  • "5 years from now they will make an mmo like that"..Nope..Still waiting.

  • 188 episodes of noobtoob left to go. My friends a dick, he got me addicted to magic the gathering on my ps3.

  • lotro is free to play now so u guys should play it

  • i luv those lame intros :D

  • damn.... it has been 3 years since I have been watching noobtoob... I feel old now XD

    This will always be a great show, and even after three years, your shows feel like good wine. They just age better with more time :D

    YOW!

  • you guys are not focusing on lord of the rings online... you guys are just japping about wow... just get the title right.

  • guys, in LOTRO there is a setting for it... called Auto-move to target. im trying to see a few reviews before i go back to LOTRO and its frustrating because 90% of them that ive seen have been negative... and only because the reviewer has not explored through the settings menu.

  • ...wow copied pretty much everything about quests from the other game, i forgot what it was called, like dragon... something.

  • hmm, after playing wow for like 2 years and leveling 5 80s and a hell of a lot of alts >.> its soooo boring, so i was plan on picking this game up, not quite sure now though =/

  • I like how they talk like WoW invented quests.

  • how is it that a couple gamer nerds can so unsell the whole genre

  • i think they missed the whole thing with WoW its all about getting to the end game content asap and having the best gear wow is a chest beating contest basically all bragging rights it was competitive which is why its popular

  • Really interesting :), i used to be a wow fan like you guys, and i gave lotro a try, now ive been playing for 2 years, and personally i like lotro more now due to graphics and storyline, sorry to hear you only got to lvl 9, those lvls suck lol :D

  • they both are gay

  • Aww, I love the internet. Where else would I find charming individuals like yourself?

  • in highschool

  • You guys need to check out Aion!! Its drops in a about 2 weeks but I've been playing the beta & its awesome!!

  • See the thing is...Blizzard COULD afford good content...BUT they half ass it, and dont, play the new wow games before talking aobut it, BC was very crappy honestly. And it isnt smart to compare games to wow and say it has things from wow being as wow didnt pioneer everything it has. So, go figure.

  • it was a beautiful game. I disagree with them about the graphics not being as good. The only thing I didn't like about LOTRO was the insane amount of travel time.

  • you should maybe play more than a short demo before reviewing it, since you've clearly played more WoW than Lotro

  • please don't say the graphic is better in WoW! and don't come with this crap when you are level 8!!! try getting to lvl 40, and you'll forget WoW

  • ok i fucking love the consistency guys seriously, i cant tell a differance between this and EP. 151 (besides background) yow!@!

  • Oh shut the fuck up wow fan boys

  • graphics are not better than wows? what, the, hellllllllllllllll

  • I agree with some of the things you mentioned about LOTRO, but i imagine it's quite difficult to render an entirely new form of MMO without using some of the same features WoW brought forth. I mean, i'm quite certain WoW developers didn't come up with the idea of Orcs and elves either and i definately say that LOTR lore is MUCH better than Warcraft's (i have played strategy games of Warcraft). Turbine has brought forth new things like Legendary weapons and they have more expansions to come.

  • Tobin you are so fine *drools*

  • Aww, thanks!

  • You will be sorely missed, the homophobic asshole demographic is severely underrepresented in our viewership.

  • die please

  • dude.. you get to level 10 in like an hour or two.. its easy as hell lol xD.

    I do however prefere this game to WoW.

  • lotro is a lot better after mines of moria. i played wow a lot but i liked playing togheter with aragorn and gandalf and such. and the fact you can have an own house to customise is relly cool. and the best thing is that main line quests go in a private instance with party where they unfold story as speech not a big text log

  • Monkey island 3 is the best,.. its in high resolution sprites its fun and funniest Monkey island ever,.. there are some hard/strange puzles,.. but you laugh your arse of when you solve them,.. the game isfunny from start to finish,..

  • Does this video really need to be almost 57 minutes long?

  • Yes, otherwise all of our words wouldn't fit.

  • <3

    <3

    <3

  • ... WoW is completely overrated guys.  Yes it is a good game for a bit, but new things must be given a try. I suggest trying Mabinogi from Nexon. Not all like WoW, and sadly a lot of games are trying to mimic WoW >.> Like the LotR game here, and then there is Perfect World, and a ton more, they all mimic WoW. Other things need to be found for people who don't like WoW.

