I will start off by saying I am a HUGE LOTR fan,I love the books,and I love the movies...I don't like The Third Age.I'm not obsessed with video games,and I dont even know what RPG means,but if that's the type of combat...I don't like it.This game gets very annoying after a while.I cannot get past the Mines of Moria cause there's these stupid goblins that scream there heads off and always kill you!I really don't like the stupid magic everyone seems to have,even the goblins!And since when do orcs become so powerful!Anyways...It's kinda cool to play characters that were never part of the trilogy,but they're just spinoffs of Borimir,Arewen,Gimli,and Strider.The one cool part is the exploration.Its really cool to just wander around and see all the parts that we didnt see in the movie.But I still dont really like this game...but maybe it gets better if I'd try to finish it.Botom line,buy the Return of the King game instead,now thats an awesome Lotr game.

when i first rented this game, i was so exited that another lord of the rings games were out. but it wasn't like the others.
i hate games that you have to take turns, and this was one of them.i played this for 5 min. and was thinking,"this is a load of crap".im just gonna stick to the other lord of the rings games such as the two towers instead of this crud

could be much better

I got this a few days back and I must say "DO NOT BUY". Sure, you battle a couple of foes, but you probably NEVER will finish this game. You'll waste more than $10, so DO NOT BUY!!!!!!!!!!!
>:(

it at the same time has too much and too little fighting. you have to do alot of exploring but at random times you will enter a fight.

The Third Age is Awesome

The Third Age is an okay game. What the games lacks in the fact that the story isn't very good, it makes up for in the graphics and the music. This game is also really fun to play, you just can't stop playing it! The characters are almost entirley customizable, the only problem is that each character can have only one kind of weapon at a time. The game is long, like most good RPGs, but it is too easy. On my first time playing through it on the medium level, I did not die once. It is impossible to die, because every two minutes there is a save station, which heals you, and every chest carries a billion healing items, so at the end of the game, you have infinite healing items. The game also gives you items that are two good to use in combat, like Morgul Decay, which allows you to kill the final boss before he can attack you. Also, the on the hardest enemies, the games gives you heroes from the fellowship that cannot die. In the final level, you fight eight ringwraiths succesivly, and you get ARagorn, who has an ability that can take away half the health of four of them at the same time.

well ive played allot of rpgs but this overall was the bust fun with new foes new wepons great skills i especially like the elfstones some increase action points some increase health and ect. but some even give you a whole new variety of skills!great levels from the movie no choice of difficulty so if you start s new game it might be easier from experience,but beside that it would be pretty dificult especially the bosses ranging from trolls balrog and even the witchking of agnmar!ive had this game for months and havent got past pellenor fields!the mumakil and withcking will defeat you if u dont hav mountian shieldand an elfstone of spirit enchancement he could stun you and kill you in about 3 to 5 hits!thats y i sugges u rentt if u dont like its probably not your thing(: ok everyone im just a kid but thats my opion get this game(: or i will get u!

When I got this game I was excited and expected it to be about the same as the other two lord of the rings games. However I soon learned that it was a cheap RPG game. RPGs work on game boy but thats about all they work for. I never would have guessed that if you combined the great Game Cube and game boy advance versions of lord of the rings that you would get a worse game. Don't get me wrong though it's still a great game and I would reccomend buying it but just don't get your hopes up for a premium sequil.

COOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Finally,a LOTR's game that's not hack'n'slash.Now a like LOTR's that are like that.The Graphics's are amzing,so much you can see every ugly zit on orc's face.(Be advisted none of these chariter's apper in the series but get figt THE BALROG beside Gandalf,in short,you see reglar events,and reglar peopel!!)
