I hope everyone is enjoying their presents. Now I have got to go home and work off all those cookies!

See you next year! And may you be of great cheer!

With the advent of Mines of Moria, raised level cap, new traits, and other goodies, LOTROinfo is hard at work updating our content to match.

Be on the look out for the new and improved class guides coming soon, as well as a handy new application that Moria delvers should look forward too.

Gamespy has offered a rather glowing review of LotRO's new expansion. I think the following paragraph sums up much of it for me!

LotRO has spent the last year and a half becoming one of the best (if not the biggest) MMOs on the market by focusing relentlessly on what it's good at: PvE content, small-group, casual and solo-friendly questing that makes content created for masses of players feel intimate and personal. The culmination of this process is the release of Mines of Moria, an absolutely brilliant expansion pack that takes everything the development team has learned and crafts it into a sublime MMO experience.

Sublime. Dead-on. Read the whole review HERE.
