This review is for the return of the king. I have found this imformation from the game maker's themselves in a chatroom. This game has no definite due date but so far it is in October 2003. You can play as Gandalf, Aragorn, Legolas, Gimli, Frodo, Sam,and you can unlock 2-4 hidden characters. The smallest level is at least 2 times the size of the biggest Two Towers level. Also, unlike the Two Towers, it is 2 player, so you can play with a friend. And, you just don't play the parts from the Return of the King, but parts from the fellowship and the two towers. There are more enemies, such as mumakil(the giant elephants from the two towers movie), Haradrim(wicked men from the South),the Army of the dead, and mountain trolls instead of cave trolls. There will still be Uruk'hai and orcs but no goblins. Also, the enemies will be much smarter then the Two Towers. Lastly, expect everything from the Two Towers video game and more....

The Return of The King

"The battle of Helm's Deep is over....the battle for Middle-Earth is about to begin..." The video game "The Two Towers" leaves us on such a note. The Return of the King, will be, no doubt in my mind, will be the most ground-breaking video game anyone has seen. The Two Towers was unbelievably on the money for what a movie-made-into-a-game should be like. A hack and slash game, it did not only have realistic and believable situations but the characters and their moves were authentic and true to the movie. So what, do you ask, were the faults of this game? I'm sorry did I say faults in a plural sense. In my mind, there was only one fault to the game. Unexplorable environments. And guess what...The return of the king compensates for that. Wish granted. It also presents 3 new characters to the list: Gandalf, Frodo, and Sam. Such diversity in choices can lead two ways: Absolutely a superb game, or a weak spread "butter over to much bread" game. Hold the toast, thank you very much....because the game is not going to be a weak undeveloped game! The Return of The King will also present co-op play which will make the adventure so real and authentic to the book (especially if you have friends are named Frodo and Sam!) All in all, this will be the game that we will play over and over and over again and still not get sick of the adventure!

Get it

I loved the Two Towers for ps2 so this one should be even better. I heard that there is going to be multiplayer on Return of the King so u can have two players playing on one mission. I am going to buy this game right away.

A Promising Game

This videogame coming out this holiday season should be worth the money, since you get to play as Aragorn and Gimli, along with new playable characters such as Gandalf, Pippin, Frodo, and Sam in the final struggle for Middle-Earth. The two-player cooperative play sounds very exciting and enjoyable, as you can man siege engines, catapults, and other objects with your steadfast partner. Graphics are more defined than The Two Towers game, along with stunning levels from the siege of Minas Tirith to the Cracks of Doom. Foes include orcs and nazgul, as well as the terriyfying Witch-king, the abominable spider Shelob, and the Dark Lord Sauron himself. The Return of the King should be the perfect game for anyone.

Looks Incredible!!!

I was at Comic Con in San Diego in July, 2003 and actually got to play the game before its release!!! It is remarkable! I didn't think they could do better on the character renditions but they did. The faces look exactly like the actors and the backgrounds are so realistic. With the number of playable characters increased and the 2-player co-op mode, this looks to be better than the Two Towers game which I just love!!!

going to be better than the first game

I have been looking forward to buying this game the day I discovered it was in the making. The game has a lot more features than the first, and is looking very good at the moment. My review is based on information from PSM (Play Station Magazine) who has written several articles on the game and its new features. The first feature that caught my attention is more playable characters, like Gandalf;), and hidden characters, like Gollum. The other awesome addition to the game is the cooperative play! You can play with another person at the same time with different characters! Only two players will be aloud at the same time, but this is the number one thing the Two Towers was missing. The fighting system in the game will be similar, but this game is definatly worth getting.
P.S. I'm not 12 years old.

Can't wait !

This game is gonna be great! The gretest thing about it is that it has a co-op mode for 2 players. It also has new characters which is really cool. As soon as it comes out I'm buying it!

Best Game Ever!!! Better than Two Towers!!!

If you saw my previous interview, ignore it that was a joke. I did however pick up the guide today and saw the masterpeice inside. I'll give you a little bit of info. The first level is played by Gandelf ending the events in the Two Towers at Helms Deep. Then, you follow the events in The Return of the King. There is really not much I can tell you anymore. All I can say is get this game. IT'S GREAT!!!
