    Game did not come in original packaging, no manual included. Works great and it's really fun though.

    Shadow of Mordor was a great Lord of the Rings game that combines Assassin Creed with Arkham Ayslum combat. Overall the game was excellent, really love the free costume to play as Lithariel ,the female warrior you meet in the game.

    The nemesis system in this game is cool to watch play out. The bad guys you fight will remember you from previous exchanges and mention things from the last battle!! Awesome!!!

    I really enjoy the way the warlords and generals get stronger as they kill you. It's very satisfying to finally kill them. The combat in this game is great, the try is good, but not great. The game will absolutely keep you entertained, especially if you liked any of the Batman games or if you are a LOTR fan

    So far so good! Loving the combat system and the hunt for strong villains, but just not sold for all the hype it got.

    This was one of my favorite games I've played in quite awhile. It's basically Assassin's Creed meets Lord of the Rings.

    Shadow of Mordor blends the gameplay of Assassin's Creed, and Batman into the Lord of the Rings universe. It is an absolute joy to play. The various systems are well thought out, and innovative. Unfortunately, the story is not very good, but roaming through this Orc sandbox makes this one of the funnest games out there. A must play!
