Product Description

In Middle-Earth: Shadow of Mordor, gamers take on the role of Talion, a valiant ranger whose family is slain in front of him the night Sauron and his army return to Mordor, moments before his own life is taken. Resurrected by a Spirit of vengeance and empowered with Wraith abilities, Talion ventures into Mordor and vows to destroy those who have wronged him. Through the course of his personal vendetta, Talion uncovers the truth of the Spirit that compels him, learns the origins of the Rings of Power, and ultimately confronts his true nemesis.

Every enemy that players face is a unique individual, differentiated by their personality, strengths, and weaknesses. Through the Nemesis System, enemy relationships and characteristics are shaped by player actions and decisions to create personal archenemies that remember and adapt to the player and are distinct to every gameplay session. Gamers are able to craft their own battles, enemies, and rewards within the dynamic world, which remembers and adapts to their choices, delivering a unique experience to every player.

5.0 out of 5 stars An amazing Hack and Slash Orc Slaying Game
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on December 13, 2014
Platform For Display: Xbox OneEdition: Standard EditionVerified Purchase
This has to be one of the best hack and slash Lord of the Rings games to date. And whats best about this is that you don't have to be a Lord of the Rings fan to play through it (I was one of those huge over - hyped fans however). Content wise the game has a lot to offer, including 20 story missions to progress through which are very engaging, 32 Outcast rescue missions which have you rescuing human slaves from the Uruks and 30 challenge missions (10 for each of your three weapons). This game was developed by Warner Bros Games, who developed the original 2 Batman Arkham games, Shadow of Mordor works in the same way with its heavily focused combat system as the Batman games have done, making you press Y to counter enemy attacks ect. The game is heavily focused on combat, it tries to add variety to its missions by making you use stealth which works in the same way as Assassin's Creed (you can hide in bushes, Parkour and attract enemies over which is basically Assassin's Creed). There are also forge towers scattered around the world maps you need to activate to find the collectibles and side mission locations. There is not just one, but two world maps, which have a lot of variety added to them. The combat, being the main meat of the game has a lot of combo moves and upgrades added to it, allowing for character progression and it makes it easier for the player. Because there is a wide variety in enemies, they need to be dealt with in different ways, for example orcs with shields and spears need to be vaulted over and killed from behind. It would be wise to deal with groups of enemies by using the environment to your advantage, shoot arrows at fly nests, attract Caragore beasts and ride them yourself, cause the orcs and Uruks to turn on each other in combat by branding them and command the Captains and Warchiefs to attack each other. The games Nemesis system is also a beautiful thing indeed, when you die the orc/uruk that killed you gets promoted, if a grunt kills you they become a captain, you then get brought back to life and can go on a Vendetta mission against them making dying much more meaningful. When you encounter these orc and uruk leaders, they say things about their previous encounters with you, like how they want to burn you after you burned them in combat last time or if they run away. This makes hunting these bastards down much more meaningful. Once these leaders have been killed they will drop runes which can be sold for money to buy upgrades or added to your weapons to improve on them. Exploit the weaknesses of these various leaders to get better upgrade rewards after killing them. The game on its own took me 10 hours to beat, but the various side missions, challenges and collectibles summed up to about 36 hours in total within a week of playing the game. Despite its slight repetitiveness the game has good value, was interesting with its story and characters and deserves all the praise that it gets. Even Gollum makes an appearance :) This game easily deserves a 9/10, with only some minor improvements to the story that need to be made, including more memorable characters (going to avoid talking about the story due do some heavy spoiler alerts).

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastically Playable With Wonderful Attention To Detail
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on October 13, 2014
Platform For Display: Xbox OneEdition: Standard EditionVerified Purchase
An extremely enjoyable venture into Middle Earth which combines the playstyles of recent Assassin's Creed and Batman releases.

My Xbox One has largely been gathering dust since release day, I bought into the hype for COD Ghosts, Titanfall and Watchdogs, each time I came away disappointed. As a result (and having taken part in the beta) I decided to completely forego Destiny and wait for Shadow of Mordor instead.

