Lord of the Rings Conquest (EA)
Since another Star Wars Battlefront game isn't in the works (for the time being, anyway), Pandemic's second choice – a free for all battle through J.R.R. Tolkien's universe – will have to do. Choose from Orcs, humans, wizards, elves and even trees as you battle opponents through a number of locations, both online and off. Finally, we get to beat the crap out of Hobbits.

i'm talking about halo wars
I don't think it's all that interesting I mean you can't see what master chief is looking at it's like playing chess
It is obvious that the person who wrote these reviews doesn't play video games...
no Huxley? my ass "20 best of 09"
I dont know about all of you, but where is World of Warcraft? Nearly 10 million people log on every day, and thats not even considered a top game?
idk about the rest of u, and maybe im on my own here, but theres a sonic game commin out in 2009. its comming out in the spring. but come on people, where is it? Sonic and the Black K***ht. why isnt it on the list? was it 2 hard 2 find info on that game? if thats the case, then i understand, but other than that, it shouldve been on the list. Sonic's makin a few come-backs, and give him some recognition 4 that will ya?
shoulda put in the next R&C game, but at least they put in GOW3
I hope GOW3 doesnt suck. I mean, what more can they do with it? A huge epic battle vs Zeus? Oh wait, that was already done in 2. I can tell ya what happens now- Kratos, armed with the ability to move through time and with an army of Titans, fights and hacks his way through the gods, ultimately becoming feared and hated by the end of the game, much like Ares was in part 1. This will lead to GOW#4, in which you control an all-new character to assassinate Kratos. The cycle is complete; the company has ****d you of another 60 bucks.
Im a little afraid that most of these will bomb. There have been plenty of games that looked amazing and just ended up screwing up. Can't wait to play as the Covenant in Halo Wars though, and i hope you can play as one in Recon.
the new lotr looks pretty good. im glad theyre making a new game, especially one like battlefront (imo)
