I'm glad I avoided buying that one. Though I think there's a fan patch out for it now that gets it to run reasonably well.But I loved all the other MM games, back in the day. I replayed 6-8 a few years ago; they're still good games, but they have not aged well graphically. I think MM7 was the best of that trilogy; it had the best class balance, the most interesting locations, and I liked that the storyline tied in with Heroes of Might and Magic 3 (which was the best of the HOMM games in my opinion).But my favorite Might & Magic games were 4 and 5. Old-school turn-based CRPGs for the win. And the Xeen games were some of the best in that genre. I must have played through those games four or five times. Highly enjoyable.</blockquote>
