LOTRO Book 11: More Cowbell

Sure, Turbine and Codemasters' 3rd major free content patch for Lord of the Rings Online: Shadows of Angmar introduces over 100 new quests, your first glimpse of Gollum, two new areas, Amarthiel's ring of power, a raid against a Balrog, and player housing. That's all well and good, but the single most important aspect of the new update, due out on October 25th, is to the music system, my favorite aspect of the entire game. Three new instruments are being introduced with the update, including the bagpipes and god's very voice on earth - the cowbell. Finally all of Middle Earth can be graced by the most complete version of my masterpiece, "Don't Fear The Ringwraith." Hit the jump for info on that other crap.

Eventually, the decision was made to pull the entire marriage option all together. More »

Latest by Brinstar: Just because it's not officially sanctioned by Turbine doesn't mean that role-playing and in-game marriage or in-game relationships between anyone -- gay or straight or whatever -- will not occur. more »

Week in Games: Pokemon Diamond/Pearl Edition

While the rest of the world is freaking out over Pokemon Diamond and Pearl, I'll be sitting in my living room trying to plow through the long list of games I need to finish. While I'm doing that, you can pass some time by looking at the highlights of this week's new releases. Flynn De Marco More »
