Lord of the Rings The Battle for Middle Earth 2 Computer Game

Pros: THE RTS game for Lord of the Rings fans.

Cons: Medieval Total War is better if you want to pull off complex battle strategy.

The Bottom Line: You won't find a better Lord of the Rings based game on the PC than this.

Pros: Beautiful graphics, great sound, War of the Ring mode great addition, AI is much smarter.

Pros: The graphics are lovely, as is the gameplay and it'll last you ages.

Cons: Main campaign too short, too high specifications, not strategic enough.

The Bottom Line: Despite it being too easy to beat the computer through sheer number of units, it's a fantastic game, both online and off.
