fantasy

I first played this game through several friends of mine who owned it first. Now, I am a large LOTR fan, but not one of those junkie-hippie-nerdy types that do nothing else but read, watch, or play Tolkien. To me, this game wasn't a huge dissapointment. I don't play many RPGs that are as interesting as this one. And I must admit, a mission-based LOTRs game: C'mon, who woulda thought of that? True, the story isn't told well, but that factor is made up for in many ways. For example, I like how you get to know Bilbo through his actions in the game. For example, the script doesn't exactly reach out and tell you Bilbo isn't the outdoor-sy type. You learn that through the audio of his yelps, shouts, and whimpers. These eventually change into downright war cries. Stuff like that I deem interesting. I haven't played the XBOX version. But I can tell you now: I don't like all the people on this page dissing the game. It's not the novel (never will be) and it isn't anything more than GBA. Game Boy, folks. All kidding aside: this game is good. If you're not a Tolkien freak, I reccomend it.

This is the best GBA game ever made! I am so hooked on playing it. The graphics are wonderful and gameplay is intense because of all the action and adventure in The Hobbit. You should buy this game! It rocks!!!

This game was awsome!There was a lot of adventure.I never have gotten bored of it and I never will.I would give it a 10 star rating. I highly recomend this item.
