Just got this today and have to say I very highly recommend it so far. At least to anyone who enjoys the Batman Arkham series of games.

This is a LOTR game set in the period between The Hobbit and LOTR and the action system is almost identical to the Arkham system. Both in fighting style and combo style, to also similarities between Batman's Detective Mode and Mordor's wraith mode. Given that the Arkham games are some of the best in recent years IMO adapting this works really well.

Also of interest is the Nemesis mode they've come up with. Without giving away the plot you can't really die, so I was killed by an Uruk which meant it became promoted to being a stronger Captain in Sauron's Army that I can come across again later on.

I'm still early in it but would recommend to anyone who enjoys the Arkham games and Lord of the Rings.
