    this game really is worth every penny. I bought this game on sale and I love it. It has lots of game play and is very very easy to be drawn into. If you love LoTR and don't have this game, then what are you waiting for?!

    I am a huge fan of Lord of the Rings, and have enjoyed a majority of the video games released thus far. This game is the absolute best LOTR based game yet, and even borrows fantastic elements from the Arkham and Assassins Creed series. Lots of exploration, and the nemesis system creates unique enemies to hunt. Easily an addictive game, and already hoping for a sequel.

    Got in on Cyber Monday Sale, and I really enjoyed it. It uses the LOTR lore well but also has some great action game play with a little RPG thrown in for good measure. I would highly recommend.

    This game should be on every gamer's "must play" lists! Graphics, provided you have a decent GPU, are impressive, and the sound fantastic.

    This is one of the better AAA games in some time. The graphics are very good and seems to be very well optimized on pc with no lag. The combat is like the Batman series, I've been playing with PS3 controller and it works flawlessly. All in all very good game and worth it for action RPG fans and LoTR fans alike.

    This game leaves very little to be desired. The graphics are great. The story line is great and engaging. The only to be desired is that the game is not very long. I got through with 100% completion in very little time at all compared to other similar games.

    Shadow Of Mordor is a must have for any LOTR fan, the game is relatively easy to pickup (I recommend an Xbox360 Controller). Despite the recent trend from Video Game Company's I cant recall any serious bugs/glitches.

    So this is a really fun game, but the comparrisons to Assassins creed are well placed. But I fell like the controls are tighter than they are in Assassins creed. This is a fun game with a beautifully created universe.