  • Nothing is trying to mimic WoW, but you're probably 13 so you've never heard of MMORPGs before WoW

  • And you are probably a small-minded nerd for WoW that just rages people who think anything otherwise. And I'm not talking about anything before WoW, I'm talking about a lot of recent or fairly recent MMORPGs that have come. They are too much like WoW, just like these guys are saying.

    BTW, I'm 18... so ya. Gj with ur fail.

  • Wrong faggot, I'm a huge minded nerd for anything online and i rage at retards who think stupid thoughts. You're trying to say that all recent MMORPGs copy World of Warcraft but you're just a dumb shithead who doesn't realise all MMORPGs have a similar style, companies don't wake up in the morning and say "ANOTHER WOWCLONE COMING RIGHT UP SIR!". SO, shut the fuck up failtard and try again.

  • :O ROFL you made my day with your raging. You obviously like to read only what you want. I said that most recent games liked to mimic WoW, not all.

    ... Then again I should stop now before I fall on the floor again from laughter. Your seriously making an argument online, so ... you must have some things to work on. I'll leave you be before you blow a fuse over something as small as my comments. Good luck growing a bit more mature there buddy.

  • Raging? What are you, retarded? You obviously didn't read what I put, seeing as you've just proved you're a retard. No games mimic WoW, ever or at all, they are just following the style that ALL MMORPG's have.

    Obviously you're not one to talk about maturity because you're a dumbfuck child. Come back when you can read properly, infact don't come back if you think recent MMO's try and mimic WoW because you should probably re-re-re-read this you dumbfuck.

  • Jesus christ.

  • Actually, a lot of games do mimic WoW now-a-days... and it doesn't mean Grand is 13 XD

  • They mimic MMORPG's in general, it's the STYLE of the MMORPG's that make them all the same, they don't specifically say "OH LETS MAKE A WOW CLONE LOLROFL"

  • It took them a week to get to level 10?

    Seriously?

  • Whaat lol

    I just started over yesterday and got to lvl 18 in eight hours of slacker style playing

  • these Two are fucking stupid...

  • these 2 are retarded right?

  • totaly...

  • yeahh i just find the xbox controller too cumbersome they improved it ,

    but soo did sony with theres its lighter smaller fits in the hand better ,

    An sonys onlines free =) ,

    aha no hate to xbox fans tho ,

    cause i look like a compleat idiot when it try to play it ,

    ive just been a sony guy forever.

    ne ways ,

    Keep doin your Show guys

  • Also ,

    x box controlers are Terrrible in comparison to ps3

  • lol...

  • Dunno, I really don't like lower shoulder buttons on my PS3 controller.

  • Anarchy online has a nice quest system preaty variant if i recal

  • Comment removed

  • Yuzo is pretty hot, rawr

  • Are they both gay?

  • you're gay, loltard

  • They don't know what they're talking about, and they couldn't get to level 10 in 7 days. Even a GIRL can do better than that.

  • lol, insulting noobtoob just gives them some giggles when they read them

  • Aww, you're homophobic AND sexist. That's adorable.

  • and, ofcourse, i am an LOTRO fan, but, i also play WoW, and i think they are both great games! but i just prefer Lotro, because im a huge Tolkien fan, so, it is just my personal opinion.

  • Geez, "They have the exact same things!, Glowing rings instead of question marks, auction houses, trading skills!" what did you want them to do, dancing pink elephants instead of question marks, quick-e-marts instead of auction houses, majors instead of trading skills? and for the monster part, come on, it is PvP, ofcourse you cant go anywhere else with a monster.

  • of course they can't do anything else,but why would you make another mmorpg ?

  • quality editing tobin!

  • HAHAH !!! Used more than 10 days to lvl. to 10 wtf?! NOOBS

  • Yes :) thanks for the great comment

  • You want an MMO where you do influence the world try Warhammer Online: Ago of Reckoning.

  • where can i find that noob toob thing that they where talking about? i want to tell somone how to beat a game while there playing it lol

  • lotro rules wow stinks...

  • you cant say that exactly...

    MGS FTW!

