It's Battlefront, but not as we know it..
Friday 13 June 2008
Being a big fan of the Star Wars: Battlefront titles, [but who wasnt?] I was really excited when I found out they were making a new project, but nothing could of prepared me for this.
Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you:
Yes, that's right. According to Pandemic Studios
"For fans, Lord of the Rings: Conquest gives you the most action packed experience set in the [LOTR] universe. You have a fully realised fantasy battlefront with the ability to engage in melee combat, ranged combat, ride creatures, control siege equipment, play as giants and make your own choices on the battlefield."
Looking at the hallmark of the battlefront games, it's hard not to get excited at the prospect of running around a battlefield cutting people to shreds. To add to the package, it's been announced you can control all the races. I figured, yadda yadda, elves, dwarfs, orcs. What I didnt expect, was Hobbits, and what I REALLY didn't expect, was a balrog. Yep, balrogs are playable.
Conquest is due to feature two campaigns, one good, one evil, and will feature 4 player co-op both on and offline, and a nice 16 player online mode.
I have a few reservations about how well melee combat will work online but eh, it's got a fucking balrog in it. Who cares?
