    No, not MM9 but the WHOLE series, in order too.

    Started from MM1 and struggled through that with no mapping in game. First time I have every finished it though (from memory).

    MM2 is such a huge improvement from the first and is still my favourite to this day. I'd say because it was the first one I ever played.

    MM3 is extremely fun, obviously graphics wise it is better than MM2 and it is one I could play over and over. I remember upgrading my C64 to an Amiga just for this game many a year ago.

    MM4/MM5/WoX Thankfully I played these as WoX as MM4 really is a poor mans MM5. After clearing Sandcaster you can pop over to Clouds and pretty much map the whole place. The Dragons been the exception. The wedding was emotional, especially when Prince Roland inserted his Rod (Xeen Scepter) into Queen Kalindras Box (Cube of Power). What were they thinking? :p

    SoX was good, I liked the scripting the makers added, was the first time I finished this too.

    MM6 is great, there is no doubting that. Well worth the wait when it first came out and in my opinion the second best of the lot. Such a big change.

    MM7 is good and pretty easy considering all the artifacts and relics you walk away with after killing the dragon on Emerald Isle.

    MM8 gets a bit much after the use of the same engine for three games in a row. The change of characters is the only thing that makes it playable.

    MM9 I just finished. Njam is imprisoned and everyone is happy. I quite like this game, obviously could of been so much better but I dont understand the bad rap it gets. I really dont think people have tried to play it and like it. Oh well, their loss.

    Well that is all, hopefully I can add a new Might and Magic to that list one day. Oh no, what am I going to play now?
