I am considering getting it.

How does it compare with other Strategy games?

hmmm, ive just realised this is better off in the "other games" forum. Moderators please move it?

yea, wrong forum dude :)

I dunno, i got bored with B&W1 before i had even finished the tutorial.. which i was annoying as i had just spent £30 on the game.... i think BW2 got not so good reviews

it got 80% plus on all the web reviews i looked at.

If you like the previous types of game such as populous then yes otherwise you'll find it as a rather simple RTS benhind the creation of your minion

personally, i think it's a nice game, but i expected more...
luckily i haven't bought it myself, but borrowed it :)

Honestly, if you like the Creature in the first game, you'll be dissapointed. On it's own, B&W2 is an average game, and no multiplayer.
