No lol. King's Bounty is new. Im thinking about an old turn based which copied HOMM but got great reviews. Came out ten years ago or so. Two games in total. I dont remember who the dev was either.

Forgot about this. Getaway 1+2 were great games.
Zelda (Alive)
Super Mario (Alive)
Halo (Alive)
Metroid (Alive)
Grand Theft Auto (Alive)
Pokémon (Alive)
Final Fantasy (Alive)
Double Dragon (Dead)
Gears of War (Alive)
Tony Hawk (Dying)
F-Zero (Alive)
Resident Evil (Alive)
Super Monkey Ball (Alive)
Ok I got it. The excellent HOMM clone I was thinking of was Age of Wonders (1999):
Apparently it's the same dev who now makes Overlord, so I guess the AoW series is dead.

Ah okay, but I thought you meant King's Bounty: The Legend, because - while it's a new game - it's not only very similar to HoMM, but also a sequel to a 20 year old game, New World Computing's/Jon Van Caneghem's King's Bounty, which is actually the predecessor to the HoMM series: http://www.mobygames.com/game/kings-bounty

No, see above. But have u played King's Bounty? I heard it's a bit awkward, that they even speak Russian in it? But it got good reviews and looks nice.

Huh? No, the screenshot above is from Age of Wonders, a great HOMM-clone. It got a sequel but is dead now. I liked it a lot, it was like a more atmospheric HOMM (if that is possible).
Or u mean they talk Russian in the new Disciples?
1. Metal Gear Solid - Alive
2. Grand Theft Auto - Alive

2010 Hardware Sales Predictions
Wii: 20m- Sales will drop, but not by much.
PS3: 13.5m- It sold 12m in 2009, its only common sense it will sell more this year.
Xbox 360: 11m- It sold 11m in 2008 and 2009, I think it will sell the same.
My Fanboy Speech...
Why do you have to make excuses to defend a product that you purchased, but that's the only connection you have to it, you don't make it, you don't lose or gain money on it. I don't see where all of the defensiveness comes in, there is no reason for you or anybody else to feel obligated to defend it. Now I would understand if one of you were a developer for the product and you slaved over said product only to hear somebody call it stupid or a piece of junk. But none of you developed it, none of you are mature enough to realize that. Choosing a product all comes down to preference, you chose said product because it is best for you. Simple as that!

Oh, I'm sorry for the confusion. I completely missed your post with the AoW screenshot. I guess I should read more than just the very last post of a thread once I posted in it.
