I give this game five stars because it is very enjoyable although a couple small things would have made it so much greater. The game has great graphics, good sound and shows alot more video from the movie than i expected. The only problem i really have with it is the thing one of the other reviewers mentioned: it doesnt really have any in-game story. Sure it shows video to progress the game but there are no in-game cut scenes or voice overs like the other LOTR games. It is a great strategy game and is really a PS2 looking version of ‘LOTR the third age’ for GBA. Any reviewer that gave the game a really low rating obviously had no idea what the game consisted of and probly expected the game to be like the ps2 versions. Although it could have been better, it is a great game.

Lord of the Rings Tactics lets you enjoy a strategy romp through the world of Aragorn and Legolas on your PSP. The turn-based system allows you to take your time and explore the layout thoroughly before making your moves and decisions.You’re allowed to play as the “good” or “bad” side in a number of situations from the movie. They even have actual movie footage introducing the scenes, so you really get to feel as if you’re immersed in the action. It’s a let down when you get into the character select screen though. Instead of having that same high level of graphics they have some pretty cheesy looking portraits for the characters.With the turn based system you are moving around on a grid. Each turn all of your characters can move a certain distance, and then the enemies can move. After that, everyone can choose who to attack. For people who enjoy wild slice-and-dice games it might seem a little slow and stilted this way. However, it turns the game into a chess like game. You look at the map and figure out how you can outflank your enemies given the terrain and situation.It’s not all close combat attacks. Some of the characters have distance weapons, and others have magic. It helps to think about each character individually, what he or she can do on the board, and keep them as safe as possible while they inflict their damage.The music is straight out of the movies and adds an epic feel to the game. Since the cut scenes are actual movie footage, you get to hear Frodo, Gandalf a.

For a tactics type game, this one has bigger, better looking, more realistic graphics than most. Because enemy and hero units move simultaineously, and it is simpler than most tactics games, it is faster paced than most as well. It features skills/spells and items similar to “LOTR – The Third Age”, which must be purchased in-between battles. All “Heros” gain experience from each battle, even if they were not in it. Not a game for purists, if you would like to battle it out as LOTR Heros with a horde of Orcs in turn-based combat, you’ll like it.The only downside is that the game consists of battles only, there are no story line descisions to direct the course of the game. It does feature clips from the LOTR movies that introduce each battle, but they really do not give the game a feeling of continuity.I am basically comparing this to FF Tactics and similar games. I would hesitate to call it an RPG.

This game was awesome. And it’s still awesome. I remember playing this a few months after it came out.

This is a great game for the psp. For those of you that are Final Fantasy fans this game plays like Final Fantasy Tactics.You can play either the side of Moria or the Fellowship. Some reviews call this a short game. If you only play it once with out getting everthing for your heros, it is. However I’m taking the time to get everthing and the memory stick claims I have about nine hours play time. I still don’t have all the Moria skills. I still need to lv the side of the fellowship and get there skills. I belive you could spend 20+ hours to get everthing.The graphics on this game is the best i’ve seen on a handheld. The sound is great as well. The game also has clips from all three movies.Now the down side. As you work your way through the game, all your heros gain exp. It don’t matter if they was in combat or not. However, you still have spend the credits on your heros skills. The highest lv you can go is lv 15 which = 8,700 exp.Over all this was a great effort by EA.

I love tactics games and LOTR, so bought this one by instinct without reading any review. The game didn’t disappoint me, is very fun, fast paced and the animation is amazing, besides the strategy and planning your moves you will enjoy just by looking the characters executing the attacks and spells.The only negative is the fact that you will complete all the levels relatively in a short time (maybe with more levels I wouldn’t get enough either) so after completing it with the bad guys, I tried to start again with the Fellowship, and you get the same missions but on the other side of the ring. I have to admit that playing with Sam and Frodo is not closely fun compared with the Witch King attacks, so really don’t went too far with the good guys. I guess I will be playing again from the start but trying to win in less moves or getting different skills and items to slain the good guys faster (sorry for my sadistic side).

I’ve been skeptical about the LotR games since I bought the PC version of Fellowship of the Ring — not a bad game, but definitely not what I was expecting. I waited a couple of days before opening this one because I was preparing myself to be let down. Wow! Was I wrong…LotR: Tactics is a turn-based, combat-centric strategy game based on the movies more so than the books. If you leave all the geeky fact-checking behind (trust me, I know how difficult that is… the LotR movies without Tom Bombadil??? Arwen with a sword???) and just concentrate on the game, you’ll get much more enjoyment out of it.There are six playable heroes – Aragorn, Legolas, Gimli, Gandalf, Sam, and Frodo – that appear in the Fellowship portion of the game, some are required for certain missions, others are selectable. I haven’t played the other side yet, but you are also able to run the game playing the evil forces (cool!). Each character has skills that can be upgraded by purchasing buffs between battles, and all characters have access to a common pool of items you can purchase. Each character is ideally suited for one specific purpose, but mastering the game requires knowing the right combinations of skills that will accomplish goals fastest.The combat system is pretty straightforward, as is the movement system. It is imperative to master movement strategies, as this will determine what skills and attacks are usable in various situations. Characters typically move 3 spaces per turn, but may.

I have had a PSP for a few months now, and 6 games that suck, besides the Namco Museum (for Pac-Man of course). Finally, a good game has come out. If you are a LOTR fan, you’ll love being in the battles that take place on Middle Earth. It takes some thinking to play this one (kind of a chess match), so don’t be ready for some mindless sword slinging.
