I fell in love with this game the first time I played it. The graphics and the sounds are incredible. The gameplay if fun. It keeps you interested especially since they have three different paths to follow, as well as several different players you can do it with. I play it with my son so having it play in co-op mode is a HUGE benefit and source of enjoyment.My only gripe is that if you are playing by yourself, it is sometimes hard to build up a player. Locking the game behind you as you progress is really disappointing.Other than that, fantastic!!!! Highly recommended. A huge improvement over the Two Towers game. I love this game!!

This game is FANTASTIC!!! I had it as a kid on play-station but it broke and I ended up upgrading to xbox 360 as I got older. The xbox version works on the 360 and it plays seemingly better than a lot of modern games if you ignore the lackey graphics which were great at the time. It brings back the feeling of watching the LOTR films the first time. I recommend getting this.

I’ll be honest. When a movie is made into a video game I don’t usually enjoy it. They always seem to miss something or the developer gets lazy and doesn’t put enough effort into the game. “Return of the King” is a different game. It has its frustrating moments but many a time you can deal with it.The game begins where The Two Towers left off at Helm’s deep. You start off as Gandolf and you play through the first level and you’ll note the feel of this game is much like Dynasty Warriors. The game will tally up how many kills you get and it will also score you on how well you killed an enemy.In each level you’ve got three guages at the bottom, one for experience (EXP) one for your health and a combo guage. Depending on the combo you do (Fair, Good, Excellent or Perfect) will determine how much EXP you get. When you’ve aquired enough EXP you can buy abilities for whichever character you’re using or even for the entire fellowship at once. Just note that for the fellowship the abilities cost more.After the completition of each level you can choose a different one frome either “The Path of the Wizard”, “The Path of the King” or “The Path of the Hobbits.” It doesn’t matter which route you choose eventually you’ll end up having to do them all. “The Path of the Wizard” let’s you play as Gandolf but there aren’t any other choices until you’ve completed the game. “The Path of the King” lets you use Legolas, Gimli or Aragorn. “The Path of the Hobbits” only lets you use Sam until yo.

So I’m not really what anyone would call a hard core gamer. Truth is, I’m still slowly learning how to play on each system, via my boyfriend who is a gamer and is teaching me. That said, I’ve been attempting to play quite a variety of games and this is by far one of the easiest to grasp. The controls are pretty much learned as you go along without a whole lot of explanation. The first battle that they throw you into lets you play around a bit, getting used to how each character moves and fights, as well as how you can interact with your environment. Beware though, unlike other games, there is no jump command (at least to my knowledge), and “block” is actually a parry, which means that you have to time it right with your enemy’s attack for the move to work correctly. With each battle, you gain more points based on how well you fight. With the points you earn, you can unlock new moves for a single character or the party as a whole. Also, playing this game single player can take a bit to get used to. Your companions played by the system usually don’t end up helping nearly as much as they should, so you’re pretty much on your own. One pretty sweet feature, though, is that you get to have the weapons the characters used in the movie. Just when you start to think, “crap, I have to hit things far away and I have an axe,” the game steps in to lend a hand. You can switch weapons to long rang with the left trigger and fire them off with the same button you use for short ran.

Lord of the Rings – Return of the King videogame is now out for just about every platform. You can be Aragorn, Sam, Gandalf or other characters on your quest to save Middle Earth!Made in the same style as Two Towers, the game covers the third movie complete with video clips from the movie, actor interviews, voice-overs by the original actors and much more. Gandalf’s actor, for example, jokes that the wizard in the game seems to be far more agile than the wizard in the movie was :)The gameplay is very similar to Two Towers and apparently they made many improvements based on user feedback. For example, when you do character upgrades, you can choose just to upgrade the character you are currently playing with (say Faramir) or to upgrade ALL characters for that ability. That makes the upgrade paths VERY interesting.There are three main event paths. There is the way of the Wizard, where Gandalf takes on the Gondor defenses. There’s the way of the King, where Aragorn builds up his army. Then there’s the way of the Hobbit, where poor Sam and Frodo struggle their ways into the depths of Moria.It’s a great preview of the movie, showing lots of film clips of the various battles and scenes. There are many very slick changes between video and gameplay that really make you feel involved. The character movement is great, between the combo attacks and killing blows.It’s not just a hack and slash, there’s a fair amount of strategy involved, both in in-game handling of the enemies as well as.

First ImpressionsAs soon as you put the CD in the Xbox it starts the game. You have to sit through almost 2 minutes of inescapable logos and stuff until you get to a kind of prologue bit. Then your stuffed right into the middle of a battle as Gandalf! This adds to the sudden excitement of the game.GraphicsThe graphics are state of the art and they surpass even Xbox’s usual brilliance, EA Games has another award winner here. Everything is just so realistic! The settings match the film perfectly, Helms Deep, Osgiliath, Minas Tirith to name but a few! The characters are amazingly exact and you really feel like you are the person! There are small commentaries before each level read by Gandalf over the top of real footage from various parts of the three films, then you are lead into the game by means of the film kind of merging into the game graphics, the join is unnoticeable, honestly!Game playThe game play is even better than the graphics, if at all possible. There are three different “paths”. Path of the wizard using Gandalf; Path of the King using Aragorn, Legolas and Gimli; path of the Hobbits using Frodo and Sam. You basically fight your way through Orcs, Uruk-Hai, The Dead, Spiders, Easterlings, Cave Trolls and various other evil creatures to complete your goal. You can interact with items around you as well; spears, ladders, rocks, catapults, levers, ropes…etc. You get to fight Bosses such as Shelob, the king of the dead, Sauron’s messenger and even the Ringwraiths thems.

Gave this as a gift and the kids still play them all the time. Im not a huge console game fan (I’m more of a PC FPS player) but my nephews love these and said to rate them four stars! I gave them the whole LOTR set along with the Hobbit.
