I think Hobbit is the only other game that is going to give you the immersion that LOTR does. But as others have mentioned, the code on JP is excellent. There are obvious modes you are going for, and then tons of different objectives to chase at the same time. Big difference between LOTR and JP is that JP is fuckin tough...if you take an uncontrolled shot you're gonna have a hell of a time getting it back under control. The game has combo flow, but not the same type of flow that LOTR has.
