We've gotten word that the Thursday update of the Lord of the Rings Online (LOTRO) Alpha Player Journals is now up. Apparently, the guys over at LOTRO couldn't wait and decided to post the journals today.

Seems the Alpha players are pretty stoked about the game. Server stability, instructive quests, and sweet graphic animation and design are just some of the things they praise LOTRO for.

Check out the journals by clicking on the 'read' link below for the first impressions of LOTRO from members of their Alpha Program. Those who wanna sign up for the Beta Program will also find some info on that at the LOTRO website.

The LOTRO Alpha Player Journals will have its next update on Friday (unless the guys from LOTRO lose their patience again and release the update earlier), so watch out for that too.
