A good game but it got some flaws. A decent fighting game but not much more.

The game is ok. And has great bonus features such as amazing cheat codes that you only can use once you've completed the game. So that's one of the things that make the game highly addictive, sometimes. After a while you can get tired. The graphics are kinda good but they could have been MUCH more detailed, the faces are blurry and the lips aren't even moving. Sound is good from the movies but can get repetitive as in most games. The combat system is the best thing in the game because it got some sense, you can build up your own different strategies in different levels. Slash, guard, hide, slash, guard can be one example. A bit like that is it in "The Death's King" level. While each level is completed you get your own grade good, great, very good, and perfect. Combined with that you earn points to buy cool power-ups. Such as much longer time using Invisibility cloak, fire arrows, and a combo where you can slash the same time you rise up after being beaten. The dialogue is kinda boring "Ugly little hobbits" "I've got to find Frodo" but they are not saying much anyway. The game has multiplayer which is good but could have been done better. The characters has to be so close to each other all the time otherwise you can't go further, irritating. But they've got an counter of how many you killed which is cool cuz you can then compete with that just like they did in the movies. The lifebar is made so each player can die 1 time or 1 player 2 times. The most irritating is that between all levels everytime you start a new game you have to stand out all those LONG video clips, man couldn't they have added an option to jump over them or something?!
