I loved the Lord of the Rings books and later the movies that came out but never got around to playing a Lord of the Rings video game until Lord of the Rings Conquest. I really wasn't impressed by the game and was pretty bored with it quickly. I think I played thru half of it and stopped at the evil retelling of the story. It just was a lot of running around and mashing on buttons and once and awhile getting to play as one of the hero's from Lord of the rings. Even that was underwhelming and playing as Argon or the Warrior class didn't feel too much different from each other. I wouldn't even say this was a good rental and certainly not a buy. If your a Lord of the Rings fan I won't say you should pick it up just because of what it is. It's just a sad grab for some more cash.