  • wow beats lord of the rings xD

  • your right if you heard there reveiw

  • The MMO he wants used to be star wars galaxies . . . now its gone

  • R.I.P. Galaxies

    That game was the shit till that fucking GAY update.

    Saddest story in Video Game history

  • Combat Upgrade made me quit a week later.

  • Actually Warcraft has a good amount of back story to it. Most of it is from Warcraft 3, though. I do agree that lord of the rings has more. And there are some points in wow where an area is changed after doing a quest, but it is instanced so that players who haven't done the quest yet can't see what you can.

  • Why do i feel like i just spent 56:53, min of my live, on watching this, for no reason at all

  • Is that because u fail at wow??

  • So i didnt know you guys had takled about Lord of the rings on your past episodes. at first when i saw this your review seemed vary nooby to me. but after watch some older episod i can understnd why you didnt want to get in to another mmo tobin and thats exactly why i didnt get into wow cuz i didnt want to get sucked in to it. so i can respact that. but i still think you didnt do the game any justice. iv been played and i think its realy good but thats just me

  • THIS IS THE LONGEST VID EVER

  • Hi its me again. I just wanted to point out somthing. not that it will do much now but in the options their is a setting where you can set it to atomaticly move to attacing atrget or somthign like that. but this can be dangeres as well like lets say you target is on the other side of a poisonis river and you have that setting on you are going to walk right into the river and die. iv seen it happen. anyway i just wanted to point that out

  • I was expecting the same thing of the monster play in LOTRO. There are monsters not controlled by players though, but not of the types you can be so you know whether they are human or not.

  • I love that you call a video game review podcast "opinionated".

    OPINIONS! THE GALL!

  • Oh manI'm sorry. Was drunk and i wrote more that i should.

    The talk is quite sympathetic but, a proper review has nothing to do with opinions ;)

    Reviewing means you tell us what the game is not how do you like it.

  • That's where we're different than most "professional" gaming press. We just talk about how we felt playing the game and what about the game we liked or hated. Think of our show like talking to another friend about a game -- they're not going to "review" it, but tell you their opinion.

    It takes a bit getting used to, but some people find it useful.

  • I dont think you guys gave Lord of the Rings online any justice. First off you only played for a like a week. you cant get a true feel of a game in that amount of time. Their are so many more quests then you can posibly imagin. Killing quests colecting quests, kill and collect quests, expleration, Fellowship quests and many more. I cant say much about WoW excepte that it looks realy cartoony. Not only are there quets but there are Deeds you can do for traits that instrese your stats

  • (sry for the repose, ran out of room) and last mut defetly no least they are coming out with the first expanction. The Mines of Moria. that will increse the lvl cap form lvl 50-lvl 60 add two new classes, and add a legindary system where you can cusomize and lvl your vary own sword or axe like Frodos Sting. I think you guys need ot revise this and give this game a proper review before you disard it so lightly

  • haha he drinks pinky out! :P awesome

  • holy crap i did not relize this video was almost an hour long

  • The fading light in the back window is peacefull...

  • lol nice

  • the vid is to long

  • then dont fucking watch it. and the longer the video the better

  • I'm a big lotr "fanatic" and I still thought the game was very disappointing. Definitely inferior to WoW, but not terrible either..

  • Nothing like fan-boys who assume their opinion is fact. I suppose you guys have never heard of any of the MMORPG games that came before WoW which it copied off of? Ultima online and Everquest seem like a few good examples.

  • Nothing like people who think that anyone who disagrees with them is a fanboy.

  • i love wow~!

  • Comment removed

  • stfu

  • Why should i? I'am just dispointed of the review but i never unsubscribed ;) NoobToob for the win and they are just talking about their experience, which is cool and how it should be. I shouldn't be arguing about there because TASTE is a thing you can never ever argue about.

  • fuck i finished 11 minutes of it and i saw the end was 56 min wat do u guys possibly do for another 40 minutes? this episode is supose to be about lotro not wow so stop comparing it to wow. ya they copied alot of stuff from wow but they added alot from thereselvs too. something about it makes it more fun than wow (my opinion).

  • True

  • play the whole fucking game before you review it and get a better fucking comp

  • We're not going to play the whole game if it's not good.

  • then how the fuck would you know if it was good or not? get a better comp then youd see

  • If you bite into a rotten apple, you don't have to eat the whole thing to know it's bad.