I'm 9.5 hours into this game now and feel it's not too early to share my thoughts for those of you deciding to buy this game. Those 9.5 hours have put me only 15% through the content of the game, to give you an idea of depth.

I'm a Lord of the Rings fan but as an avid gamer I'm writing without letting that influence my feelings on this title.

This is without doubt my favourite Xbox One release to date, it's brought pure laugh out loud moments as well as oh no moments so far. The development of the characters you come up against is wonderful. This game is incredibly open world, you can choose to pursue any number of story line or side quests depending on how you feel like playing at a given time.

Fancy stealthing into an Uruk stronghold and trying to assassinate their Captain? You can. Fancy just strolling in the front door and engaging dozens in sword combat? You can do that too. You can choose to stealth kill or horrifically and savagely tear an Uruk apart in order to intimidate his fellows if you wish.

Bite of more than you can chew and the standard Uruk who gets the killing blow in gains esteem and is elevated through the ranks becoming a named character whom you must deal with. It's possible to interrogate his inferiors to find out strengths and weaknesses which in turn brings additional rewards if you kill him.

The detail really is fantastic, both graphically and within the characters themselves.

If you enjoyed the combat in recent Batman games then this is the same, with the ability to unlock extra skillsets in two different skill trees as you develop your character. Adding additional abilities depending on how you enjoy playing.

Something I hope to see added when extra content is brought out, is the challenge score tables that made Batman worth playing once you had completed the main content. I'm generally someone who prefers multiplayer with friends and currently this game is purely single player without even the ability to challenge friends by competing at challenges which Batman did allow, maybe this will be added in future.

As such I'd rate this 4.5 Stars but as I must choose, Shadow of Mordor gets a well deserved 5 from me. Very fun and a pleasure to spend time on.

4.0 out of 5 stars Assassins : Shadows Of Arkham In Mordor
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on October 5, 2014
Platform For Display: Xbox OneEdition: Standard EditionVerified Purchase
Ok so it is a certain batman franchise & a certain band of brotherhood "mish mash"but : Shadows of Mordor presents all the good bits pieced, together and packaged in the Lord of the rings lands and it does it remarkably!

Action

So Arkham City has one of the best fluid combat in gaming series, attacking one enemy to reverse another throw a batarang at an unexpecting enemy all to build and continue your combo whilst knocking out bad guys ... Well picture that but as a type of solider from Gondor instead batarang he has a knife and instead bad guys you have orcs etc.. It is the same fluent fighting that some mastered & approved of so long a go in Arkham. Now instead of knocking enemies unconscious you execute them in a gory decapitation or run through (earning a brutal 18 cert) this also contiues with the stealth kill take downs which we all loved in Arkham also takedowns from above earnt by doing a certain thing in a mission exactly the same here, With Talions own gadgets blades, bows etc..

Story

The brutal scene at the start is scripted & acted beautifully you really give a dam about Talion and his quest for venegence - the wraith world adds to this with a massive Lord rings story connection to the saga in the story - Gollum being used creatively was a brilliant touch - I must admit I keep getting side tracked with other things so haven't finished the story but am in no rush as it has so much to offer me.

The world with in

The land is crafted very well however I miss the feel of how Arkham gloomy streets or buildings looked, as to an open world lands to explore, this looks all the same to me, castles caves beasts orcs all litter the world lots of collectables secrets to find and achievements to pop.. But this is not enough to take the glory away from this quiet AAA title! From climbing roof tops jumping off on to enemies it's almost like a certain brotherhood with a white hood on but again Shadows performs this very well also so don't be put off by this.

Overall

This is an amazing, well crafted open world game with so much to explore & I may part with cash for the dlc also as I'm enjoying myself in mordor massively One ring to rule them all One game to challenge the open world you can't go wrong with Shadows of Mordor defiantly pleasantly surprised get this game!

