As a huge fan of this book and movie series it was a no brainer to pick this up and play it, like all other Tolkien related games I own. Im more of an sports / fps gamer but like a good strategy game now and then and this is one of the best I think. The gameplay is pretty standard to strategy, but I love the main characters and the powers you can get for them as the game progresses. I chose to powerup Gandalf fully and wow, can he kick some ***. Graphics are great and the game has those few levels that are very challenging to keep you from getting bored. Cant wait for the next one!!