  • I at some point agree because the quests go to more combat in higher levels and more you level game gets better and better. NooBToob are saying what they experienced which is right to do. Nothing wrong about it. I am dispointed because they kept comparing it with WoW. FOR ALL THE PPL WHO ARE HAVING TROUBLE CHOOSING MMO BETWEEN WoW and LOTRO, don't listen NoobToob experience, you have to try it out yourselves! I have played WoW and LOTRO. I left WoW for LOTRO and now i think LOTRO is much better.

  • Not everyone who buys an Xbox is a dick...

  • all mmos r the same

  • rofl never ever seen people as stupid as u guys. completely over the top social skills. How the fuck are u ment to review a game when u have only played up to level 7? You dont even get into the meat of the game until level 15... Im taling about Lotro, and its nothing like WoW. Oh and wtf pc are u running it on? Graphics in LOTRO are 100 times better than WoW. Get a real job and stop posting 1 hour long dire comical reviews on games you have no clue about.

  • taling..?

    you're taling about Lord of the shite online?

    oh riiigghhhtt you're talking about...oh i get it now..

  • Which Monkey Island was it where you could fight with insults? I loved that game so much; I used to play it a long time ago. Unfortanately, my mother threw it away. :(

    I'd like to play it again definitely.

  • That was the very first monkey island that you could fight with insults, it was awesome.

  • Still got it! havnt played in 5 years or so, remember it taking me a week to find headlice needed to go on. but nothing beats that game (KILLING YOURSELF FOR LIFE INSURANCE FTW!!!)

  • Lol, yah. Monkey island was definitely a bad-ass game. I havn't played in a couple of years also though. When I had gotten a newer computer, Monkey Island wouldn't work on it, and the old computer i used to play it was broken, and so therefore it ended up in the trash.

  • And then five minutes after that, you realize that you can't stop watching him because he's just so damn sexy.

  • Funny as hell and half drunk

  • Ownt!

  • Wow ur a stupid fuck WoW has a whole bunch of fucking Lore in it its not made up u fucking idiot L2P Warcraft 3 and 2 1

  • By the way Tobin, the other game was Gradius if I'm not mistaken. Only, it was a bit in reverse. Any time you typed the code in, your ship blew up. The devs thought it was funny.... ha ha.

  • yap yap yap!!!!

  • dude. I love you guys. But you hasve totally misuderstood the entire entity off WoW. For one you did not inculde what the entire game is based on its based on years and years of fiction. I love LOTRO its amazing. Also the reason it tells you your not facing a target is because whats the point in it doing it for you. You should be able to do everything your paying so why not :). Thanks for the video but thats my own opinion each to the own but i love you guys

  • just few things about lotro i have played wow for 2 years had 2 70's and stuff and when i tryed lotro it looked stupid but after lvl 10 is soooooo fun instances and all kind of things you shoud tryed it again cuz you ger 14 days and i dont understand how did you manage get only lvl 7 when i get 17 in 2 days

  • I'm sorry, I still love Monkey Island! Oh, and Grim Fandango is amazing. Rock on, adventure games.

  • Hell yeah. Grim Fandango is one of my favorite games ever.

  • i dont get the 1 leg in the morn 2 legs in the noon andd 3 legs in afternoon or what ever plez resopond!

  • It's a human. :)

  • oh come on plz. XD plz expln the meaning!

  • Okay, I'll give you a hint. In the evening means when you're old. ANd if you use a cane, then you have three legs!

  • OH! LOL! Now i get it! sheesh now i feel like an idot! but wait what about the 1 leg....

  • err... it's 4 legs in the morning? ie, crawling as a baby.

    This was the sphinx's riddle.

  • Something i think you guys are missing is that WoW is very far from original so it's not like Lotro is stealing from WoW. WoW stole ALOT. I think game developers know what makes an MMO fun and what people are use to. Of course things are going to be simliar.

  • Nice show...but...HOW IN THE BLODDY HELL DID YOU PUTTED ABOUT HOUR LONG VIDEO?:-O:-O

  • Oh shit this video was added on my birthday

  • this is so amazing! you should be on tv! great show, keep making them.

