Not all it was hyped up to be.

I wasn't sure what to think of this game. At first I liked it. It was a Lord of the Rings game that wasn't based on a movie and it had a lot of RPG characteristics I liked. But after the first hour or two I couldn't stand it. The random battles were too often (like every 4 or 5 seconds) and the enemies were so repetitive. If you look at top games now you will find loads of different types of enemies in different areas. But this game, and I believe it's due to some licensing thing, just seemed rehashed. It was a valid attempt at what could have been a really good game but it just wasn't done right. To sum it all up, this is the only game I've ever sold back.
