Price Paid:  $0.00

Summary:
This is a high production game from EA based on the great movie from New Line Cinema, but as the age old question with movie based movies made into games asks does it live up to the movie? The answer for this game is, no. While the graphics and sound were high production, and the gameplay was decent, this game screams for polishing. It generally follows the story of the movie, but with some weird added, stuff like chasing orcs through the forest, or fighting a ringwraith in front of the black gates that kind of brings it down.

Really a 3.5/5

Summary:
LOTR: TROTK exceeded my expectations, because, as you know, most games based on movies are horrible, but this is an exception. It really makes you feel like your in the movie, with its movie cut-scene cinematics.

Review NaN of 6

Price Paid:  $5.00 from Rented at Movie Gall

Summary:
Lets start off with saying this game is the best first person fighter (not shooter) that I have ever played, aside from Rune. The fighting is so intense and amazing, the graphics are stunning, the storyline is beautiful, and the sounds make you feel like you are right in the battle, especially with surround sound on.

Summary:
This is one of the best games I have ever played. THe plot is great, and full of Action, and the effects are stunning. The creators stuck to the movie for the plot on this game, and this game is just awsome.

Summary:
When I first played Fellowship of the Ring I wondered "What have these people gotten themselves into?" Now that we have finally reached the conclusion of the saga, I have to admit that the ending has exceeded my expectations by far.
