Lord Of The Rings: Aragon’s Quest is released in Europe today on PS3, PSP, Wii, DS and PS2. Which console is the odd one out? Yes it’s the 1080p HD, billion polygon shifting PS3. I mistakenly thought they had released a trailer for the PS2 version but the inclusion of a Move tutorial means this is a trailer for the PS3 version.
Check out that PS2 style ‘fire’ on Sauron’s sword at 0.25 and a special guest appearance from Shrek at 1.01.
Of course great graphics do not a great game make – but they kind of help when you release a trailer.

I thought the Move was meant to bring us Wii style games with PS3 graphics! Something went wrong somewhere….

Didn’t look so bad – 1:07 – Legolas (I think?) – if that’s meant to be Orlando Bloom, then the cold, dead eyes and complete lack of emotion combined with wooden movement look spot on.

This game was never meant to be released on the ps3. If you have lord of the rings movies on blu-ray there is some behind the scenes footage on this game and back then it was to be on the ps2 and wii no mention of move or ps3.
I really hope this is a one off and not going to be the start of sub-par wii games getting released as ‘move’ titles

This looks worse than most original Xbox games…

why don’t they just get bioware to make a LOTR game?

the graphics r perrty bad but i can see this game being really fun, but i dont think its for me, there hasnt been a good lotr game sincce return of the king, conquest was quite poor as well.
