Haven't even watched it yet so I can't say the score, but I'm predicting an 8.4

Enjoy!

Doesn't look like anything new, but it definitely looks like a good time. Plus it's been a long time since I visited Middle Earth in a game.

Damn. I usually tend to agree with GT's reviews too for the most part. This is unfortunate. On one hand, it looks like a great time, on the other the $40 gaming coupon I was going to use on this could very well be used on Uncharted 3. What to do, what to do.

IGN gave it a 7. Can't say I didn't expect it, still a bit disappointed though. I will still be getting it though, I love Lord of the Rings.

I'm hoping to grab it on a good black friday sale, I had a lot of fun with it at the PAX demo.

Normally I would say 7.2 is not a bad score to be worried (haven't watched the review so I can't comment on that), but then looking at their podcast... they act like 7.0 games are not worth buying. Not looking good.

LOTR is one of the worst series, imo i heard it was based on the movies? Eh, well i dont really watch movies so i wouldnt know, but judging from what ive seen on youtube, its an ugly game, it trys to much to be like Dark Souls.

But i do prefer japanese styled rpg games though.

wtf? Its not like dark souls, it a co-op focused RPG allowing three people to play together. it tells a separate story from the movies but events occur at the same time.

It tells a story that was briefly mentioned in the books.

Any news, how is the PC version?

Wow I was actually interested in this game... I think IGN and Gametrailers review their games far too quickly w/o taking their time to play it well and quickly judge.... they probably don't even beat the game.

Sounds good to me. So many times games that I have been anticipating score in this range and I end up loving them to death. I have this on the way from Gamefly and am looking forward to enjoying it before I pick up Skyrim next week. Should be fun.

Have you played Dark Souls or even watched some of the gameplay from LOTR: War in the North? If you did you'd realize they are completely different.

the only good LOTR games were Two Towers, ROTK and War of the Ring

BFME1 was decent, the sequel was garbage
