Along with HoMM 2, no other strategy game comes close. I must have put 10,000+ hours into these games (no, that's not a typo) and they never get old, no matter how many times I play them. Throw in a top-notch soundtrack, and you've got the all-time classic that is HoMM 3. As other reviewers have stated, this game was one of the main reasons I joined GOG.
