Rockin' Awesome Fun Game

Amazing Game. This review is short and sweet because there's so few problems with this game. It simply has easy-to-learn controls that open up a massive amount of combinations and relatively complex gameplay. "Buying" combos such as "Final Judgment", "Orc Hewer", or "Dark Deliverence" was similar to the Diablo-style gameplay of purchasing upgrades, but much more realistic because the upgrades became part of your repertoire, even though took awhile to get the knack of.^M

Beware: GamePad "not supported." Aspyr support disappoints

I have really enjoyed this game on my brother's X-box. The Aspyr version promised similar game play but with improved graphics (the graphics are great)--and I didn't need to buy an X-box to enjoy it. I bought the iShockII GamePads to facilitate cooperative (2-person) play. The program automatically identifies the controllers and the manual tells you how to set them up. However they don't work. The characters always walk and never run when the controllers do not emulate the keyboard. This makes it impossible to sucessfully complete many levels. ^M

Frustratingly Fun

I remember when the Two Towers came out for almost every platform EXCEPT for the Mac, needless to say I was a little miffed. But although you still can't get the Two Towers, you can, as you'll obviously have figured out by now, get the Return of the King thanks to EA and Aspyr. ^M
