Oh god, why?

User Rating: 1 | The Lord of the Rings: Conquest PS3
Anyone who says that this is the best lord of the rings game, obviously never played the great Return of The King on the PS2. Neither did the devs either, or else maybe they would have had an inkling into what a Lord of The Rings game should play like. This game doesn't even come close. Instead we are treated to a terrible confusing mess that continuesly craps in it's own corner, whilst trying to boast that it is a Starwars Battlefront with swords and magic. It doesn't come close to this one either.

The reasons behind my bashing TLOTRC is justified by these very comparisons, each from the last generation, in that they had better graphics (I don't care if they were on the ps2), way better controls, better camera, better...better everything in fact.

Maybe having the alternate storyline where you get to play as the bad guys may make me more motivated to play it, but even that small glimmer of hope fades as you find out that you have to finish the goodies side first. ARRGGGHH!!!! I cannot sit through this tripe just to see if it's more fun if I play as a bad guy.

I suggest that you keep well away from this embarrassment to Middle Earth, no matter how much of a fan you are, because it is really, really and a side order of really craptastic crap of the smelliest kind.
