Lovely game, great sequel. Graphics, Sounds, Music create a great atmosphere, AI could do with a bit of improvement
"A second BFME? Was it really necessary considering the story is concluded and there is not much more going on in Middle Earth?" Those were my first thoughts about this game, but thankfully I was wrong. Battle for Mid... Read Full Review

No doubting this is the best the LotR franchised game to date.
Having found any excuse to play this game, out of the short time this game has been out, I've already managed to rack up a staggering 19 hours of gameplay in just 3 short days. Now, I don't know what it is, whether its t... Read Full Review

LOTR:BFME 2 is an improvement of the original game but there are a few details that could be improved
I installed the game with the tought that LOTR:BFME 2 would be much better than the original game. But when I played the game I found that it looks and feels too much like the original game. The best innovative thing in ... Read Full Review

Takes BfME 1 and multiplies it by 50.

This is what the first game should have been. The AI is improved and WoTR will have you fighting for ME for a long time.
I liked the first BFME but it was missing the epic feel of actually trying to save or conqeur it. Along with its RTS lite gameplay I quickly grew tired of it. It was a good game, but not as good as this sequel. WoTR mode... Read Full Review

The Best sequal ever
The game beats the 1st one in every way. The game play in war of the ring is good. One of the best bits in the game is that you can build anywhere and you can create your own hero.My Favourite race on of the new ones is ... Read Full Review

Solid Singleplay, weak on some points. Overemphasis on multiplayer!
The good: Graphics, naval battles, awesome LotR soundtrack, decent balance. Bad: Not enough naval maps, water not big enough, problematic AI The graphics are evolutionary off the first game, smoothed out with a he... Read Full Review
