I can't imagine Viggo Mortensen, big-name actor that he is now, having anything to do with this game.

"Will you take up the sword?"


No. You know what? No I won't. I think I'll take up that ridiculous fucking Cupid arrow-laden bow thing instead.

Looks  a lot like the Fable graphics. Could be interesting. Or it could be total crap like many of the LOTR games.

No fake Samwise Gamgee, I don't want to hear the story of Aragorn, King Of Gondor. Not as a Wii exclusive, at least.

Well this is truly epic... fail. At least it's good they didn't call it "LOTR Origins: Aragorn" or anything with "party" in the title.

What. The. Hell? Lord of the Rings is supposed to be an anti-industrialization based allegory about World War I, not some sort of silly kids brawler for the wii.

As if Conquest wasn't enough, now this. somebody needs to be fired, in fact anybody in the video game industry who decides to make a Lotr games should be shot because being fired is not enough.

I probably won't play this but I think having a product that kids know the license to, making the art design cartoony, and presenting the game as a legend/fairy tale was a good decision for all involved. It's also being made by the team that did Battalion Wars 2 and HotD: Overkill, correct me if I'm wrong, so it's bound to at least be decent for those that do want to play.
We might not love it but it'll make mad bucks.
