I'm a LOTRO player and an Xbox 360 owner, so this is quite exciting! The big question on my mind are about the integration (or lack thereof) that they plan between the platforms. While I doubt it will be the case, it would be amazing if PC and Xbox users could be on the same servers and even better if I could switch to Xbox 360 without losing my characters!
Controls will the other big question here. On the PC, LOTRO (and most MMO's) have pretty much everye key on the keyboard mapped to one command or another . . . I'm wondering how they can pull something like that off on the Xbox . . .
The dog would've seemed much more revolutionary if Prince of Persia hadn't come out a few months later. Elike was more interesting, more connected to the story, and drew a far greater emotional investment than Fable's four-legged-friend. She also had better animation and AI.
