Lord of the Rings Online

Lord of the Rings Online recently went free to play. It's a MMORPG like Wold of Warcraft, but set in the world of Lord of the Rings.

I don't really know how to describe it more. Of course, like every "free to play" MMORPG, you can play free but you'll hit ultimately a point where you're better of investing money if you value your time in the least.

edit: I think it's important to point out that this games installer uses Pando Networks client to download the actual game. That thing is bit of evil, as there's very little indication that it is actually installed nor that it is running all the time even after installation and using your bandwidth. Be sure to uninstall the Pando Networks thing after installing the game.

Also, seems like the game is free-to-play only in US. The European version will be free-to-play "this autumn" and right now has only two weeks' free trial.
