I have not beaten the game yet, so this is an incomplete review.
Pros:
First, hardcover case that came with the gold edition is nice
Game play is very similar to the first one
Nemsis system is much better. Orcs actually adapt to your fighting style in real time. Eg: you shoot arrows at him, he becomes arrow-proof!
Also really enjoy the new gear and gear upgrading
Cons:
HATE the menu screens and menu navigation
story is not that great, did not live up to LOTR
HUD clutter (you can turn it off)
