War Of The Ring Game Delves Into Tolkien Books

Posted by simoniker on from the my-precious-licensing-rights dept.

Thanks to GameSpot for a detailed look at the opposing armies, and IGN PC for a recent hands-on preview of Liquid Entertainment's Tolkien-themed PC RTS, War Of The Ring, which allows to player to recruit Gollum, Nazgul kings, and even Saruman the White, in evil-spawned campaigns such as one that "...tasks the player with retaking the towers built by Gondor, and involves a nice alliance with Shelob", or allows you to command the "...armies of good, which comprise the legions of men, elves, dwarves, and hobbits", and control heroes from Frodo Baggins through Aragorn and Gandalf, in this November-released title from the Battle Realms creators.

  1. LOTR by FUDOH · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    I went to a LOTR premiere. There was a hot chick there. I started up a conversation, she took me into a private booth. We made out, I felt her boobs. I gazed into her eyes. She caressed my face. Then, darkness. She stole my eyes, I felt myself lost, alone, disoriented. I fell to the ground, she threw me back out into the line. I wandered along, I saw a deaf man sitting on the corner. I asked him how much, he told me to look at his fingers. He wanted 9, I talked him down to 6. Then he got mad I guess but I assume I talked him down to one. So then I had my eyes but they didn't work anymore. They were defective!!! So I shot the guy in the head, but I think I missed, but oh well. Then I talked to the girl again, she said I passed the test. So I felt her boobs again. Then the movie started, it was ok. But let's face it, LOTR sucks.
