This game brings back memories. If you are a fan of LotR and RPG's then this is a perfect fit for you. I don't know how it holds up today but it sure is a great game. It has a great story that takes place in the background of what was happening in the trilogy. The characters are all great. You can upgrade weapons and armor as you progress through the game and in doing so your character appearance obviously changes.

The combat system is a spot on clone of Final Fantasy X, I view that as a plus.
