BFME2 is not for everyone, so it's best to give it a rent or check out the demo on the Marketplace before you buy. And if you've never played an RTS game before, be sure to bring your patience along, as you'll probably need them while you get your bearings.
It's been nearly 4 months to the day that I've owned an Xbox 360. When I finally gave in and abandoned PC gaming, I had recently purchased The Battle for Middle-earth 2, which would hardly run on my system. And now 4 months later, I find myself once again fighting the good fight (well, for now - I haven't started the evil campaign yet) for Middle-earth. This time, on my PlainBlack Xbox 360 (get it?).
