Great game...one unfixed bug October 19, 2007
This is a fun game but there is one problem that I still have not been able to solve. It played fine on Windows XP. I upgraded to Windows Vista and the game started to crashed sporadically. Some times I played for hours and at other times, for minutes. My computer specs more than meet the recommended hardware. For instance I have a Pentium D with a 3.2GHz chip, 3GB of RAM, nVidia GeForce 7900 GTX. All my drivers are updated. I have also re-installed the game, just in case. The only other advice EA gives is to run it in XP compatibility mode. I tried that and get an error message asking me to insert the correct disc. This, after I started the game by clicking on the game disk. I do not know if anyone else has had this situation but I still have no answer to my predicament. For the record, I am able to play all other games I have...from the very first C&C and Age of Empires to more recent ones like Supmreme Commander and Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter.
That being said, the game itself is very enjoyable. The graphic-novel feel was blended really well with the story telling as we get access to the lesser known heros of the saga. It may have been milking the Lord of the Rings cow but overall, it is a nice experience.
Battle for Middle-Earth II September 30, 2007
It is a definite improvement on the Battle for Middle-Earth 1. However, the soloplay could have had a bit more variety. I am also disapointed that the campaign doesn't have include the Men of the West. But, the added races are a awesome improvement and made the game a lot more fun. The increase in units also added more stragigic play as well as the free-build ability especially in multiplayer. An overall great stategy game.
 Great game September 21, 2007
I'm judging this on mostly what my 7 yo son and friends say. They love playing it for hours. Make sure your computer specs are adequate. It takes a lot of resources.
Great game needs a little improvement August 8, 2007
The skirmish mode is way better with new sites to battle in. You have new factions which are the goblins, dwarves and elves. The best part is the create a hero. Where you can create an awesome hero of good or evil. It records their stats and gives them awards. It has new heroes and new units like The mouth of sauron and the mountain giant. The only problem is that the campaign is horrible. You have the elves and dwarves and the goblins. They are both really boring.
great! July 12, 2007
After playing the first battle for middle earth, I was looking for more. This game delivers offering new factions and even customizable heroes. Great game if you like lord of the rings.
