Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Battle for Middle Earth II
Game 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: 3 out of 5 stars - Good Game, Bad Tech Support
Overall, 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.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Good fun and a chance to be in Tolkein's world
This recreation of Tolkien's world succeeds, in my opinion, at least as far as reflecting various battle scenes is concerned. 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.

Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - The original was better in many ways
First off, the "strategic" level war of the ring is total crap. Very simplistic and not very playable. 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.
