5 out of 5 stars Awesome   January 23, 2008
Laura L. Day (Rochester, NY United States)
I've played in both single-player and co-op modes. This game is awesome! Even after many, many hours of gameplay and level restarts, I still love doing battle. Gandalf was hardest to play in the single-player mode. My boyfriend and I just finished co-op mode. The only negative was that you can't jump between paths as in single-player mode. After completing the path of the king, you take the path of the wizard, you have to complete all those levels before taking the path of the hobbits. A walkthrough guide helps sometimes. Excellent challenges, graphics and upgrades provided many hours of hack 'n' slash entertainment.


4 out of 5 stars good game   November 4, 2007

good game, short, but extremely fun and will give enjoyment for long after you beat it


4 out of 5 stars A Challenging, but Fun Game   June 19, 2007
ultimatecritic (NY, NY)
This third installment in the Lord of the Rings series has a superior control system, and extremely fun missions, it is lacking, however, in one key aspect: it is impossible to skip cutscenes unless you have already seen them. Each cutscene has clips from the movie, which you will have undoubtedly seen if you are willing to shell out the money to pay for the game, so I don't see why you are forced to watch the cutscenes. In the game, you are able to play as any of the original nine members of the fellowship (except Faramir replaces Boromir), but Faramir, Merry, and Pippin are only unlockable once you complete the game. Each character is unique, and the way that each character does combinations looks slightly different, adding to the realism of the game. All in all, it's definitely worth getting, especially with Amazon's low price.


4 out of 5 stars A fun action game   April 4, 2007
M. Herzog (chicago)
While there are more characters to play then the two towers, they do not feel a whole lot different. Also, I still feel less like I'm in the movie but in certain scenes from the movie as the cutting is large and continunity is off. But it is fun, and I like the multiple players options. Recomended.


4 out of 5 stars Great Game to a Great Movie   March 29, 2007
The game is challenging yes, but beatable. I like buying new weapons and fighting the challenging characters. Co-Op is better and easier (Inless you play with your dad who is like not the best at video games and gets lost easily lol) but oh well it's good. Some parts are hard to figure out and it took us a while but we still beat it. Now along with other people we can't figure out the Smeagol round. Hard... heck yeah. But still I recomend it to anyone!
