Rating:8.5
A story driven tactical turn based adventure.
If you're into both Lord of the Rings and turn based games then this is just about the only game you can find (for PS2 that is). That doesn't mean that it's not good. This game has a very in depth story involving charact... Read Full Review

Great game. I recommend it to any RPG fan out there
The Lord of the Rings: The Third Age is a pretty solid game if your an RPG fan or if your an Lotr fan. It is sorta like a final fantasy game in the sense that the battle system is a lot alike. The graphics are pretty goo... Read Full Review

New Heroes of Middle Earth do a good job fighting for you!!!
Not your typical Lord of the Rings characters that you would be expecting to see. But having characters not associated with the movies gives you a chance to look at the same battles from the movies from the eyes of someo... Read Full Review

LOTR: The Third Age carries Tolkien's works very well, but to cram the trilogy into ONE game was not the best of ideas!
A truly legendary trilogy, both when it comes to the books and the movies... and so is this game! -I had very high expectations on this game, and The Third Age steps up to prove very worthy indeed! A cool thing (but a... Read Full Review

While a good start to a LoTR Rpg, it still can have many many improvements.
The game is a great game for lotr fans. You will go to many different locations in middle earth. Character customization is also good with many different skills and stats. The bad things is the combat system. It is turn ... Read Full Review

This role-playing, action, Lord of the Rings game will satisfy any LotR fans and role-play/action/adventure games alike.
I first rented this game a few years ago and have rented it about seventeen different times. I don't know why I haven't bought it yet... I guess because it is hard to find now. THIS IS ONE OF MY FAVORITE GAMES IN T... Read Full Review

The story will make Tolkien fans want to snap the disc in two but the gameplay makes it a good introduction to RPGs.
+ The gameplay is solid enough to make a strong impact to newcomers of the genre. + Most areas capture the scale and beauty of Middle Earth nicely. + Attack animations are well done. - The game will seem shallow to mo... Read Full Review

It could've been much better than it is, if not for some fatal flaws, and the fact EA games made it.
So right from the begining of RPG's, i'm sure somwhere out there somone asked "Why don't we make a LOTR RPG?" well, unfortunatly, EA was the only ones to respond to that call. And it's unfortunate they did, bec... Read Full Review

Worth playing if you are a LotR fan. All others might want to pass as this game can become extremely tedious.
This is your basic of the basic RPG with the LotR gloss put on it. This in a lot of ways feels old school at the same time feeling archaic. If you have played an RPG then you will no doubt learn how to play this game r... Read Full Review

The lord of the rings final fantasy! Final Fantasy X based combat with the main story based around lord of the rings.
This is a truly great game. It is a Final Fantasy based game when your going through the lord of the rings Trilogy. The only problem with the game is you are not characters from the Movies, you are cheap rip-offs. The g... Read Full Review
