how is LEGO Lord of the Rings?

you can play it without watching the movies but I think its more enjoyable if you watch the movie first. It's good to see how close the game has imitated the characters in lego LOTR.

But tbh, play only the game w/ a friend or two. It's boring to play LEGO by yourself

Well, u don't have to watch the movies, but I think it's better if u know what it is about. The game itself it's good, lot of funny scenes and as stated before you should play it with friend, that is what are these games about imho. :]

I'd get it. I haven't watched any of the movies and have been planning too + I want to read the books. The voice acting was taken straight from the films though, so the story will have small bits cut out but the main parts of the movies will be in there. As a huge Lego games fan I'd recommend it. Plus, it follows Batman 2, so Middle Earth is open for you to explore.

Im surprised theres anyone that hasn't already seen the movies, but yea, you can enjoy the game without watching the movies first. Do watch the movies if you're even remotely interested in similar genre movies they are epic

Well...I´d buy it...but I can´t find any code for a bigger discount so I guess I´ll have to pay the 50%

This is the best ad I've seen for it. I want it after seeing this.

damm a € short :/

It's going on sale on Amazon tomorrow through the 26th for $7.50.

The problem wouldn't be playing the game without seeing the movie, but rather seeing the movie after playing the game. I'm assuming the Lego version would just give away the most important scenes, which could ruin such a great trilogy. So i'd really recommend watching the films first.
