 Rating:  - Battle for Middle Earth IIGame was new, We just can't play it due to having the wrong components in our computer. Please don't hold "star" rating against seller. VERY prompt delivery. Game was what they said it was. We are happy with the Amazon store that sent it. Thanks BG Rating:  - Good Game, Bad Tech SupportOverall, this is a good game and a vast improvement over the first BFME. The inclusion of the dwarves and elves as races makes the skirmish mode more interesting. There were a couple of things that were disappointments. First of all, I have to say that the graphics, even when set on ultra high were very disappointing and EA made no effort to improve them since the last game. The graphics where blocky and the characters' faces were all blurred out. The largest problem ...

It's not a first-person game, but rather a build-and-battle game. The units are well-balanced, and the game solid, though I did bring the ring to my fortress once only to have it disappear and then reappear mysteriously. I don't think Gollum was involved. A mid-range graphics card is needed, and the interface is intuitive, and similar to Battle For Middle-earth ...

Again, there are two pre-scripted campaigns: good and evil. Those are o.k. but you don't have the option of picking your next battle by moving on a strategic map like in volume I. No real improvements in design or playability, just new races and units. I had expected more. Not recommended. Rating: - Fun gameI was pleasantly surprised with this game, I think I paid 10 bucks for it and I've gotten a ton of play time out of it, it's really been fun especially for the price. It's a bit more simplistic than some RTS games I've played but still fun and I always enjoy "The War of the Ring" game type. Campaign isn't super long but the replay value comes in playing the skirmishes and other game modes. I wouldn't pay $50 for this but for less than $15 you can't go wrong here and I 100% recommend this title. Music ... Read More |
