    One Doesn't Simply Walk into Mordor. Or Do They?

    By deactivated-586cf1b4ca9a4 | Review Date: Jan 29, 2015 | PS4

    Prologue The very first 8th generation game I choose to play is Middle Earth: Shadow of Mordor. Not for 60fps and 1080p, but for what this next generation should be about. After all next-gen is NOT ABOUT RESOLUTUION ... Read Full Review

    Solid game

    By sovereign17 | Review Date: Jan 16, 2015 | PS4

    The release of this title came as a surprise to me given the amount of time that has passed since the LOTR films. Because of this, I was wary when playing it for the first time, especially as previous LOTR games have bee... Read Full Review

    Great Game Definitely Worth Playing (at least once)

    By skeet1964 | Review Date: Jan 06, 2015 | PS4

    Overall, I really enjoyed Shadow of Mordor. The combat and the lore was definitely the best parts for me. The Nemesis system was unique and innovative, but not really sure what the end result accomplished. Even thoug... Read Full Review

    Decent gameplay, but not for the 360

    By archery_guy1701 | Review Date: Jan 01, 2015 | X360

    Shadow of Mordor was a bit of a disappointment for me. I play primarily PC, but I got SoM for the Xbox 360 because I liked the way the Arkham games played on it. The game play is solid. The combat is smooth and you never... Read Full Review

    Never thought much of this game but then GS made this a 2014 GOTY....

    By PeterDuck | Review Date: Dec 19, 2014 | PC

    Seriously, it almost sounds like all of the GS staff took off early for the holidays and Joe Shmoe, the janitor, was left in charge of running the office. He booted a PC in mid-December of 2014 and wrote an editorial for... Read Full Review

    Either i'm missing the point, or this is the most frustrating game of the year

    By Nighteg | Review Date: Dec 04, 2014 | PC

    The difficulty is ridiculous. There's no tweaking it, so we have to suffer through it. You fight hordes of enemies, you always lose at the end (and that's before i even reach the captain), then you get this little circl... Read Full Review
