The Lord of the Rings: Conquest
(5.0)
1
2009
The Lord of the Rings: Conquest is a 2009 action game developed by Pandemic Studios and published by Electronic Arts. It is derived from The Lord of the Rings film trilogy, and borrows many gameplay mechanics from Pandemic's Star Wars: Battlefront games. The game allows the player to play as both the forces of good and evil. Pandemic was aided by Weta Digital in developing the game. They provided many of their digital models, including the fell beasts. Pandemic used elements that were cut from the films, and have taken inspiration from J. R. R. Tolkien's original fantasy series, such as a level based loosely around Balin's conquest of Moria, in which Gimli attempts to retake the dwarven city from the orcs. Some inspiration was less direct: the armies of Rohan and Gondor decide not to attack Minas Morgul in the novel, but a level in the game is based on what might possibly have happened if they had. The game uses Howard Shore's score to the films as its soundtrack. The Lord of the Rings: Conquest received mixed reviews, with criticism focusing on its combat, graphics, voice acting, balance issues, artificial intelligence, bugs, and multiplayer.

The Lord of the Rings: Conquest
My favorite universe meets one of my favorite video game formats. Lord of the rings battlefront was so much fun and I think way underrated. All the different classes were fun to play as with tons of special classes and most of the heroes/villains you would want to play as. I don't think there are any other games that you can experience that, especially on the villains side. Destroying the shire as Sauron is an incredible and unique experience lol. Speaking of which, the campaign is great, and I love that they created a evil story line.

The little multiplayer I played was fun, although some more effort could have been put into balancing the classes. However this game was so much fun in single player and local co op that it makes up for that.
