If I wind up picking up a copy of Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor, it will be because of these two men right here. Well, mostly.

The most savage Lord of the Rings game adds an additional layer of violence with its Rune System, a method of upgrading weapons and generating retailer-specific preorder bonuses.

Books are art, you know? Sometimes literally.

Memory is a fickle, faulty thing. The things we swear happened might've actually gone down completely differently, sometimes. It should be no surprise, then, that sometimes we might remember famous lines from movies a tad differently from what they actually are.

With Skyrim-lust whipping fantasy role-playing game fans into a frothy puddle, perhaps November 1 is the best possible time for Warner Bros. to release The Lord of the Rings: War in the North.

Here's a look at the upcoming Rise of Isengard expansion for The Lord of the Rings Online massively multiplayer online game.
