This is a really good game with good graphics and all, but it misses something. While in the story mode you don't play with a hero like Aragorn, but instead you play with some stupid warriors. It's not bad playing with other warriors, but it would have been better if you could create one by yourself. This game doesn't let you decide anything by yourself. However it is a great game and is really fun to play, after you beat the story mode with the good side you can play the story with evil characters. This game also has some other modes where you can choose a side and fight the enemy (it is heroes VS heroes or some other warriors VS warriors). There are 4 types of characters, warriors, archers, mages and scouts. Warriors fight with a sword (melee) and can throw axes and knifes (ranged) once in a while. Archers fight with a bow (ranged) and only have one melee atack. Mages have a magic wand and have both melee and ranged atacks. Scouts have 2 daggers (melee) and can throw powerful bombs (ranged). The game can also be played in multiplayer mode in split-screeen.
