Kick hiney with TWO PLAYERS!

Reviewed by benkosar on February 22, 2008 | report this review

This game has it's goods, and it's bads. Well, it's technically all goods. Two Towers was developed out of house for EA, and was probably one of the best playing experiences a player could ever have. They moved the production in-house, away from the first studio for Return of the King.

As a result, the graphics aren't as good, there is a stark contrast between two towers, and 'King. However, they placed more of a focus on the fighting, added two player support, and added things in that actually helped to bridge gaps in the story from the movie (Don't ever see THAT, do you? The whole ghost sequence adds a LOT.).

If you enjoyed this game, and you haven't played two towers, it's even MORE impressive. However, it's 1 player only.

There's really nothing bad to say about the game, except the hit in the graphics area. Everything else has really been improved. Great game, just as fun (If not a little more manageable) with two players. Grab a buddy and kick some orc ass.
