The reviews are in and, not surprisingly, Might and Magic: Clash of Heroes is getting some excellent scores:

<blockquote>

Ars Technica: <a href="/http://arstechnica.com/gaming/reviews/2 ... s">Verdict: Buy</a>

Game Informer: <a href="/http://www.gameinformer.com/games/might ... aspx">7.75 out of 10</a>

Destructoid: <a href="/http://www.destructoid.com/review-might ... 0.phtml">9 out of 10</a>

GameSpot: <a href="/http://www.gamespot.com/xbox360/rpg/mig ... ew.html">8 out of 10</a>

The links above are for the Xbox 360 version, but the articles and ratings for the Playstation version are pretty much the same. We'll have a review of our own (of the HD version specifically) in the coming weeks. <a href="/http://twitter.com/#!/might_and_magic">Follow me on Twitter</a> for more Clash of Heroes news.

Norwegian pressfire gave it 5/6 and called it "addictive".

I recommend this game mainly because I don't like puzzle games other than something like Zoo Keeper on the DS (or Bejeweled). Those games were easy to figure out, and so is this one. SO I didn't think I would like this game, but I do.

It might take you a few rounds of playing to figure out the mechanics, but you will figure out the depth more and more as you play and it gets easier to see what to do.

I bought it and personally like it a lot. Worth $15 for sure. Not to mention the art and HD quality is brilliantly presented. Win like Charlie Sheen with this one. ;)

If you're going to buy via Amazon, we'd love it if you'd go there via the CH Marketplace - so we'd get a small percentage as referral. :)

I noticed the Heroes VI: Collector's Edition was not on the CH Marketplace.

If we enter Amazon through the CH Marketplace, do you get a cut of whatever we buy or only on the items listed there?

Now praise it in a way that actually gives me some sort of objective information about it...

The game experience is a bit hard to describe in objective terms. Just like sex.

So they need to put it in a school manual in the most boring way possible?

I usually leave my PS3 at my parents house so I don't waste time on it while I'm at school during the week, and I had to go out and buy the DS version because I was fiending to play this game. The DS version is the exact same game, but with old-school sprites. I never thought I would be a Haven guy, but I'm really loving Haven in this one. I do sometimes catch myself calling the Swordmaster a Paladin though... he just seems a lot like the Paladin from HoMM 2 (or was it 1? not sure)

I hope they make an expansion to this game and add the Dark Elves and the Barbarians... that would make this game a true favorite.
