Decent graphics is the best I can muster...

Well, my parents taught me that if you can't say something nice; don't say anything at all. Hence the title. The graphics are decent. The uhmm "characters" are well rendered. There is slim pickings to cling to with any real commitment here. You play the game as one of 4 generic non-named classes: warrior, archer, scout or mage. They have specialized battle moves that seem quite different but the onslaught of enemies always reduces the battle to near mindless button mashing. This game should have been classified almost arena fighting/ action as that it the way it feels. You have no choices, no dialog, no puzzles. No way is this game "adventure". It almost feels like an online multiplayer game pared down to a solo experience (in single mode, I mean). I am sure the multiplayer aspect is more fun than the solo since it is so obviously geared that way. If you like endless battles in (granted) beautiful environments from the movies, you will love this game. If you don't care for rigid storylines, button mashing battles galore, and really hard solo campaigns that lead to endless repetition of those same battles, you might want to wait for the Lord of the Rings: The White Council. I know I wish I would have.
