Customers are saying

Customers enjoy the engaging gameplay, compelling story, and innovative Nemesis System in Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor. Many also praise the game's beautiful open world and responsive controls. However, some players find the difficulty challenging, and a few note limited replayability after completing the main story. The game's strengths clearly outweigh its weaknesses for most players.

    Fun game, especially if you enjoy the Batman Arkham games. You can choose to either hack and slash your way through the game or go for stealth, which I prefer. I am usually cautious when it comes to games based around movie franchises, but this one is worth it!

    I had high hopes for this after reading many positive reviews, but it simply failed to capture my attention. I am not a hard core LotR fanboy, but the story was just not interesting. The one thing this game has going for it is gorgeous graphics. What it boils down to is extremely repetitive beat 'em up combat in which you slaughter orcs by the hundreds. The "nemesis" system I had doubts about going into this, but I do not think it is worthy of all the praise it has gotten. None of the characters are well developed, least of all the orcs, so why would I care which ones get promoted. It makes no real difference to the game progression; it merely is another way of randomizing enemy strengths/weaknesses.

    This game is steeped with Lord of the Rings lore! It is also excellent at taking the best aspects of the Batman Arkham series' fight mechanics and meshing with the stealthy acrobatic movement of Assassin's Creed. It is ultra-violent and super fun!

    This game requires A LOT of patience. You can find yourself in situations where you get swarmed by a lot of orcs so do not head into battle with a group of orcs and try to be a hero. I love to use stealth and take out enemies. LOVE this game!

    Great game with a great mix of other games, its a good long game, about 20hrs to beat, 35hr for a platinum which I got and had fun doing so. Some games drag for that last trophy but this game did not. Mordor is one of my best games for 2014

    Up front, this game is fun and makes you want to complete the whole thing. Gameplay is fluid and the mechanics of how the army works is new and refreshing. If you want to finish the entire game, it would take approximately 30-40 hours. To finish the story, 10-15 hours most likely. Would recommend.

    I've put nearly 20 hours into this game and I'm only 30% of the way through. There is a ton to do in this game and I have yet to get bored with it. Excited about new content coming or in December. I would highly recommend this one.
