I knew the SNES version was severely lacking, but damnnnn  the Mega CD version looks like crap.  Thanks for the screens.  :)

The MCD one is surprisingly nice, despite looking a bit underpowered.


I'd be curious to see the Amiga one next to those too.   I'm pretty sure it will look about the same as the DOS one.

I played most of the way through the Mac version BITD (installed from diskettes) and it's definitely superior to the Turbo and SNES versions.

The music on the Turbo version is weird and the scrolling lags a little bit, which is very unfortunate.

The SNES version supports the mouse, which is nice. I know MMII on the SNES had some censoring, so MMIII probably does as well.

Here we are, 7 years later, and I still hope that someone will send me Might & Magic III on PCE.

I played the PC version (disk) years ago.

I know someone who is probably going to list his U.S.-released Turbo Might & Magic III complete with map copy on eBay in the next day or 2, but he's probably going to be wanting $150-200 for it.  I'm not up on Turbo CD prices at all, so I don't have a clue if that's a decent deal or not at all, but if anyone's interested, then PM me, and I'll help you get in contact with him.  I don't know if he's willing to go down at all or not, though.

I've never had a problem with the game, though the game was released both on diskette and cd. I have only ever played the cd release, as I don't collect diskette versions of games.

For those that care:

I had no idea there was a Mega CD version. Genesis beta version as well, which is kind of strange that they would bother to do a cart version.

I'd probably go with the Duo version unless there is some major content from another platform that I'd be missing out on. From what I've heard of the music, it sounds pretty cool to me. And I'm not really into playing games on a computer. SNES would be my second choice.

I'm definitely interested, but not for $150 dollars. Maybe $60-100 and thats pushing it.

150.00 really isn't a bad price for MM III.

Be warned, it takes up the entire save space on your Duo.

Unless you are collecting, it's not worth getting the Turbob one

Just grab the DOS one. 

You'll thank yourself later when you enjoy the better interface

I love this approach to game data management: get another console .
