The Lord of the Rings Online allows players to forge heroic legacies in the War for Middle-Earth, experience an evolving persistent recreation of Tolkien's fantasy realm where you can establish unique reputations, discover and wield legendary weapons in strategic battles, while adventuring solo or in Fellowships.

The work of J.R.R Tolkien is as popular as ever, the second movie in the trilogy involving our favorite “burglerobbit” Bilbo Baggins, had its premiere in the middle of December, and the MMORPG LotRO, based on the world of Middle-earth are still going strong.
