LotR: The Third Age is a turn-based console RPG based on the Lord of the Rings trilogy. It's due for release on November 2nd, by EA Games.

I've seen alot of screenshots, videos, and information about this game, and it looks to be absolutely awesome! The LotR genre has needed an RPG for a long time, just as the RPG genre has needed a LotR game. :D

I'm really looking forward to this one... anyone else going to check it out? :D

This isn't an MMORPG - it's a single player RPG, similar to the Japanese RPG game style (like final Fantasy) for Gamecube, XBox, and PS2.

There's an MMORPG, Middle Earth Online, being made, however, it's not being made by EA, and it's based on the books. The Third Age is based upon the movies.
