Lord of the Rings Online is celebrating its first anniversary - and the launch of its latest free content update, Book 13: Doom of the Last-king - with a chance to win 11 special edition copies of the game, one of which comes with a lifetime subscription to the splendid, Tolkien-licensed massively multiplayer fantasy RPG.

Eurogamer MMO and Codemasters Online Gaming have teamed up to offer one Exclusive Collector's Edition and 10 Gold Editions to Eurogamer readers.

The Gold Edition: smooth. And the Exclusive Collector's Edition: weighty.

The Exclusive Collector's Edition - which is no longer available in the shops - is individually numbered and comes with a lifetime subscription to the game, guaranteed by certificate. The box also contains the game DVD, a hardback manual, a 7-day buddy code, an exclusive mithril figurine, a special in-game item, a parchment map of Angmar, and a special edition Making Of DVD. It retailed at GBP 150 when you could buy it - which, as we said, you can't anymore.

The Gold Edition, which goes for GBP 50 in the shops, comes with four exclusive in-game items and 45 days' free play time. You'll also get a unique horse mount when you get to level 25, and some customisation items for your home in Middle-earth. And it comes in a metal box with a really pleasing finish to it, we can report from first-hand experience.

We think Lord of the Rings Online is great, and wish it a very happy birthday. You can download it and try it for free at www.trylotro.com if you don't believe us.
