Hmm, IGN didn't have good things to say about it. Maybe a good rental game.

From what I heard, it's an action based game, similar to LOTR Return of the King.

I loved that game. Grab a buddy and kill waves of baddies in a LOTR universe. If this is like that, then I will certainly give it a shot.

LOTR has run it's course imo. They need to just focus on the mythology of middle earth (perhaps delve into the Similarion stories, there was much more to Tolkien's universe than the LOTR). The LOTRO really should have been the last word, and in many ways it is, unfortunately it ends up like too many other MMOs though. If they could make a game w/ Morgoth v.s. the Valdar (I think that's what they were called, it's been a bit), it'd be nice, or at least something exploring other corners space and time in middle earth (I'd like to see a story w/ Tom Bombladil as well).

Yeah its about where you have your choice to choose bad or good. And it is what about if Frodo never mad it to destroy the ring. And it is also multiplayer online co-op.
