In an exclusive interview with Gamerzines.com Adam Mersky, PR Manager of Turbine, has outlined why he thinks that the forthcoming pay to play update for Lord of the Rings Online is the biggest yet.

The castle dominates the forest landscape."The Lord of the Rings Online is committed to continuing free content updates and support. Siege of Mirkwood has so many new systems in it from Skirmishes to Legendary Item and combat system upgrades, along with a level cap increase, that this is really an expansion for the game." Explained Adam, who has defended the expansion against those who have argued that the new Book isn't that much bigger than their free updates.
