Ever since its inception, the LOTRO: Shadows of Angmar has been a big hit. When Turbine, Incorporated released the game in April of 2007 they did not expect so many people to take flight to the game, nor did they expect it to be as popular as it is right now. Nevertheless, The LOTRO: Shadows of Angmar is a big hit in the world of the online massive-multiplayer role-playing games and offers many excitement to those who are just getting used to role-playing games. One huge advantage that The LOTRO has over other role-playing games, though, is that the movie and books that were released previously to this game's inception helped with people's and player's knowledge of the game so they already knew a bit about the game before actually playing. There are many more fans of The LOTRO than are fans of other role-playing games, like World of Warcraft or Everquest. The LOTRO has attracted a following of excited players all over the world that can't wait to conquer the game and experience the updates that Turbine, Inc., will have for them in June of 2007.

If you are already playing the game, though, you know how hard it may be to keep up with the rumors and the hype that may be going on inside and outside of the game. There are many resources available to players on the internet but only a few of them have been reliable so as to not lead the players of The LOTRO game astray.

Lord of the Rings: Shadows of Angmar official website

This website can be found at www.lotro.com and is the official LOTRO game website that gives players the lowdown on what's happening inside and outside of the game. It includes resources for beginners of the LOTRO, as well as includes many forums and chat sessions so that players can communicate with one another outside of the game. This website also includes a section called Points-of-Interest and contains articles that not only include pictures from scenes of The LOTRO, but also discusses strategies for those already playing the game.

My MMO Shop

Another website that is of interest to LOTRO gamers is the www.MyMMOShop.com website that they have placed on the World Wide Web for obsessed players of The LOTRO. This website not only includes secrets that show how to play the game but also includes a Library of Guides so that players can know more of how to plan their strategy while playing the game. For example, there is a Crafting info section, economy section, as well as a Tools section that explains how to use this part of the game.

Of course it goes without saying that there are many other websites for The LOTRO, but these are only two of the most trustworthy sites that players should stand by.
