I agree, Ultima IV is a reasonably good port. It was written from scratch
for the Amiga and is HD installable, not copy protected, etc. Although
some people were disappointed, I was actually quite happy with it.

Ultima V is such **** however that I'll never buy another origin game.
What has happened to standards of quality in entertainment software ???
It used to be that companies like Origin were PROUD of the work they
did. (rightly so). Now they put out garbage and don't care. :-(
Frankly I hope they go out of business...
