No, they didn't like it very much: Gamspot rated the game just 5.7/10 in their review, and they state that only trie fans will enjoy the game for long. Here's their summary:
Unless you are a highly critical, extremely demanding Tolkien fan, you probably won't criticize The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring for its production values. The game generally looks and sounds quite good, but unfortunately, it just isn't that much fun to play, thanks to its control and camera problems, along with its occasional crashes and lack of an autosave feature. If you're looking to visit (or revisit) the fantasy worlds that Tolkien created in The Fellowship of the Ring, you might be better off picking up a copy of the book. |
