   Hopefully it is better than the last. I’ve really liked the HOMM games for ages (I remember playing hot seat HOMM2 and 3 back in uni nigh on 15 years ago now.. sheesh), but the last one I thought was decidedly disappointing.

      VI was miles better than V though.

      Edit: After a quick trawl through review scores apparently III was the bottom of the series. Madness.

         None of those sites can ever be trusted again. 3 was the BEST in the series.

         Also, 6 was better than 5, but for me bugs really killed it. And way too many missions with timers on them. I hate that. HOMM is ALL about cultivating an impenetrable resource-collection safe zone, ensuring that every hero gets to do the stat-bonus circuit, and piling a steamroller army on a decked-out hero to take territory whenever you feel like you can do it without losing any of your max-rank troops.

            Yeah I played II, III and IV and loved all, but III most of all.

            Have you ever played Heroes Chronicles? It’s like a set of missions for Heroes III that have the best story of all of them. GOG.com has them all for cheap. Highly recommended.

            I personally loved 2 the best. I think the art style just grabbed me and still holds a special place in my heart, as it was the first Heroes game I really seriously got into. I loved 3 as well, but I wasn’t a fan of the art style. It was good, but not great. Gameplay in 3 was kickass though! 🙂

               Gotta admit I played the hell out of 2. Had the CD in my stereo for ages, just playing those tracks that came with.
