what are the reviews looking like for LOTR?

Syn @ Jan 12th 2009 2:51AM

My review is, Screw the reviews and reviewers.

Why base your purchase based off one persons opinion?

There is a demo and renting also doesn't hurt. Or watch some gameplay videos and judge if you see yourself playing it.

I personally enjoyed the demo. Doesn't mean you will.

yeah its becoming hard to trust reviewers, ill agree.

just trying to get an idea of what most are saying is all.

Skate 2 comes out in a week or so doesn't it that's worth while if you ask me

I was skeptical on Conquest until I played the demo, I'm gonna pick it up now. It reminds me of Viking.

Gaucho @ Jan 12th 2009 1:12AM

The demo didn't do much for me. it wasn't too fluid imo. I'm actually happy about the lack of games. the holidays did a number on my wallet.

kentuckyfried @ Jan 12th 2009 1:20AM

lol...I think that applies to everybody here. ;)

The LOTR trailer looked interesting, I haven't tried the demo out yet.

Too true. I still have Valkyria Chronicles, Call of Duty 5, Fallout 3 and Mirror's Edge still sealed. This doesn't even include the ridiculous amount of titles I still have on my Playstation 2. Ballin'.

LoTR is really good. I'm really realllly looking forward to it. Demo was great, but everyone bitches about the "unbalance", they only whine cuz they suck as their class. So buyin it though

feinschmecker @ Jan 12th 2009 2:09AM

Well, skate 2 releases januar 21 (januar 23 in Europe). If that's not worthwhile, I don't know what is!

kevin @ Jan 12th 2009 2:22AM

Amirrr @ Jan 12th 2009 2:56AM

lotr: Conquest .. Is - truly - a good game.

Although I'm not a fan of online games (with few exceptions) .. I'm hoping to have a nice experience with this one.

Dan Rabot @ Jan 12th 2009 5:10AM

Not a fan of Online games?

Spartan, this is madness!

I ONLY play online games these days, it's just not the same beating the AI, it's all about human vs human.

I have games which I've put many hours into, which i've not even touched the offline modes.

I've had COD W@W since launch, finally shot through the single player (just to get nazi zombies) this weekend! I've already prestiged the Online, without having finished the tiny little single player campaign!

Offline games just don't cut it for me anymore.

However the LOTR demo doesn't keep me interested for long. It's not accurate or smooth enough, a bit TOO much like SW Battlefront.

Nineteen88 @ Jan 12th 2009 7:20AM

Until online games become story-rich, I'm off.

Besides, I prefer playing alone. lOl

Towhee @ Jan 12th 2009 8:20AM

It's a typical one or two button hack and slash. I was into this one until playing the demo - in the demo, there is absolutely no space to venture out and really nothing to look at, either... just a brown road and brown walls.

Jimmy @ Jan 12th 2009 8:47AM

I am obsessed with Skate 2 at the moment, can't wait for it, can't buy games before it.

il_duce620 @ Jan 12th 2009 9:06AM

The demo was kinda cool, but I expect that I'll get bored with the "hack and slash" combat. Perhaps I'll rent it? Neat concept with the class system they came up with for the game, though!

Maybe if the demo let me play as Sauron, I'd be more excited about it...
