Customer Reviews

Tolkien enters the world of console gaming!
For a true Tolkien fan, this game is a masterpiece. It focuses on hack and slash action (nonstop, except cutscenes) based on the first two new line cinema movies.

Graphics: Player models are good, sometimes funny to look at though. The game beautifully blends scenes from the movies with the graphics from the game.

Sound: Soundtracks from the movies, combined with all the original actors voicing the characters. Dolby Digital 5.1 makes this a realistic experience, swords clashing all around you. It doesn't get much more like the movie than that!

Story: Exactly as Tolkien made it. The game is told by Aragorn talking to Eowyn (I think) and telling her of his adventures.

Gameplay: Excellent, I couldn't be more pleased with the tremendous action that makes you feel like a part of the Fellowship. You upgrade your weapons (and life) and earn more moves by purchasing them with upgrade points that you earn after each level. The better score you got in the level, the more upgrade points you recieve. I would have liked for the game to not be so restrictive. Some of the time it feels like an old fashioned side scroller, for you can only move left and right, even though the "real" world is still untraversed. The parts which allow you to move freely are small, I would be more pleased if the game allowed you to go more places.

Replayability: Excellent. This game is beat on "easy" in very little time, but you can unlock a bonus mission and a secret character with more playing. There is no multiplayer :( I would have liked cooperative. The thing I like about this game most would be that whenever I feel in a "Tolkien" mood, I just put in the Two Towers and enjoy the storyline and action sequences over and over again.

Great game! Kept me by the TV for a long while, but rent if you have any doubts about it.

Holy cow--this game alone justifies an XBox system purchase!
I played the first Lord of the Rings game for the XBox and was a little disappointed. The graphics were good--nearly everything on the XBox exceeds what you can get on the other platforms--but there was something about it that felt "ported" from another platform. As a result, I felt like the potential of the game was never reached.

On the other hand, Lord Of The Rings: The Two Towers is DAZZLING! The game play is noticably improved, and the graphics are literally jaw-dropping. I have never seen a graphical adventure game that has the resolution, color and quality of Lord Of The Rings: The Two Towers. I think this will be one of those rare video games that people hang onto for years and stays in demand well down the road as so-called "newer and better" games and systems come around. In this regard, I would think the purchase of Lord Of The Rings: The Two Towers is a pretty smart investment!

The Two Toweres is action-packed, and full of excitement.
Oh yes. The video game based after The Two Towers movie is here on Xbox! Play as characters Aragorn, Legolas, and Gimli, as they fight their way through orcs, goblins, and trolls. Unlock the secret mission and secret character! Also buy new upgrades and advance levels with your expeirience points! This game is very challenging, and may take you a while to beat a level. But that's part of the fun, isn't it? If you think the price is to [spendy], and the game won't last you a day, listen to this! I am a pretty expierienced gamer, and it took me more than a month to beat this game! All in all this game is great. Did I mention the graphics? Breathtaking. If you are a Lord of the Rings fan, you would be dumb not to buy this game.
