The Beautiful Game With Minor Inequalities!

User Rating: 9.7 | The Lord of the Rings: The Battle for Middle-Earth II PC
Overview: A lovely game that will capture the heart of any gamer that enjoys playing RTS'. With superb gameplay, fantastic graphics, immense sound and a top sequel to LOTR:BFME, this game really lives up to the high expectations that gamers expect to see from top game publishers and developers such as EA Games.

The Details:
This masterpiece is guaranteed to keep any gamer occupied for hours upon end. But is there something that is itching the back of your neck when you play this game? A little annoyance here and there? For me it is the frustration of “rush” games that most players tend to do whilst playing online. This is when players attempt to “rush” their opponent before they get a chance to strike with a force and prevent needed resources from being acquired. I didn’t like this in the original BFME game and nothing has prevented it from happening in BFME2. I prefer to build an empire before launching my attacks.
There would be a simple solution to this, Rise Of Nations uses a method of which the player can chose whether or not they want the AI to “Boom”, focus on building empires before assaulting, or rush that will make the AI focus on quick strikes.
If EA incorporated this feature into skirmishes for single player modes and multiplayer modes, it would easily solve my only real problem with this game making it nearly perfect! They could do this in the forthcoming expansion pack, Rise Of The Witch-King, however I doubt we will see any such changes unfortunately.

Summary:
We as human beings tend to focus on the bad points, and apart from my only query about this game, it is fantastic and absolutely wonderful game to play. I strongly recommend this game for any gamers, especially LOTR fans and RTS fanatics :D !
