The Lord of the Rings Vol. 1

Post by Ravenfreak »

I didn't know there was a LoTR game for the Super Nintendo! I never really been a fan of the movie series to be honest with you so I didn't really bother to look up and see a list of all the games that's been released. Any who it's a hack and slash RPG and it seems to have mix to poor reviews or at least from what I gather from the Youtube comments section of this long play video. Have you ever played this game before?

The game looks ahead of it's time IMO. It's cool to see a game like this on a 16-bit console. :) It's also book accurate too since the films didn't exist when the game came out, so fans of the books will probably dig this game.

Oh? Not often books get video games made of them.
