Summary: Review for Might and Magic VI - The Mandate of Heaven
Review: MMVI is one of the best RPGs available. I like it better than the flashy new ones, because it runs smoothly, the text-size is not displayed in tiny microfont, the game is long, and for many other reasons. It is not over-complicated, and it is generally very fun to play. The story is intriguing and complex, and will keep you interested. The dungeons and caves are surprisingly large and not easy to negotiate. The countless enemies are very challenging to beat, and the Overworld is gigantic.

Summary: A terrific bargain
Review: These are four of my favorite games, which I sadly purchased at full price as each one was released. Part of the attraction of these games is the simplicity of the interface. In all four games, you control a group of characters with a single first-person view. It sounds too simple, but it really works. I have played all four games twice.The first two games, Might and Magic IV and V, can be combined into one huge game, The World of Xeen. Not only was Might and Magic VI just as large as the World of Xeen, but it introduced their new game engine with greatly improved graphics. MM4 and MM5 were turn-based only, while MM6 and MM7 are realtime with the option to switch to turn-based at any time. These games are highly addictive. You will always want to play just a little bit longer. With all four games priced below the cost of even one of them when they were new, this is a terrific bargain.

Summary: A warning, just in case you are not sure...
Review: These games do NOT work with Windows XP. Most people reading this are probably aware of that, but in case you thought about purchasing it and hoping you'd luck out (like my wife) it doesn't.

Summary: A great deal for RPG addicts
Review: This box set contains FOUR games: Might and Magic 4, 5, 6, and 7. It also includes the bonus adventures World of Xeen and Swords of Xeen. Might and Magic is a classic first-person fantasy RPG where you create a party of adventurers and set out on an epic quest to save the world, adventuring into dungeons, wizards' towers, towns, castles, alternate dimensions, and even outer space. Might and Magic 4 and 5 are my all-time favorite RPG's. The game hooks you from the beginning. You always have something to do (no directionless wandering) yet you never get stuck (no fiddling around for days trying to figure out one stupid puzzle). You are always moving forward and never get bored. By modern standards, the graphics and sound of this game are archaic. But just last year I reinstalled them and got hooked all over again. Regardless of graphics, these games are addictive and fun. Simply the best! Now enter Might and Magic 6 and 7. Many improvements were made to the original game engine between MM5 and MM6. MM6 was a little rough and unpolished, but by MM7 they had the new system down. Both of these games also provide countless hours of entertainment and make MM4 and MM5 seem like tiny walks in the park by comparison. I can't even count the sheer number of hours of classic, enjoyable RPG gameplay you will find in this simple box (not to mention cool full-color maps). I also highly recommend MM8 for more of the same!

Summary: More of the same.
Review: This edition is exactly what it says it is. It is the old games packaged into one. If you liked the older verions of might and magic, then you will probably like this one. Its a good deal since you get two games in one. The game play is decent, you don't expect much from role playing games to begin with. Overall, its a pretty decent buy. It will keep you entertained for a month or two.

Summary: RIP OFF
Review: This thing could hardly be more of a rip off. Their claims of over "500 pages of hints, tips and walkthroughs!" really amounts to manuals being on the cd so that the game can crash on you when you alt-tab out to look at them. Further these are not the Prima Official Strategy guides, they are in fact the "Fast Track" guides which means that huge sections of these books are simply not there. Instead you are afflicted with more advertising to buy the books which are supposed to be with the game when you buy it. (Gee how magnanimous!) Some of which are no longer even in print! This is the exact type of marketing that is making it very difficult for folks who are not essentially lying bald faced on the box for their games. My next stop is the web master.
