Let me start off by saying that this game is good, not great.I was actually pleasantly surprised, because I asked for this game for CHRISTMAS after seeing it on the xbox website.To me it seemed like one of my all time favorite orig. Xbox games LOTR 2 towers.Then I read the reviews before getting the game and was horrified.Maybe I was surprised because I wasn't expecting much, but I found the game to be fun and have that familiar satisfying combat system that I loved in LOTR.You learn magic as you progress and it's awesome being able to push, pull, use fire, and fire magic arrows at enemies.There's a good mix of fighting and puzzles here.at times you must figure out where to jump, climb, and or shimmy and use magic to build bridges.

The dragon levels are a sore spot in the game.Lack of camera panning is a cramp, but dealable.True, this doesn't offer a lot of replay value and is shorter than some games, but actually about average for this type of game (not every game is going to have 100+ hours of game time like Oblivion).This may not be your bag if your more into sandbox style (GTA, Saint's Row) games.As I grew up with linear games I find sandbox games aren't my bag. I say it's a solid rental for players who enjoy linear story driven offline play.

What I generally do is pick up games used on ebay or Amazon and resell them when done.I generally break even, sometimes even turn a profit.

Good gaming to you all,
