3Great game Bad translation  Oct 01, 2008
I have played this game on the PC before i bought it for the XBox360, and i must say i am dissapointed at the translation from PC to console. the interface prior to starting the game is "whack", hard to tell which race or team you pick if you are not 100% into the LotR series i guess. only supports 4 teams on Console Versus 8 on PC which takes the epic battle you would expect to a lower level. the game is not bad at all, just dissappointed a bit at how easy they seemed to have made it on themselves to put it on consoles. tiny bit of lag when you first start the actual game but graphically exceptional quality. i would recommend this game if you have not played the PC version of it.

4Best RTS for the XBox 360  Sep 27, 2008
This is a great RTS - and almost as good as the PC version. The battles look and sound really great in Hi-Def on the big screen.

4Close notch RTS, closer to 4,5 stars though.  Jun 15, 2008
Everyone compares this game to CC3, to me they aren't in the same ballpark. Being a huge fan I was completely sucked into the story and really felt like a part of something. I had the feeling that if I lost the battles, Middle Earth would fall to the Dark Lord Sauron. In CC3, I never really got into the odd story. It does a much better job with the different units and other features. Although, I do believe that CC3 is way more polished, has better graphics, and is overall more refined than LOTR BFME 2. Overall, I fell that if you really want a techniqually sound game, then CC3 is probably for you. If you want to be drawn into a story and feel bound to the characters as if you were a part of them, then LOTR BFME 2, is probably for you.


Graphics 6.5 ( Middle of the road, nothing extraordinary)
Sound 7.0
Story 8.5 ( Good side plot to the movies).
Overall 8.5

5Sweet RTS for a console  Mar 27, 2008
Console RTS's have been pretty bad as a general rule. This one really changed that with a sweet control scheme. If you like RTS games and The Lord of the Rings then pick this up. It may not be as revolutionary as the upcoming Endwar....but it's a good time.

1disapointing  Feb 09, 2008
This is a great RTS... on the PC.
Unfortunately after playing 3 different Xbox360 copies on 2 different consoles, I have come to the conclusion that it will never work properly on Xbox 360. Please do yourself a favor and don't buy the game for 360.
The PC version is a well done, fast paced, entertaining game, it is just to o buggy to even play on a 360.
