I recently rented it from blockbuster, and found it quite entertaining, and got through about half of it before I had to bring it back (I got to a point where I had to finish Aaragorn & Friends in beating the King of the Dead guy, and Gandalf in Minis Tirith) and got stuck there. Now, heres the whole point of this post: Should I go out & buy the game, with the fact in mind that its Boxing Week sales are huge and I should get a good price on it, or should I just rent it again. Thanks for your advice [img]smile.gif[/img]

If it's not a game you plan on playing again after you beat it, then just rent it. I've noticed that the first 2 LoTR games didn't have much re-playability since there weren't too many new things to get each time.

Ya, rent is better because once you finish it you'll probably toss it into your game shelves. few years later when you look at your mountains of old games you'll tell yourself " what to do with all those game? "

[/QUOTE]Thats kinda what I was wondering about, but then when I had it rented and I got stuck on the levels, I kept going back to the level with Gandalf when he sorta invades Sarumans place and helps the ents just because I loved playing him so much...I think I might have to figure this one out by eenie meenie minie moe [img]tongue.gif[/img]
