The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers for PlayStation 2

Pros: Excellent graphics, good integration of movie footage
Cons: Much too short, no multiplayer

Licensed games are often cause for worry as far as quality is concerned. Especially when a game is based on a movie, and is shipped to coincide with the movie’s release, that often says that the game is put out more to make money by capitalizing on...

Pros: Great graphics and sound, tons of extras, true to movies.
Cons: Short, linear, did I say short?

INTRO

The Lord Of The Rings trilogy promises to be something not seen on movie screens since the first three Star Wars movies dominated the late seventies/early eightie’s. With the books already having a vast following, the first...

Pros: Excellent Graphics and use of the DVD
Cons: Not enough missions; can get difficult to see character at times.

I bought the PS2 for my children (honest, not for me!) two months ago; I was very surprised at the time to see a licensed version of the ‘Two Towers’ already available, as the movie had not been released at the time. Electronic Arts have worked...

Pros: Exceptional graphics (for the time); nice link to the movies.
Cons: Limited Missions - not intuitive gameplay at times.

I’ve been playing computer games since I was a teenager, and now I’m in the forties I still enjoy the challenge and excitement of a good game. Mostly I like RPG and strategy, but occasionally I will try different types of games. Generally I play games ...

Pros: Excellent atmosphere with great voices and graphics!
Cons: Not being able to bypass the cutscenes and go straight to the action.

J.R.R. Tolkein has created a fantasy atmosphere that has a strange sense of realism to it despite the fantastic elements of the story. His vivid descriptions and skillful invention of the elvish language has set his Lord of The Rings Trilogy almost as...

Pros: Hey, it's LOTR. Graphics are pretty sweet. 3 playable characters. Better than the first.
Cons: Too short a game. Doesn't live up to the potential the film has produced.

let's face it, film portrayals in games are usually pants. you know what i mean, you watch a film like blade and you think to yourself, the game is bound to be just as good, because software producers aren't really just trying to cash in on the ...

Pros: Excellent presentation. Incredible graphics. Attack concept. Cinematics.
Cons: unusually short game, dialogue could have used some polishing

Turning J.R.R. Tolkien's masterpiece "The Lord of the Rings" into a film was one of the boldest undertakings of entertainment history. Turning his universe into a game is another. What appears to be another hyped up game that can be completed in a matter...

Pros: Detailed Graphics, Great Productions Values, Addictive Gameplay
Cons: Lack of multiplayer, linear game, and also short

This is the one game to rule them all, well at least for a movie-based game. I bought this game for PS2 the day it came out in anticipation of seeing some movie footage and playing a fun game. I was excited but then I remembered the memories of movie-ba ...

Pros: Sublime Graphics. Great Action.
Cons: Too short by half. Gameplay could be too shallow for some.

The Lord of The Rings .... made in to a game. Ah, how lovely. We are going to be presented with a pitiful excuse for a game that was made as a shameless cash in to coincide with the Lord of the Rings-mania caused by the release of the huge-budget films...

Pros: Stunning Graphics, Perfect Sound, Original actors do voices, captures the action of the movie flawlessly
Cons: Too Short, very linear, alot of button smashing, difficult, 3 characters but only one story

As Lord of the Rings swept movie theatres nation wide, EA Games was hard at work creating a brilliant video game masterpiece. This was indeed a difficult assignment because almost all video games based on movies (no matter how spectacular the movie) have...

Pros: Graphics, you can return it at EB a week after you bought it for $30!
Cons: Gameplay, No real skill needed

I wanted to like this game, I really did!! I thoroughly enjoyed the 1st movie (haven't had a chance to see the second yet), I have read the books, the game should be great!! Well, not so. Let me explain. No, that is too much. Let me sum up.

Pros: Graphics,Sound
Cons: Gameplay,Not Enough Levels,No Multiplayer

Hey Ripp here with my first but hopefully not last review; I hope you get what you need. My first review is over a very impressive game The Lord of The Rings: The Two Towers; a game that has outstanding graphics and cut sequences from the movie that...

Pros: Good graphics, wonderful musical score, exceptional control, follows the movie plot closely.
Cons: A bit repetitive, unskipable (if that's a word) cinemas.

I have been a fan of Lord of the Rings since I was 10 years old. Since that time I have read the books, seen the movies, played the games, bought the products... you name it I have it (yes... even the mugs). I am also proud to say that I am an...

Pros: Great graphics, beautiful levels, fun combos, enemy A.I.,almost everything!!
Cons: Hardly anything, except for the game being to short and linear and no multiplayer

Lord of the Rings is an action-packed game full of hidden surprises. This game is more than just hacking and slashing. You got to have some strategy and skill to earn those experience points. Then you use these points to purchase upgrades like powerful co ...

Pros: great graphics and excellent game play. also scenes from the movies.
Cons: too short and no multi-player.hard to master combos.

this is a great movie based video game. The first one was a total bomb.They really redeemed themselv ...
