This game is realy awsome and has a dynasty warriors type feel to it without chineese names.It realy puts you right into the action with Aragorn, Legolas, and Gimli. Ihas TONS of features to try and make the gameplay longer but it didnt work. This game was fun until I beet it after a few days and there is no free mode so you can just go and kill orcs.
Gameplay: 8
Length: 6
Graphics: 8
Sound:8
Replay value: 6

Finally, a good game to go along with the "Lord of the Rings" movies. In this game, you can be Gimli, Legolas, or Aragorn, and you fight your way through various scenes from the first two movies. Each character has his own unique fighting style, and each can earn experience and upgrades as you progress.
The graphics in this game are absolutely beautiful. The fighting is very realistic, and the characters are surprisingly detailed--no stiff-moving polygons here. There are many short clips from the movies. Overall, the appearance is very nice.
The gameplay is also great. Yes, 95% of this game is just punching the buttons and killing stuff. But it's fun. And there are many different combos your characters can learn which are actually kind of difficult to execute. You are rated with each kill based on your style and use of parries, thrusts, blocks, and combinations. It's easy to kill stuff, but very hard to do it elegantly and get the perfect score.
The downside to this game is that it's very short--you can beat it in one night. Still, though, even once you've passed the game you can go back with different characters and, when that's done, you can always try to improve your rating on each level. I've been through the game many times, and still I'm entertained.
If you've been looking for the perfect beat-'em-up fighting game, look no further. And, if you're a LOTR fan (like me) you won't be disappointed. Get this game. It's worth it.
The Two Towers was Worth The Wait

Well after returning the FellowShip of the Ring (Not that it was a bad game, I reccomd it for the youngings) The two towers has somw real meat on it. Not only do you get to play the more intresting scenes in LOTR, but you get the play the Prologe as the King trying to fight Saurman. How sweet is that? Two Towers tries to act like a action/rpg. After you complete a level of hacking and slashing orcs and ringwraiths, you get to increase your characters level, and buy new combo attacks and weapons. In this game you get to play three of the nine fellowship. Aragron, Glimi and Leagios. It's a lot better than Fellowship for PS2 and XBOX where Frodo and Sam Heard pigs and go on other stupid fetch quests before you get to play as the Gandalf The Gray. Fellowship does make sense for little ones who might enjoy and get into the LOTR Series (Kids between 8-11). As for the older ones and you Die hard fans out there I say buy Two Towers. And as a extra bonus you get to watch actual scenes from the upcomming movie. It doesn't get better than that.
good game

this game is top marks. there is really only 1 flaw i see. that would be that it is to short.you go thourgh 13 lvls hacking and slashing at really alomst anything. great for LOTR fans or those people who just like sword play.THIS IS 1 OF THE BEST GAMES I HAVE EVER PLAYED!IT IS A LITTLE EDUCATOINAL BECAUSE YOU HAVE TO READ SOME WORDS AND YOU HAVE TO REMEMBER THE COMBOS.

this game is awsome except for one thing, the enemy. they are really stupid. they aren't agressive and they don't attack all at once, it is one by one. other wise, its awsome. there are coll moves and you can purchase new moves and weapons.
This game totally ROCKS!!!

This game rocks! I was little skeptical at first, but when I played it, it was awesome. The graphics are excellent. I definitely recommend it for any gamer. Not just LOTR fans.
I hate it!

It is not PC Playable! But it is fun to play. It is stupid that people are making XBox games and gamecube games and not PC!
Darkness has fallen over Middle-earth...

This video game simply is the best game I've seen in years. Great gamplay, great graphics, great music, all in one package. The game has a music from the first movie, which is by the way, preety cool. The game features both the first and second movie. (...) For your Lord of the Rings book/movie fan out there this is just the right gift.

This game is awsome. It is so cool. The graphics are awsome even when you have up to something like 20 orcs swarming around you. I am a huge LOTR fan so I absolutely had to get this game. I suggest that you get this game because by far it is the best game you can get.
