I know we are a bit late on this, but I had to take a trip to my fiance’s family, and so I am sorry, but for those that read only this site for their Xbox 360 news, and don’t go on the Marketplace, you will be happy to know that LotR: Battle for Middle Earth 2 has a demo on the Xbox Live Marketplace now. By waiting a few days to post this, hopefully the download speeds will be amazing for you if you are just finding out, as the demo comes in at 848.84MB of hard drive space.
The demo gives you a lengthy introductory movie, a tutorial, one single player mission, quickmatch multiplayer mode, and is supposedly currently suffering from framedrops, but it is available in all regions.
