After visiting the official site and am inclined to pick up a copy, at least for a rental.... you sure it's a 10?  | |

Join Date: Nov 2003 Location: Brooklyn, NY Posts: 392 | Yeah I really feel this game is a 10, everytime I pick it up I feel like I am thrusted into the LOTR world. The voice acting, narration, its all just top notch. One of the things I am most impressed with is that action doesn't focus on you at times, the orcs are attacking the wall and so they are going after the archers at times, or assaulting the ents. Its just amazing, so far I havent had more fun playing a Xbox game, especially of this genre. | |

Join Date: Oct 2003 Location: O-Town Posts: 3,003 | I was about start a thread on this, good thing I used the search feature first. I'm going to read the whole review now. I played it for a while at EBGames today and I got inclined to rent it. I have that Games Freedom Pass from Blockbuster so I rented it.
But I was wondering what the opinions around here were, I do think it sucks you can't skip cutscenes since some of them are so long. I only got this from the 10 mins. I played at the store though.

Join Date: Oct 2003 Location: O-Town Posts: 3,003 | I think Hughes means how were you able to get a review posted. zer0-fault recently became a staff member, just like me, but the review was posted before the official announcement was made. Check the Help, Feedback and Requests forum for the announcement by xbox.
zer0 please correct me if I'm wrong...
