It sure went faster when Starforce was gone.
Let them think they are winning, when they find out they are losing, its too late.

I hope not. This game is "a must buy" for supportive purposes at least, not to mention that it´s great & definately worth of full price (I´ve actually pre-ordered the game already). Actually I´m even happy to pay for the game, which is rare for me in all cathegories of payments (my ancestors must have been Scottish or something)! :D

AWESOME!!!!! When 3DO went bankrupt, I thought H4 was the last game in the series. I am truly glad that Ubi is breathing life back into the series. I do want M&M X though. :)



And H5 will RTM (Released to Market) 2 weeks early. You gotta appreciate a company that RTMs earlier than expected.

What?! Released 2 weeks early? Last I checked they only said May, not a certain date, so how can it be early?

The Ubi store said something like the 19:th. If that has changed, it's news to me.

Gold means sales of 500k units. Platinum means 1M.

That may be the terminology for sales, but in this case, going gold means that the publisher/developer has finished the game and has made the master copy into a gold disk, which will be sent off to be duplicated. :)

I'm sorry but that's the terminology for selling music albums. Unless they're Christian music albums, then they have a whole other terminology. :devious:

Seems a bit early to me. While opening the champagne please keep your fingers crossed for the sake of us all.

Yeah you are right, we better dont get too OVERexcited or the fall will be twice as deep if the game sucks (which I highly doubt) :)

This **** is awesome... Absolutely loved the demo, but hated the Beta!!! Looking so much forward to buying this game!!! Fabrice, Nival and Ubi seriously deserves us gamers appreciating their acknowledgement of our community, by buying the game. Have played every Heroes game to date and own them all except H4, but this one is by far the best and with the most potential... :My Champagne botlle is already opened :o):



Thanks!
