The site has scooped this exclusive review of Lord of the Rings Online: Shadows of Angmar ahead of its online and print rivals, thanks to its 26 year heritage as Europe’s longest serving source of video games news and reviews.

Having launched as a magazine in 1981, Computer and Video Games (CVG) switched to the internet in 2004, and features a wealth of news, reviews and features updated daily, as well as the very best of Future’s UK games magazines, including Edge, PC Gamer and PC Zone.

John Houlihan Development Editor of www.computerandvideogames.com, said:

“Shadows of Angmar seems destined to become the next big MMORPG contender. The game has a compelling and utterly authentic game world based on the most popular fantasy universe of all-time. LOTRO presents a stunning and evocative world of Tolkien magic to explore.”

“Lord of the Rings: Shadows of Angmar is a worthy recipient of our very first CVG Elite award for games which score over 9/10 on review, placing it at the very pinnacle of its genre. A CVG Elite award is the mark of a true classic, rewarding gaming excellence and along with our CVG Most Wanted award, is designed to acknowledge the very best in gaming”

“As Europe’s longest-serving source of games news, reviews and previews we’ve got big plans to continue the development of CVG – now in its 26th year.”
