    The Lord of the Rings should make for an epic RPG. The story is already there.

    I thoroughly enjoyed LotR: The Third Age back in the day (7 years ago). Definitely worth checking out if this game doesn't pan out.

    I really liked the PS2 LOTR games and haven't picked up any of the current gen games. This game sounds like it might be going back to gameplay similar to the old style games, which would be awesome.

    With the success of the movies, I'm really surprised that there are not many LotR games. Hopefully the new Hobbit movie coming out will spur some interest in making more LotR games. It's such a great universe and story

    Somehow... I've never played a LOTR game... and when I think about it, they should be fun - there's plenty they can do with these. Maybe it's time...

    The elven sky king
    Wish upon three rings of might
    Under the night sky

    The stone song will ring
    Seven lords will dance tonight
    Silence of the ring

    Mortal men will rise
    Nine tolls of nine bells of doom
    The shadow will rule

    The darkness of time
    One shadow to bring the end
    One ring to rule all
