    I love how he goes out of his way to not say Total war when talking about the campaign mode. Definitely screams LoTR Total war. Kind of sucks that WB took there license away, wouldn't mind seeing more like this, but I'm sure WB will make something horrible with the licenses the more people push for more. Hoping to see more Total war inspired games after this ones success.

    yeah sure it was better looking and better sounding and covered a larger part of middle-earth, but the single player (either side) was just plain lame, the whole thing felt like it was just made up as they went along.

    while on paper it was better and the graphics were very good etc. i didn't enjoy it as much as the last game. not only did they not have the epic story this time round, but the story was crap it it's own right.
