The Return of the King is a great action game, and should not be missed by anyone who is a fan of LOTR.
The Bad: Sometimes the combat feels very hack-and-slash and repetitive, some noticeable glitches and errors.
LOTR: The Return of the King for the PS2 is by far the best LOTR game that has come out. The game is intense, and has a captivating single-player campaign and co-op campaign that follows the story of the movie very well. There are many levels you will have to play through to reach the very last one. Each level is very different from one another, and are also very well-designed. In the game, there are also many different characters to choose from, and each have their own special strengths and powers. Some of the characters include Gandalf, Frodo, Aragorn, Legolas, Gimli, Sam, Mary, and Pippin. In the game, for each level you beat, you gain a certain amount of points based on how well you did. With the points that you earn, you can buy special moves and new weapons for your characters. So, you can upgrade your characters quite a bit, which is always fun to do. Overall, the Return of the King is a thoroughly impressive game, and will most likely even appeal to people who don't care for Lord of the Rings at all.
