Return to Middle-earth in The Lord of the Rings: Conquest where, as a player, you can choose whether you will serve good or evil.
The game has a lot to offer allowing players to choose from eight epic battles from the films as the hero or nine campaigns for the evil side. Wow! You will get to answer the question: "What if Sauron stopped Frodo from destroying the One Ring?" As a fan of the trilogy, I’ve always thought about that so I’m looking forward to trying to solve that mystery through gameplay.
Some of the other game features include the ability to make the characters perform a melee and ranged combat. There are specialty classes too (including Mages and Scouts) for the player who wants to hone his or her skills.
The game takes place in familiar locales, allowing games to “jump into epic battles across Pelennor Fields, Helm’s Deep, Minas Tirith, The Black Gate” and, incredibly, “even the Shire.”
The multiplayer action is also cool. You can have up to three friends playing through split-screen action in the same room (competitively or cooperatively) and up to 16 players can connect online.
