Heroes of Might and Magic V Reviews

A trio of new reviews for Ubisoft and Nival Interactive's Heroes of Might and Magic V start off the new week. The first is at Game Over Online with an overall score of 80%:
Overall, if you liked the earlier Heroes games, then you're bound to like Heroes of Might and Magic V as well. Sometimes I say that in my conclusions anyway, but in this case it's because Heroes V is almost an identical game. There isn't anything new here, but the format works as well as ever, and the 30 campaign missions are good for over 60 hours of playing time. If you haven't played any of the first four Heroes games, you might want to start with them first, since they should be cheaper and more likely to work on your computer, but otherwise Heroes V is a solid buy at its $40 SRP.

The second is at Fragland with an overall score of 90.8%:
In short: a great game which will keep you busy till late at night. Too bad about the errors that are still in the game, but I certainly want to forget about that. An absolute must!

And the third is at SciFi.com with an overall score of "C+":
Lots of potential here if Nival can clean up the bugs, release more skirmish maps and get us both a decent map editor and, ideally, a random map generator.
