    A fun, if sometimes frustrating, slash 'em up with some satisfying attack combos and shiny special effects.

    The look and feel of the film has been nailed perfectly, the character models are faithful to their "real life" counter part and you get to take on hundreds of worthless monsters and kill them with a nice big s... Read Full Review

    Different......

    This is a very cool game, there is a short video and then it takes you straight in to game play. Anyone can start hacking away at Orcs and it's instant fun. The game has a very different view from most games, where the c... Read Full Review

    As the third Lord of the Rings, this game stood out.

    I've played the first two Lord of the Rings and they were pretty good (except for the Fellowship of the Ring). But the third game takes the prize. The Return of the King follows the movie, except for a few levels that ar... Read Full Review
