EA: "Our licensing deal with Middle-earth Enterprises has expired, forcing us to shutdown the online services for The Lord of the Rings™ games. We hope you have enjoyed playing these games online and appreciate your patronage. There's still time for one last epic tower rush!..."
Game Rant Writes "Lord of the Rings: Conquest was like a fantasy take on Battlefront, and the concept really needs to be revisited in another Middle-earth title."
Hell no, it's time for proper LOTR single player open world RPG, and a new battle for middle earth RTS
It would be good if it was like conquest but we know it would be filled with microtransactions and battle passes. So no.
Bad ports don't necessarily mean bad games, but they're inexcusable nonetheless. From the lazy to the straight-up weird, poor ports can cost companies a Bad ports don't necessarily mean bad games, but they're inexcusable nonetheless.

There are oh, so many sequels in video games these days. We've got eight games that we wish would get a follow up.
I cant agree with a lot of games on this list. Far, far more deserving entries - which I wont go into now. All I will say is Blast Corps U...I can dream, cant I?
The Darkness games are among my favorite games of last gen. Both were very unique in their own ways. I'd love to see a third iteration though I doubt it'll happen.
Folklore 2 would be nice as well.
Folklore was great! Great mechanics and atmosphere. Shame it never got too much notice
Yeah. If I hadn't played the demo I would've probably missed out on it as well.
Well apart from Jak and Daxter the rest are total crap and I for 1 are glad there was no more of that crap, now if you want to talk about Heavenly sword and Medievil now thats 2 that should have another go at this gen
I think that it's a shame that EA is Shutting down it's online servers for so many games, I think that they should make it a point to inform potential buyers of their software that they only intend to allow you to enjoy the online portion of their games for 2 years then you'll have to pay to buy a newer game in order to continue to play their games. So in effect it's the same thing as the on line pass. If you don't purchase a new game and get a new code then they'll discontinue access to the online purchase of older games, in order to force you to pay for more games to enjoy online.
Hello? "As of April 6 2010". It's 2011, bud. You're a year late with this.
Here are the server shutdowns I think you're trying to report on: http://www.ea.com/2/service...
This is crap. Sony has supported Warhawk, with dedicated servers, since 2007. People S on Sony sometimes, but they treat their loyal customers better than anyone.
Disposable games. Online gaming is here and now -- There is no nostalgia to be had and they will never age beyond their years of prime time deliverance. I hate online gaming for this reason. It's also ruining the single player experience and or potential to a bigger margin than you might think.
Why pour 40% of your resources into an online deathmatch when you know the servers will be shutdown in 2 years? Seems kind of pointless. And this is also why games made today are forgettable and forgotten so easily. There is nothing made today that will ever amount to a Pacman, Donkey Kong, Super Mario Bros, Zelda, Metroid and so forth and so on. Classic, nostalgic gaming died a long, long time ago.
They gotta do what they gotta do.
