I'm thinking of getting a PS2 just to play KB on it.
Can anyone comment is it good?
I don't really care how it compares in graphic quality to very modern versions (ie. KBAP or HoMM). It certainly wouldn't stand up. But purely in terms of quality design and gameplay on it's own terms, for someone who likes the Genesis version, is the PS2 version any good, or was it just a sloppily done remake?
It's actually called "Heroes of Might and Magic: Quest for the Dragon Bone Staff" but according to Wiki & Moby it's really a remake of the original Kings Bounty with better graphics.
"Heroes of Might and Magic: Quest for the DragonBone Staff is really the old classic King's Bounty from New World Computing for the PC with revamped graphics. Very little else has changed, in fact even the text was the exact same with the original."
