This game is AWSOME! It really gets you into the action. As Aragorn, Legolas, or Gimli, you can tear up Orcs, Uruk Hai, Cave Trolls, and much more, using swords, bows, axes, and throwing axes. You can play any level as Isildur once you beat Thornburg Courtyard and reach level 10 with any character. I got this info off my friends PS2. We beat the game a day after he got it.

It's just like playing a movie!

I have jealously played this game on a friends PS 2 and when I found out about the GC version I was really pleased. This is the closest any game has ever come to making you feel like you are "playing the movie".

good but wayyyyy too dark!!!!

and i don't mean "dark" by being violent i mean too dark as in it was completely black and the person i was fighting as ran into a something slashing and bashing and making sarcastistic remarks and then for some reason i got a game over.i slashed,crashed and smashed my way for about oh say 3 minutes!! then i was stabbed from behind because the guy was saying something like "i'll make soup out of you yet!!!". *sigh* oh well it was still fun at least i didn't see blood.

ABSOLUTLEY INCREDIBLE!!!!

This game is incredible!! The graphics are amazing and the levels are soooooooo much fun.. Here are my favorite charicters from like the most and don't like the most.

Legolas- The best person to play on the game. Hands down. He can get all sorts of arrows (including fire) and is very powerfull.
Aragorn- Amazing. Not as good as Legolas but close he can get very good power up moves and is pretty powerful.
Gimli- Ok. Not great but not lousy either, just ok. He isn't very fast, but he is pretty powerful. He gets ok power ups but not as good as any of the other charicters.

Not as good as expected

I played and successfully beat the PC version of The Fellowship and I was excited when I had the chance to play the Two Towers on GameCube. However, the game was worse than I expected. From the first 10 minutes of playing, I was confused and bored. It is hard to tell which character you are controlling especially in the opening sequences because there are so many NPCs floating around. The graphics are pretty bad for a Gamecube game and there is no strategy at all; simply fight and fight and chop. Do not buy this game; you will be sadly disappointed.

With a little more work perhaps...

The main problem with the Two Towers game is that it really feels incomplete and that it could have been SO much better...

Okay...The first time you play it can be fun, the strange camera modes are original and the graphics are pretty good...But the whole point of this game can be summed up in three words:

"Hack-and-Slash"

Much like the Gameboy version, (which is slightly better than the game console version) your quest is to kill as many orcs as you possibly can and collect as much points from those killings as possible so as to gain more stylish killing moves.
The game is also dismally short...There are only ten levels or something!!! And as soon as you finish the game and start again from the beginning, you are totally bored.

I've heard some people say that "Oh! This game is awesome! It has music from the movie!" Big deal...You know, people...Some games actually have music composed FOR THE GAME ITSELF!

Unfortunately, this attempt to bring as much of the Lord of The Rings movie into the game as possible is --to be blunt-- a big failure.

If you're looking for a way to immerse yourself into a movie universe, there are games like Enter The Matrix that succeed...The Two Towers game really doesn't.

VERY AWSOME !

Pfft, is my summary. They made this game in less than a month, and the rush job shows. The graphics are horrible, the gameplay was boring, the fighting was unrealistic, and as you battle through the stages you get to fight the grand toatle of FOUR DIFFERENT ENEMIES!!! ORCS, GOBLINS, TROLLS, AND URUK HAI!!!
Never mind that orcs, goblins and uruk hai all fight the same way. Sometimes, if you are lucky, you might fight TWO TROLLS AT ONCE!!! WOW!!! THAT MAKES THE GAME WORTHWILE, EH?
Now that we are past the unpleasant subject of the (Cough) enemy design, let me comment on the other "Features" of this game. The music for most of the game was just stolen soundtracks from LOTR, with the exeption of the water watcher music that was a single drum going boom-boom quietly in the distaince.
The game has around 3 battles that corraspond with the movie (Vaugely). The rest are fabricated crap that makes no sence. Gandalf went from edoras to find Eomer didnt he? Well now hes in some unnamed rohan village fighting orcs, and at the end of that he walks off alone (The makers were too cheap to afford horse animations.)

All in all, I rue the day I assumed anything with a popular name tacked on it would be good. (The Wind walker, for example). This game was heniously unrealistic, patheticly contrived and unspeakably poor, plodding on in it's leinar fasion.
The producers should hang their heads in shame.
