The Lord of the Rings Online Review

Hooked Gamers has written up a three-page review of Turbine’s The Lord of the Rings Online: Shadows of Angmar, giving the newly launched MMORPG an overall score of 8/10.

Lord of the Rings: Shadows of Angmar is thus far a solid title of the MMO genre. With scores of new Lord of the Rings fans jumping on the band wagon and those who knew the wonders of Middle Earth from the books, Shadows of Angmar offers a great chance to experience some of the obscure parts of the world from an adventurer’s point of view. Though you may not be able to play as one of the primary characters known from J.R.R. Tolkien’s stories, the player will be able to interact with them on more than a few occasions throughout their travels. In the long run, LotR Online may not be the WoW killer everyone is waiting for, but it will surely have a vast and loyal player fan base that will make Lord of the Rings Online a long-lasting and mainstream MMO.
