Lord of the Rings: the Twin Towers is dope for PS2. i have yet to beat it but the cinematography is cool, and the battle scenes are intense. Good game all around…

**i just finished reading LOTR part 3: Return of the King
dunno about games, books seem magical too me…the movies were alright but the books are something else IMO
its like travelling to a whole new world…i don’t know how to explain it except that its magical and a big time stress reliever (reading that is) **
Yeah mak. It is magical. but at the same time you feel like it´s not.
That´s the great thing about tolkien, he brings all this wonderful characters (elves, dwarfs, ishtaris, maias, valars) to an everyday life. Little by little you get used to them, and the fantasy hides itself behind the story and the trama.
Tolkien does not try to impress you with the magic and fantasy of his tales, like star trek or star wars, but in the end you can help yourself and you get amazed by all aspects of this wonderful tale.
If you get a chance to read Tolkien´s The Hobbit and Silmarillion, do it. Very nice reading material.
And mind you that tolkien thought of middle earth as the earth in the very beginning.
Most games that are based on a movie or tv show or book, like LotR, Spiderman. etc… are usually pretty bad. They rely on the name to sell the game, not the quality of the game.
well guig0 i DID like the ending…but i think it woulda been cooler if he went out with a BANG instead of a whimper…i dunno thats why i love action movies, even if Bad guy is shot 50 times, he somehow comes back and causes damage!!
i think i WILL read The Hobbit as he goes everywhere…i want to learn more about everything…all of valar
since you want to know more about tolkien´s world, i recomend these books:
hobbit;
silmarillion;
lost tales 1;
lost tales 2;
unfinished tales.
I´ve read them all, and the last three are kindaof complicated, but if you read all of them, in that order, you will have no problems. And they´re awesome! =)
yea i read LOTR each book in like 1 day…about 10 hours…i am a fanatic when something catches my interest, maybe thats why girls think i’m stalking them…
ok you have convinced me…i shall read all of them if i can get my hands on them, hopefully my library will have it!!
i love the books and the movie, awesome animation !!! great story great movies.
but totally off the subject if you want a good game, check out Tom clancy’s splinter cell!!! on the PC , Woooahhh now thats a game that will wow you in everyway! :o :o

**is Tom Clancy’s Splinter Shell a 1st Person Shooter like Ghost Recon, and his other Rainbow Six games? **
Not to be a game dork here, but splinter cell is not a first person shooter. Actually it is a 3’rd person perspective game. Similar to Metal Gear or Tomb roaider in perspective, but the gameplay of the game is incredible.
In what other game can you sneak up to someone, put your gun to thier head and interrogate them. Only to blow thier brains all over the wall when you get what you need from them.
