in desperate need for a remaster, LORD battlefront is a fun time as it’s one of the only games where Gandalf can self destruct in. The alternate history campaign is fun but the AI sucks shit sometimes and every single character talks over each other at once. Stand Fast against the growing tide.
Had TONS of fun when I had sleep overs at my friends house back in the day.
The (original) Star Wars Battlefront of LotR. Honestly super fun, it's a shame the multiplayer didn't last long before being shut down. The campaign is a blast, especially with a co-op partner.
A great idea for a game executed terribly
Takie gówno, że to hit, ale że lotr to było grane dużo
battlefront for the non simps
Not particularly immersive as it's just an action game that occurs in the background of major LOTR story events. However, it's one of the more fun Lord of the Rings in terms of combat and multiplayer. Particularly good for a session or two with friends.
I love this, it's fun. I replay it very often. I still have my old account's trophy data, I beat it for the first time in 2011! I'd say I've replayed it probably two dozen times or so since then. It's easy dopamine for me.
I'm sure it doesn't hold up as well today, but man, I played this just as much as the original Star Wars: Battlefront II back in the day. I absolutely adored both games.
Starwars Battlefront but LOTR-flavored and pretty mid.
Like the Super Smash Bros Brawl of the Battlefront series
6/10: Okay
Both campaigns and the multiplayer are a good bit of fun!
Yeah, it's definitely just battlefront with a Lord of the Rings skin on it. It's still fun though, and has some great couch co-op. The campaign even has some fun levels that weren't included in the movies.
might hurt if your here for some sort of super accurate game but no this one is just plain fun like a game should be (and the only game you fucking destroy saruman by being a hobbit)
Astonishing. This is an insult of an lotr game. Combat feels like utter dogshit , there is no blood or gore at all, the enemies just ragdoll once they have been killed. There is a fucking mage class that anyone can just pick and thus there are dozens of mages in a match. WHO THOUGHT THAT WOULD BE A GOOD IDEA. If they made the mage class a hero pick I would not even complain about it but there are so many mages in a match that it feels not like lotr what so ever. Then there are the scouts that turn invisible... I do not remember invisible units in the movies but maybe that is just because they were invisible the whole time. Playing as an archer sucks as well as the arrows do nearly no damage, headshots do no extra damage, the arrows do not stick in the enemy, they just vanish and the arrow options you have make no sense as well. Then there is the warrior class that can turn their sword into a flaming sword at any time... I am just gonna stop here and will not ever again waste a tought about this game.
Excellent game
Never played the online so can't speak on that, but it wasn't terrible if memory serves.
I went expecting Lord of the Rings Battlefront so had very inflated expectations. While it is that.. sort of... it doesn't have nearly the depth that Battlefront does. None the less a fun little experience for fans of the Peter Jackson movies.

This was not just a cash grab, it was a completely playable game that took something like seven hours to complete. It had some music and I think also voice acting that had been taken directly from the movies. Nobody would play anything like this, but it had Lord of the Rings in it so we had to.
It's good
Battlefront LOTR edition
Look, they failed at stretching LOTR over the Battlefront skeleton, it's undeniable. That said, playing "Hero Matches" in the shire and spamming everyone's OP moves is hilarious.
It's Battlefront with a LoTR coat of paint and it works so well. Love bringing this game up because it's criminally overlooked.
I like the Battlefront formula, so using it for Lord of the Rings was something I appreciated. An enjoyable game despite its various problems.
Not perfect, but I always found it so easy to get roped in and hooked into the fun but brief campaigns.
Only ever played it at the same time as my brother
Literally my entire childhood. Put more hours into this game than any other.
Campaign is pretty short but has some form of storyline reminiscing the film series and battles held. It's very much like the Lord of the Rings take on Star Wars battlefield the original ones back in the early 00's. Another one of those games that would have been much better if I played 10 years ago with the servers still online. Gameplay is pretty fun and enjoyable still a decent pick up if you have some time to kill
Do you think that orcs have hobbies? Is murder a hobby?
It's not a bad game, but damn does the budget show.
Hollow sound design, somewhat confusing combat, imbalanced classes, uninspired missions... Battlefront 2 (2005) this is not. The melee-focus hurts the game quite a bit, and even heroes seem underwhelming.
For my LOTR game fix, I'll stick with Two Towrs, RotK, Third Age, and LOTRO.
