I loved this game. I was responsible for discovering several popular out-of-bound glitches, with my most cherished accomplishment being at the black gate. Spam a move that pushes you forward (easiest with Legolas's shield surf or a warrior rush, with you needing to be attacked to glitch in if other class). You want to press your character's body into the pointed metal triangles just beside the gate in the nearby rockside.

I remember running all the way through both campaigns in one night with my friends back in the day. Good memories.

I already wonder waht this christmass will bring! I can't tell how many afternoons we waste with this game, so much fun with friends. I remember sniping my buddies from across the map using troll throws. And yes, it was painfull seeing you play.

Love how he was like, this is hard, and wasn't using any of his abilities in the first level

That thumbnail is a masterpiece

[@tygoneenogyt570]

I have been wanting this to be backwards compatible for so long. Thank you for bringing some attention to this wonderful relic!

Having just played MW2 again a few weeks ago, this reference was funny as hell.

[@ethanreed1841]

As a Conquest veteran, glad this has been acknowledged

[@akubash6742]

Thanks for ruploading this Video, for a long time I believed, that this Game would not exist and it was all a fever dream I had.

I LOVED this game. I remember playing it when I was very little. Never knew how to do the multiplayer options, thus never could play so. However I had great fun playing with the AI. About a year ago, I revisited the game and completed both Good and Evil campaigns. 10/10

This game legit is one of my favorite and most played games of all time: it was my friend groups go to local multiplayer game.

[@ConMan1504]

It's not forgotten! I loved this game throughout my whole childhood. I would do anything to get this game again

[@GiulianoM14]

I adored this game when I was younger.

3:50 knowing the lore of Balrogs that actually is a fair rematch.

[@nathanielwowchuk6880]

I remember the multiplayer beta being one of the top 5 gaming experiences ive ever had

[@Galimeer5]

I love this game. It has some serious balancing issues, but it's still fun.

[@zcritten]

I need part 2 with the evil campaign too purely because there will be like 2 heroes in the evil campaign and that's it

[@Matt15199]

I wouldn't mind a remake or remaster of this but only have single player, as a single player it was awesome.

[@shadows_star]

It'd need to have multi-player. Couch-split screen. All of my fond memories were my siblings and I goofing off. It wouldn't be the same singleplayer alone.

[@antonmelles7419]

There is going to be one actually. Lord of the rings: Congquest reimagined. Its a fan made game and will be free to download once its done..it has a website and discord server with updates on the progress

[@xaysay162]

This was literally the only game my dog ever decided to chew on and I will never forgive him for it.

[@oldworldpatriot8920]

Nothings funnier than playing as Sauron in hobbiton and dying after getting carried off by one of the eagles,he just disappears into the sky with the bird 😂
