"LOTR + Star Wars Battlefront = awesomeness. Right? On paper it should be the greatest thing to hit the streets since the McRib sandwich. On the PS3, which is the only place you can find this demo at the moment, it is truly a mixed bag."
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.
The Lord of the Rings would make a brilliant open world, single-player RPG, filled with loot, lore and stories of the player's adventures!
I cannot express how much I would like an open world Lord of the Rings along the lines of Skyrim.
The story of how the galaxy was robbed of the third installment of the Star Wars: Battlefront series, and the Lord of the Rings game responsible for it.
Battlefront 3 is the new Duke Nukem. Every developer that was associated with the game has had bad luck, Pandemic and Free Radical both closed, and Slant Six laid off a ton of workers and made the awful Resident Evil Raccoon City, in fact some of the code from SWBF Online was in the game, so that could of ended up being SWBF Online. It makes me shutter.
I think LucasArts just doesn't like making money or selling millions of games. The fact that they put two Battlefront games out at the end of last generation, and yet haven't put out a single one in this extended generation is sickening.
That LOTR game was awful. The issue here is Lucas arts since im still waiting for another rogue squadron and its becoming more and more obvious that THEY DONT KNOW what their own fans want when its so obvious to gamers.
Also wish games this gen was like last gen. I remember playing every game i bough for like 4 years and then MAYBE selling it. Its a little different with PC though since i own games which i bought from 2004. Now it tends to be a 1-3 year life cycle until a sequel comes out...
Lucasarts is dead. They are a shadow of what they used to be. They have gone stale and to the points others have made, they have NO IDEA what their customers want.
If they do, then (like Square Enix) they are working hard to not deliver what is being asked for.
I'm more sad there won't be anymore Mercenaries games. They really did make some genuinely fun open-world games.
I don't like Mcrib's at all.
But the demo was alot more fun than I thought it would be
interesting to see no mention of the near ps2 quality graphics
Graphics aside.I'm seriously loving this demo.I've been playing it religiously for the past three days.Even tho there's only two maps and four different classes.I can't get enough of it !
Hopefully they fixed a few of the bugs and glitch's but either way it's a day one buy for me.
The demo is awesome. And with regards to the graphics, are you kidding? The graphics take a serious downgrade when playing online - that's to be expected - but did you even bother playing the singleplayer? The graphics are very pretty... nay, even stunning.
This is a day one purchase for me. I've been playing the demo constantly for 3 days now.
