Digital Battle: The Lord of the Rings Conquest Review – Button-Mashing Orc-Kicking Fun

DB writes: "It's admittedly rather strange to be thinking about The Lord of the Rings in terms of a button mashing beat-em-up brawler, but with recent Electronic Arts release The Lord of the Rings: Conquest, I have to do exactly that. And even more strangely, I find I'm not disappointed.

Now, I'll be honest. I fell asleep briefly while watching The Lord of the Rings in theatres. I found it that dull. But by the time The Two Towers and The Return of the King came out, I actually found myself enjoying those. Why, you ask? What was the key difference between the dullest movie I've seen since I was forced to watch While You Were Sleeping and two sweet fantasy action flicks? Simple-ACTION."
