perhaps you have found the updates for Mac
if you have Heroes 3 Complete or Platinum you don't need patches

14 years later
The Nostalgia, it's unreal. ..
It's been 14 years after this was posted! WOW
I mean some people have been born and are now teenagers, some have become adults, graduated college, etc..
Army Men 2 was undoubtedly one of my childhood favorites and i'm sure the same was true for many others.
I still play this game occasionally and I even wrote a mod for multiplayer (lan) that would let you place objects such as outposts, tanks, mines etc further than what was allowed.
The mod would also give you infinite setup points. I think 5000 was the max, so you could engage in rather large battles.
It's a shame what happened to 3DO, they made such great games and I will forever be grateful to this American based company for giving me such an enjoyable and memorable childhood

Check it up and was totally mind blown. Last news update still shows 'Modified on September 18 1996. That was 22 years ago, man!
I am about to be 50 years of age next month and, that makes that web page being stuck in time as far back as I was a mere 28 years old lad.
Brings a lot of Arcade games rooms memories. X-men vs Street-Fighter was totally new by just 5 months. Geez...Marvel vs Capcom 1 was not even in development at that time and date.
This is like taking the Delorean from Back to the Future and travel to another time and another totally different world altogether. Hey! Heck! might as well mention it while I am at it: Magnetic recording tape was still in wide use and, 5.25" floppies + 3.5" floppy disks were still in huge PC trend at that time. Plus, Windows 95(very first Windows O.S. ever) was still being patched and reworked up in order to make it work properly on the PCs of that time.
So...How's that for a flashback to another world that you kids will never possibly experience?

Thanks for sharing your story and memories! , time indeed passes us by pretty quickly! Pretty scary if you ask me...
The good old day's... Don't we all miss them.
If you're reading this from 2100-2200 please have a look at some of our older games from the early 2000's...

Wow, another argentinian :V
That intro was cool. Shows how people took worldbuilding seriously back then.
The intro to H5 and H6 seemed very generic in comparison
"Demons attack royal wedding, kidnap princess"
nah.
