The first good console RTS
User Rating: 8.5 | The Lord of the Rings: The Battle for Middle-Earth II X360
Lord of the rings battle for middle earth 2 is the sequel to the award winning LOTR BFME. I cant say that the console one is worse then the PC version, the flaws in both level them out to a 8.5. Unlike the first version of the game you can build on any plot of open land not just on build points, also the main reson to purchase the game is the 3 new factions, the dwaves the seriously overpowed fraction, the elves and the goblins.
A major complant about the game is that mulitplayer is only 2 Vs. 2 unlike the computer versions 4 Vs. 4. But this is made up by lag free gameplay. Another dissapointing factor is the create a hero mode from the second, insted you get EA's pre made heroes. And It may seem like after that it deserves a 5, and with EA's servers that shut down occasionly.
But this a truly epic game and a must have for RTS fans
