This RTS is one of those few games where you want to keep playing for hours without end.
LOTR:BFMEII Rise of the Witch King is THE expansion pack BFME needed to make the game better. The expansion pack adds a mixture of strategy and action which combine to make on excellent game. The story takes place as the... Read Full Review

So many things id like to say, to sum it up, graphics are good but the quality is crap! EA made another crap game!
The game itself is easy to play, graphics are good, but the one thing that gets me each time is the quality of the game. ever since the numerous issues i had with the sims i was always extremely cautious about buying ga... Read Full Review

EA took all the good things from the first, threw it into a bucket and burnt it with a flamethrower, ading realy bad AI.
After loving the first Battle for Middle Earth game, I find myself in total confusion as for why this game was so badly made. Out of the box this game looks awesome; new races, building and units. I fire up the game and... Read Full Review

One Step Forward, Two Step Backwards... As a fan of Battle for middle Earth, this sequel is somewhat underwhelming sadly
The First Battle for middle Earth, had me addicted for months. Large battles, great graphics, astounding audio, great campaign, and finally: Castles with walls. I was so hyped about the sequel, new races, new units, enla... Read Full Review

Did the Gamespot reviewer actually play this game??
This is a great game, and perhaps one of the most enjoyable RTS games I have every played. I just don't get Gamespot's mediocre rating of LOTR2 or the first LOTR for that matter. Just like the first LOTR, this game has... Read Full Review

Good expansion, This will do.
This expansion is really good. There are loads of new units to use and there are more new campaign's! Graphically there are no changes to the game that the player will notice and there are no new gameplay eliments. Th... Read Full Review

Much better than the first one.
I am not a fan of the LOTR movies, in fact, I can't stand them. I only bought this game in the first place because it was an RTS. The first game in the series was, in my opinion, terrible. So much lacking in that gam... Read Full Review

Lord of the RIngs tends to get better in the second round.
"The game EA should have released two years ago!" This game does a hell of a lot more in the second time around. Better graphics, gameplay, story, maps, online gaming, and soundtracks are just a few to mention. Th... Read Full Review

Real time strategy games CAN be played on a console... but their natural habitat is still a PC...
LOTR ME-II demonstrates an important point: RTS games can be played on a console. However, if having the option, I would suggest to go for the PC version any time. The reason is simple... its easier to use a mouse and... Read Full Review
