I finally finished this game, which was sitting on various hard drives since I bought it. I must say that the good campaign and heroes are a lot better than the evil campaign which feels a bit like a tag on. The good heroes are a lot better and Gandalf simply feels over the top powerful, followed by Aragorn and his Oathbreakers uberpower.
Anyway, it's long overdue, and I know that The Battle For Middle-Earth 2 is out and history already, but wanted to write this little review anyway. A simple advise is that if you love the movies and the book and are a collector, buy it. It's got the original cast voices from the Peter Jackson movie and some of the footage tucked in there. Great production values overall.
