    i really enjoyed it because i am a mad Tolkien fan and because its a really decent game overall. in some respects its a mixture of WoW and EQ2 but thats not necessarily a bad thing imo

    the graphics are amazing if you can play it on high or even medium and the environments are some of the best ive seen in a game.

    the game has much more of a storyline than most MMOs thats driven by special quests and it has cutscenes and the like.

    grouping is fun, never got to try PVP but i heard it wasnt the best, but i dunno, i wasnt playing that game for the pvp anyway.

    some cool classes which are fun to play, mostly staples from MMOs although they are given different names.

    good customization in the form of equips.

    good tradeskills which are again alot like wows.

    imo if you going to play this or wow I would go for this one, its obviously not as finalized as wow but its got an amazing future ahead of it what with the new Mines of Moria free expansion coming out soon.

    ive played the game quite alot and i can really recommend you try it atleast, imo its worth the retail and atleast you get some time to decide if you like it or not

    I wanted to buy but LOTRO, but then I thought about WAR, which will be coming out soon and for me WAR,WOW and LOTRO are very similar.
    and so I'd buy the one with the most potential, imo. that'd be WAR.
    for me there are more reasons to play WAR than LOTRO.

    Mines of Moria wont be free :F

    Anyways, best story line and best pve imo. Its a solid game, maybe not the best but definately not bad either.

    im going to wait a good few months til after WARs been released, i know its going to be buggy as hell because every game ive played at the start has been like that...even when they promise it wont be, best to wait til afew patches.

    not saying war doesnt look sick tho

    but then again....even if you'd wait for WAR a few months. I'd rather save my money, than spending it for a game, which I'll probably leave soon anyway.
