Hello.
Middle-Earth Online is an upcoming game being developed by Vivendi Universal Games. I hope this is of interest. For those of you that are interested, here are two links to use:

Yet another Massive Multiplayer Online RPG. If it was a game with single and multiplayer capabilities, I would be interested. There's no way I'm paying a monthly fee to play any game, and I doubt the development of this game is going to be much different in terms of gameplay vs. the popular MMORPGs that are currrently "successful".
I'd rather be part bull than a complete sheep.

Middle Earth is a no-brainer for MMORPGs. A built-in audience, augmented by the recent excellent movie series. My concern is that with all the MMORPGs popping up everywhere, the market will be saturated in two shakes of a lamb's tail.
My bigger question is this: I've been offered a Star Wars Galaxies beta slot. Should I take them up on it? I'd have to buy a cheap PC, and cut back on the D2 time.

Anybody remember that LotR MMORPG thing a while back? I think Gollum might actually start to ask for a ressurection in mount doom ;)
I sure as hell don't want to get myself into a game of leettalking clones of Aragorn and Legolas, thank you very much. The entire economy will be based upon duped rings of power, most likely. :) For the very same reason, I'm going to avoid StarWars Galaxies like the plague, because one Playerkilling ObiWan Kenobi is one too many.
Sorry, but unless I can find a solid guild with quality players, that value roleplaying over hack&slashing, I won't be touching any of such high audience games that have been built on classic settings/storylines. There are just too many asshats out there to ruin it all.
And you do not ask the cost...