  • Thanks! You guys keep watching, we'll keep making them! :)

  • Heh, you think we're WoW fanboys.  That's cute.

  • i like this Guys..! :Pd

  • just found this video and its really coo. I'm going to check out the other videos :)

  • Thanks!  Enjoy. :)

  • Awesome shirt!

  • THIS KICK ASS.

  • Thanks for watching!

  • i love this show :D ive subscribed to it on itunes and everything ^_____^

  • noobtoob is so great by the way I found out about it cuzz sonik dude had his review a response to noobtoob

  • Awesome! Thanks for finding us.

  • roflmao! im lvl 20 in less then 2 days without trying XD the games not like WoW play it further before you judge it lol the graphics kick ass go buy a new graphics card :P THIS GAME PWNS WoW! (yes ive played WoW)

  • Retards they didnt even mention the deed system which pwns WOW

  • The Story is what sets Lotro apart from all the others, I have played Wow and I like lotro tons better, I have friends who play wow and I let them play for a bit, at first they said "this is WOW in a nutshell" then after level 8 (in a few hours) they were like "hey this game is good, I might get it"

  • Age Of Conan should be 100% better then any MMORPG's thats ever been published..

  • wow punk me down for typing skills? your the man wow sucks and u suck! joob

  • lol that bloke is a noob lvl 7 in a week!... i did that in like 2 days :)

  • but remember they have more than just this game to review at the same time ^___^

  • LOTR brings in the fans of Tolkien. I think you under estimate the desire of many like me to actually walk the areas we read about so many years ago. WOW has no history. TOLKIEN RULES.

  • well i quit wow for lotro because on wow the fighting is shoddy its to slow it takes to long to attack and the moves i mean they hardly move whereas on lotro your character will jump take a step back move his feet when he/she strikes. Though the mages on wow are alot beeter desinged and the spells are much cooler than the ones on lotro

  • And you brandyjade are a blatent moron without the abitly to Type words fully,Tell me,Do you log onto youtube to slag off every video you dont like? if you dont like it,dont watch it,and for the record you are a "joob"

  • lmao u 2 are squids it takes 3 hrs to get to lvl 10 u dident even play the game how can u rate this game on 1 hr of play u suck buy better pcs its blows wow away lotro is a fresh breath of air...i think there going to spank off to wow after this..u 2 are joobs

  • does anyone know how i can get a game card for my lotro client i downloaded?

  • i mean account key so i can play

  • these guys like wow.

  • Lol that noob said the graphics not as good as WoW hahah hilarious... i mean WoW square graphics? wtf

  • yea sounds like wow fan boy

  • How high level can you get to in LOTRO?

  • level 50

  • lol i got 2 level 7 in about 4 hours....he couldnt get to that in 1 week lmao

  • You don't get "popin" if you max out the graphics settings. As far as quests.. EVERY online game marks quest characters... Also, it doesn't take long to get to level 10 if you do quests. I'm on day 4 and am level 15, and I don't play more then 4 hours a day. If they aren't even level 10, then they haven't done any of the storyline quests, which, to me, is the best part of the game. I give this review two thumbs down.

  • wow is better

  • Lvl Cap in LotRO is 50 and in WoW its 70, so obviously it will take longer to get to lvl 10, but if you like teh game its pretty easy. I have a lvl 30 elven hunter in LotRO and lvl 60 NE Hunter in WoW. Lol. I WANT THE F-ING Character to move when I 2x click on it!!! hahah

  • I think if you guys had more time to play youd enjoy it more. I myself like the story content, and quest lines more than wow. But then again i played wow for over 2 years, i just cant take the grind anymore. Lord of the rings is my sweet release, sorry to say but wow has seen the last of me.

  • Hi guys, im anouther UK guy, and just find you in here today. Just like to say thanks so much for you doing this for us and love your attidude to the games you chat about and that your happy to chat about any game from any machine out there and it is the game that is the most important ^.^

    Cheers and cant wait for the next show, Roman

  • Yeah tobin, sweet shirt!  Aegis Wing for free, IN AMERICA! Not released at all in other regions including Europe.

  • It's four legs in the morning.

    -Zen_Monk

  • yeah yeah, I know. I screwed up the riddle halfway through and then just kept on going since we already started recording. gotta love podcasting! :)
