Not sure if you've seen these rare Might and Magic trailers.

The role-playing games (I-X) that started it all and the various spin-offs (including Dark Messiah).

Thought I'd share ^_^

Some of which are quite old.

Might and Magic 3: Isles of Terra

Might and Magic 4: Clouds of Xeen

Might and Magic 5: Darkside of Xeen

Might and Magic: World of Xeen

Might and Magic 8: Day of the Destroyer (Yes I know it was already on youtube, but it took me forever to find another copy somewhere)

Might and Magic 8: Day of the Destroyer for Playstation 2 Trailer (For the unreleased Japanese only game)




I also have the Might and Magic 6: Mandate of Heaven trailer, but it's so common it's a joke.

Might and Magic Mobile, action RPG for phones.
Might and Magic II Mobile, more of the same.

Cool finds.

The Clouds of Xeen one is so incredibly lame that it's hilarious @ 0:51 - 1:36 :D
You'd think Darkmoor was a ghost town, but instead there's plenty of life among the dead.

Are these really official trailers? The supposed MM8 Playstation trailer looks very much taken from MM7 intro.

Portraits themselves are easy to replace, it's the doll in the inventory screen that is difficult.

The MM8 PS2 trailer was shown on Japanese TV.

Here's the IGN page on the game:
http://ps2.ign.com/objects/721/721572.html

The MM3, 4, 5 and WOX trailers are recorded in Dosbox. Back in the day video compression was terrible and consumed way too much CPU power so trailers came in the form of non-playable preview demos (which had the advantage of being lossless).

I'm sow yours mm3-5 videos - There were ones at my surprising - In the Beginning and in a front of Games endings all the videors are... But there's no any video to train you, where are not anybody's seeing itself? Play yourself M@M and no try to seek to anothers playings! (MM8-9 is not interesting for me - I think that this seria was died after MM7...) I fear those my liked games are forewer deads, but Great Mods (From the oldest "Swords of Xeen" to new BDJ's Mods,,,) Sorry of English, such always. Only by nostalgy...

I don't completely understand what you meant, but reading the manual is a good start.

Well, MM3, MM4, MM5, WOX, Inherit the Earth (for some reason on the disc of the full game) , Joe and Mac, Empire Deluxe, a couple of windows 3.1 card games. That's what I have.

And on my WOX CDs I have all the same demos except for WOX.

saw that M&m6 trailer on the Heroes disc now.

and i actually remember seeing that one long before, and getting surprised that a new Might and Magic was on the way, since i thought it ended at M&M5.

good times.
