EA annonce The Lord of the Rings: The Third Age

Electronic Arts announced last night a new game based on the three movies The Lord of the Rings. After the Beam'em all we now get a turn based RPG. It's important to note that a lot of new characters and story elements have been created for the game, I'm sure Tolkien would have liked that a lot.
First screens inside.

    GriftGFX pfft text! we only care for numbers (40 minutes ago)
  • blmbox
    blmbox Yeah, but judging by the content of both reviews, Eurogamer didn't particularly care much for the game anyway. They probably only gave it an 8 to avoid controversy - the review sounded more like a 6. (4 Hours ago)
  • GriftGFX
    GriftGFX 6 to 8 split on Eurogamer, which isn't quite as large but still pretty significant. (6 Hours ago)
  • SimonM7
    SimonM7 Yeah sure, but from what console reviews are saying it's perfectly adequate. I mean I'm sure PC is the way to go, but I sincerely doubt we're seeing a 5 to 9 split score wise or anything. (6 Hours ago)
  • GriftGFX
    GriftGFX not that the Xbox version is "that bad" by most accounts either.. there are plenty of people here playing it who adore it.. but the PC game is recieving higher marks across the board (6 Hours ago)
  • GriftGFX
    GriftGFX @SimonM7: I doubt that's true too, if other reviews I've read are any indication. The game was designed around an interface that's not represented on the Xbox.. (6 Hours ago)
  • SimonM7
    SimonM7 I doubt PC and 360 scores would differ much in EDGE, they simply don't fancy it. DA on the 360 is fine as long as you like the underlying game. (6 Hours ago)
