Basically a sound game. Expands the franchise well. Its not super exciting If you don't like DOW 2 already, but its a good way to get into the game. Multiplayer lots of challenge if you are competitive type. and TLS is great for playing with real world or online friends. Superb value for money. The campaign can get repetitive so its probably the weakest part of the game, but even this has its saving grace in allowing six different factions, it's viable to simply play it through with the faction you like best. Because you can dial up the difficulty and because there are many ways to assemble a force (or build one in game) the campaign could have a lot of replayability for the fanatical types. I found the game gets incredibly slow if you build up a large force in game, so there are some hardware issues. Also there can be slow loading and waiting or game matching in TLS, but this seems to have been smoothed by a recent patch. RELIC are absolutey great at patching and upgrading their games. They provide the best online support for non MMO titles of any company I have seen. This is another reason to buy it. Last I looked I suddenly had a whole new set of wargear available. Thanks Relic. Another factor to consider is the quality of online players. It's a very international, and pretty well behaved bunch of dudes. Some of the top players for TLS for example (I know them) are actually Russian ('Crab 127'), French ('Dante...') and German ('Simon 07'). They are keen to find other friends for team building (if you can make the grade) so its possible to get into high score chaces once you have proven your self
