Agreed...The Ultima series is one of the best set of adventure games around,
and you're right also about the apparent lack of quality in the ports to
the Amiga - though that is probably from the fact that some other company
does the Amiga ports for them...

Ultima V is still in litigation, due to the recent break between Origin and
their ex-distributor.  I don't know how Ultima V for the Amiga got into all
of that...anyone else know the answer?

Ultima VI will supposedly be out in October, so it looks as if some of us
may be playing VI before ever playing V...

Origin could stand to get their Amiga-act together.  I guess 1 million +
machines still isn't enough to convince them...
