    Stick with it through those slow, opening Hobbiton chapters and you’ll be immortalised in the terrible poetry of Elvensong. No doubt.

    The game suffers from some repetitive missions with a lot of "fetch this and find that," plus many of the camera angles are finicky.

    I like it, especially playing Arigorn, anyone who disagrees doesn't like thinking about how to get past obstacles.

    Games like this are why the LOTR license was so carefully guarded for years; sad to see it was all for naught. It's been a long time since I've been unfortunate enough to play something this sad.… Expand
