Well worth it.

User Rating: 9 | The Lord of the Rings: The Battle for Middle-Earth PC
If you played and liked any of the Age of mythology series and if you liked the LOTR films - this is the game for you. EA perfectly controls the proportions of "all out fighting", "magical powers" and "heroes and battles from the films". Unlike it's sequel this game focus' more on the films and the book than anything outside of that. With all the heroes of the film playable characters with their own powers and abilitys which can be upgraded.You can also upgrade and level up heroes and soliders by using them well in battle and killing lots of people. Also by killing lots of people and destroying buildings you earn more battle points and battle points earn you powers! Which differ depending on what race you are playing as.