9/10 for me very pleased

3.0 out of 5 stars Some tips for the casual gamer
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on February 4, 2016
Platform For Display: Xbox OneEdition: Standard EditionVerified Purchase
I'm just a casual gamer; I'm not hardcore at all, or even average. I like to maybe pick up the controller, turn on the XBox and have some light easy stress free gaming. GTA type games or even Assassins Creed where I can pick it up and complete a mission or two an hour here and there.

I've updated this review after initially giving it a 1 star, as the first time I played it, I was constantly being hounded and killed by the same captain over and over and over again. It became so ridiculous and stressful that I wanted to just throw the game in the bin.

I decided to restart the game from scratch and try again as it has so many good reviews. This time I was armed with tips from blogs over the Interweb and now I am actually playing it like it should be played and the game is probably tenfold better.

It has great graphics and the story line seems interesting too, the battles are easier when you know what you're doing and you must learn about runes and mirian to actually be able to do anything in this game. If you don't, then you'll die repeatedly like I did the first time I played this game.

It is a decent game but it's not quite on par with Assassins Creed, but that's just my taste. I can understand how gamers who are more than just casual gamers would enjoy a game like this. I prefer things to be a little more simple.

My tips to a casual gamer like me would be:
- Follow the story line a bit before you try to be a hero and kill random Orc captains.
- Complete as many side missions as possible to earn mirian, try to complete the extra objectives too.
- Spend mirian to increase health ASAP
- Use ability points to unlock the stealth execute and run away at speed abilities first, then to push an enemy when you block. These are your most useful when starting off.
- I found a rune quite early on which has a chance of increasing your health 10% for arrow head shots. This is very handy when you have low energy and can't find a plant to replenish yourself.
- Grab and interrogate as many orcs as you can to learn about captain's identities and their weaknesses
- Target the captains that are weak to stealth or arrow attacks first. They are the easiest to kill and help you level up.
- When fighting, don't just hit attack like a madman, look out for the dodge/block opportunities above everything else.
- If you are overwhelmed in a fight, run away - this is where the run away ability comes in handy that gives you an extra boost. Without that boost, captains can catch up with you. Another trick for escaping is to quickly start another mission which makes the orcs chasing you disappear (a bit stupid, but it works).
- Try to take out as many archers as you can before a battle. You can't block or dodge their arrows and sometimes it's difficult to see where they are coming from.
- Lastly, if you want to get from A to B without getting in to too many battles; just run. Orcs lose interest very quickly so running from A to B is will avoid confrontations.

The main reasons I'm dropping 2 stars for this game is:
- The game made no sense to me and was totally impossible until I read some blogs. I could have quite easily given up on this game after day 1.
- The map so far is way too flat for my liking with a few ruins here and there that you can climb up. I'd prefer more structures, maybe there are some later on but at first there aren't that many.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best game I have played in a long time!
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on October 14, 2014
Platform For Display: Xbox OneEdition: Standard EditionVerified Purchase
This is truly one of the greatest games I have ever played, and definitely the feels the most 'next-gen' out of all of the next-gen games I have played - largely down to the excellent nemesis system. I am a massive Lord of the Rings fan, and this game does not fail to deliver. Simply examining lore alone it is phenomenal, with more and more revealed to the persistent and curious player. This game rewards exploration, whether it is re-forging the legends of your weapons, rescuing slaves or tracking down all the little artifacts and learning about the rich world of Middle Earth. The story was excellent, with some fantastic plot-twists and very interesting snippets of lore about the One Ring (which I did not know!). I found the combat rewarding and challenging, initially I would struggle to take on groups of enemies and relied more on stealth and quietly dispatching my foes one by one. However towards the end of the game - as I drew nearer to possessing every upgrade for Talion and had began to master the combat system - I found myself cutting swathes through hordes of enemies. I had a LOT of fun using the brutalise maneuver (trust me, it's awesome!)

All in all I could not recommend this game enough. It is the game that Middle Earth has been crying out for for a long time, and I hope it reignites interesting in the franchise from the gaming community.

If you are a Lord of the Rings fan or just enjoy brutally murdering Orcs, buy this game.
If you are a gamer, buy this game.
