This is by all means a great accomplishment of 3DO and New World Computing. They seem to improve with every new software title. Heroes 4 is at the top of the list. It has great music, improved graphics and new and innovative gameplay.
Although, there are some minor flaws that should be addressed.
Many players enjoyed the upgrading of creatures (i didn't mind the change though)
Some of the creature artwork, I think, should be changed. For example, the [villian] looks a little odd (not the [usual villan])
This game may require a high-end computer (i have a p4 1.5 ghz with 256 MB of RAM and i think i may need more RAM to run it faster)
Even with these minor flaws i would still recommend this game to the seasoned Heroes veteran or to the casual video game buyer.
Something to look forward to for x-mas season

Although screen shots are the only tangible evidence of this game's glory, they are very promising as is the quality of the preceeding HOMM series. Can't wait for it to come out!
Heroes 4 is Awsome

I just got it on Satuday. It's monday now and I've invested about 8 hours in it (it was Easter weekend and I had family over). I wasn't sure whether to trust the reviews I had seen since the game was just released on 3/29/02, and some were months old, but this installment is exactly what I wanted, greatly improved graphics and gameplay, but the basic game is still the same. It's the best strategy game I've played, with the possible exception of Starcraft (I've played Civ, Age of Empires, C&C, and many more).
If I were to complain at all about these games, it's about the pricing for the expansions. They sold the later H3 expansions with the complete game engine..., and hardly dropped the prices at all over time. All I wanted was the new levels and characters, and [the money] for that was a rip-off.
What no multiplayer!?!?

Ok I have been waiting for this game for a long time and I am at a loss as to why there is no multiplayer included with the game. Every other Heroes had why not this one? Everything about this game seems great except for that. What the [heck].
Heroes4 get better

I never played the first 3 Heroes games, so I can't really draw a comparison. But I really enjoyed Heroes IV and am looking forward to getting the expansion.
New graphics = More Gameplay

I played HOMM 2 and 3. This one looks like it builds upon those with the addition of new and snazzy graphics. Not that this is a bad thing. I will fully support a game that I have enjoyed previously if they have upgraded the graphics while keeping the gameplay the same. I would go and buy this game ...
Good game But....

Ok now i played this game in my 3rd hour class at school.. the game is pure prefection and I am most likely going to buy it.. but why not just wait 2 monthes for Warcraft 3 to come out?
But back to Hero 4 the graphics are great, and the hero is much more active the game play is smooth and it runs like a dream, the only confusing part might be how to buy buildings and a few other things, one of my friends was looking on behind me and reallt couldn't figure out what was going on..so my over all rating is a 5 but if you don't have the money for this game RIGHT now..Just wait until June/July and buy WARCRAFT 3 which is also a dream and will be god like
good game
