Screens from Middle-earth 
We have some new screens of EA's epic RPG, The Lord of the Rings The Third Age.
Posted by John Grothier - Xbox,GameCube,PlayStation 2 - UK and Europe

Players are invited to return to Middle-earth as Electronic Arts epic role-playing title draws ever nearer. This November Xbox, Game Cube and PlayStation 2 owners will experience an epic quest where players will take on the roles of new characters choosing their own path through Middle-earth while interacting with the heroes and villains of the trilogy.

This title is based on New Line Cinema and Peter Jackson's acclaimed film adaptations of J.R.R. Tolkien's classic The Lord of the Rings trilogy. The Lord of the Rings The Third Age allows players to adventure through Middle-earth, building a party of heroes as they journey. Players battle on the side of the Fellowship, but can unlock additional encounters where they fight on the side of Sauron as they progress. In the game, players will interact with the characters of the Fellowship in a unique structure, taking on individual quests while intersecting the major events of the film trilogy that drive the story forward. Parties will traverse through both familiar and seldom-glimpsed locations, using an innovative turn-based battle system as they fight, encountering the demonic Balrog in the Mines of Moria, defending the fallen city of Osgiliath, or trying to destroy Helm's Deep.

We wait with baited breath to see if Electronic Arts break the habit of releasing shoddy PAL conversions in the UK with this one.
