i still play the old school LOTR game on my PS2 and wanted a similar experience on my 360 (better graphics, etc.) but this game is complete shit, and i mean even the old games for PS2 are better.
i rented it yesterday, and it's not that shitty. well of course its repetetive, but the large scale battles and the Trolls/Ents can ultimately kill this boredom, how can it not be fun to grapple enemies and manhandle them around the battlefield like small childs? (sorry for my english, i am from Greece)
If I wanted to reenact scenes from LotR I'd play the origional games, this is basically Battlefront 2 in LotR's format which I am perfectly OK with. I respect your opinion but I enjoy the game for it's real wartime effects like I enjoyed with Battlefront.
@wowwow180 Well I bought it thinking: Oh cool! A Lord of the Rings version of Battlefront!
But to be honest I had no idea what to expect. And to be honest more, I haven't actually played it. My computer isn't good enough for it. I've "played" it but everything is laggy and screwed up shaders and such. From what I could see it wasn't very fun but maybe I just need to experience it better?
You are right I should have rented it. Can you trade in PC games? I'm not sure. I guess I could sell it.
"our sappers are preparing a siege strike, but they need more time, hold your ground!....*3 seconds later*.....the sappers are ready, incoming!" the voice acting is terribad in this game laaaaawl, i guess im just used to mass effect and dragon age.
was hoping this would b an outstanding game but its not realy that heavy if u know wat i mean, if ur a fan u might like it but if u just like to play adventure games this would make 2 too excited but personaly i would give it a 6/10
hey man when i went up to gamestop i bought this game with my extra money and i think its a good game and its very fun but the problem for me is the EA server is always down so its hard to play online. but also helms deep was a much better mission then the one you displayed here. so i think that some locations are better then others and it is real far off from the movie.
nice video m8 but there is a diffence gandalfs lighting can go through more then 1 person at a time but normal mages have to hold it down sorry aabout spelling i is kinder a retard lol not really just cant spell that good again nice video
I kinda figured that they should at least have the button combinations for Boss Battles if you're playing a hero like in the Force Unleashed, that would have decreased the dull 'hack and slash' factor.
you're right.... When you play it for a while it's getting BORING!, than it's more a "hack and slash"-game. But lucky after all, there's a mutiplayer :P.
I'm hoping that Star Wars Battlefront III (3), will come out very fast! I'll buy it the moment it's released. (LOTRC = 6.5/10)
Dude i think its exactly like the movie as in the mines of moria mission there not talking about when the fellowship were there it is explained by the narrator that they come back to retake it...
a thaught that some of the comments were poor. i mean if the mines of moria level was like the film, then as soon as you were to die, thats the end of a hero, there would be about 3 levels in which you can be normal guys and it would suck. besides the good campaign aint even the best bit, try the rise of sauron for pure fun in a game. i mean the balrog owning hobbits, ye unrealistic but hilarious and fun!
the bridge is destroyed, the bridge that you see isnt the bridge that gandalf breaks, but when your playing in the actual level you can look out of the map and see the broken bridge. i dont know where the broken stairs are though where legolas has to jump.
i played this game and traded it in like 2 days after i bought it. seemed they didn't put a lot of effort into this game before they released it. but for anyone that liked the starwars battlefront games they'll enjoy this one.
hey man, nice vid was gonna buy it but u gave a truthful review and i kinda see where u were going with this lol and yh it looks the same all the time just differnt locations- u saved me money man thx xD and keep these but there good :)
they should make a real lord of the rings game like all 3 movies and the balrog battle on the bridge, helms deep a better battle for minas tirith, a game where you should only be main characters not just random people
Looks like a fucking disaster to me. A swedish game magazine that I like to follow gave it a 3/10 and called it brown and no variety at all, just press one button.
its by the same company as the battlefront but theyre worse, too bad the third one got cancelled and some new company is making it, it better be good.
You keep saying 'oh its not like in the game where are the other heroes?'
Well the answer is easy conquest is like a battllefront type game and not like LOTR ROTK if you want to play some scenematic things then you should play that game. This game is just experiencing the big battles and not about the movies accually. There are glitches but thats what the game makes it a bit hard. I play this game every day and i like the way it is
i actually like the game quite a bit although i agree with almost all your points they dont bug me much after seeing how bad games like two worlds and too human have been IMO
I never seen LOTR any of the movies, might download some tonight, and watch them 2moro when i get a pizza, :), thanks storm you planed my Friday night .
