Lame, lame, lame!
I was excited to play this game, having been a huge fan of DoW1. I knew that it was going to be a more tactical game, but did not realize that "tactical" equated to "lacking in content." I played through the single c... Read Full Review

GREAT single player, fast paced, a bit repetative - but still enjoying. In game characters are fun. But MP
I bought this game, just for the reason I playede SOME with my friends at Dawn of war (1), but I was never a real fan of it. I started playing the single player scenario on this, and i found this game very fun, apart tha... Read Full Review

Not the sequel most people were expecting, but still a solid entry in Relic's catalog of excellent games.
Being a huge fan of the original Dawn of War, I had extremely high expectations for Dawn of War II when I first saw the trailers. Then they revealed over time that the game would have almost no base building, and focus ... Read Full Review

Nothing like Dawn of War 1, yet, it has a nice story line for the campaign.
I was disappointed when I began to play this game as it is nothing like Dawn of War 1. There are no player controllable structures in the campaign which means only a limited number of units and no research/upgrades. Howe... Read Full Review

Big change... Great campaign and amazing Game-play (minus the activation)
First of all, ¿What's wrong with giving an RPG touch to the singleplayer campaign?... NOTHING! It's a fantastic experience and recommended for most people, plus you get the Skirmish and Multiplayer modes... said that...... Read Full Review

Great story, great game play, great graphics, just plain great!
I was a little concerned about not finding another RTS as good as Company of Heroes. This game won me over. I was a little hesitant about the idea of mixing RPG elements in a RTS but after a couple of missions, I was... Read Full Review

It's difficult to decide if I liked this game or not. It's a new concept to me.
Dawn of War 2 clearly goes on from the previous game, with no real introductions to the characters. Even so, it does not really matter. You get thrown into the action straight off the bat, with a gun blazing war between ... Read Full Review

If you had any worries about the drastic change in gameplay from the original then worry no more!
Warhammer 40000: Dawn of War II, how we waited for thee! With Soulstorm being far from impressive, i was really hoping Dawn of War II would be revitalising the series. I must admit i did get a tad worried when Relic anno... Read Full Review

DOW 2 continues the Warhammer series: immersive, challenging, and just plain fun! A great addition for my game library!
Dawn of War II is more enjoyable than I initially thought it would be. The graphics are top notch and the plot/story are just great. I did not have the high speed ISP (DSL/Broadband) required at the time I purchased this... Read Full Review
