IGN Reviews – Lord of the Rings: War in the North Game Review

48 Comments

1. The best game experience i had in coop and combat, not repetitive at all you level up and unlock new skills and you wont even check out different skills cuz there is so many! enemy's not repetitive orcs, spiders, gosts, trolls, all different encounters plus my favorite part you got finishing moves and it's one of not many great games you can play split screen! My complaint was that it was damn too short for something amazing like that!

2. I loved this game I don't understand why it got so much hate

3. Guys can anyone tell me how to turn off yhe vibration in the game i literally cant find it and its very very annoying

   Update: its freakin impossible… im done with tbis game im not gonna play it anymore.

4. Did not mind this game at all tbh. Played this significantly more than Shadow of Mordor which I personally despised. The co-op was awesome too, had a lot of fun just filling with randoms.

5. 2018 anyone>>/
   ?

6. 'The Once and Future King' is actually King Arthur, not Viggo Mortensen!

7. So negative, wow. Obvious this guy is not a fan of the LOTR movies

8. Who mains a dwarf and uses a sword?

9. The game is not bad

10. "You keep fighting the same enemies" Yeah if youre stuck on the first location

11. I still love this game. I've played it a million times and I still love it!

12. god this kid has an annoying dorky voice!

13. This game is guud

14. Another IGN review that basically says "not COD or Skyrim?" Then we don't think its that great

15. Idk why people hate this game too much,it wasnt special,but i have lot of fun while playing this. For me this is a good game,lotr story,characters,graphic,conversations,rpg elements,battles. 7.5/10

16. wow its 4 bucks on steam now. fortunately i watched this before deciding to purchase.

17. All i hear is the game is blend and the combat is repetitive to the max, and he gave a 7.0, wtf ? I smell the sponsorship. Lame review.

18. One dimensional characters? IT REALLY IS LIKE THE BOOKS!

19. I think there should be enemy health adjustment

20. this game had a problem that many games have to little screentimes for the important villans. but what i would credit it for is the interresting different bossfights which aquire you to take another tactic evry time and yeah its true there arent that many varietys of enemys you encounter it is still quite a lot of them i mean you got quite some types of orcs uruks and the 3 types of humans + trolls makes it a fun game to learn. only thing i hated was that the map was extemely missionbound meaning you can just go to the location where the next mission will be set

21. This was a great game, held back by glitches (unstated in the video). I remember playing this game in elementary school and it was really awesome

22. THIS GAME IS FUN AS HELL IF YOU LIKE HACK SLASH ACTION RPGS. IT'S JUST KIND OF SHORT BUT IT'S A GOOD GAME.

23. I'm gonna need FromSoftware to make a Dark Souls-esque Lord of the Rings game thanks

24. This piece of trash deserves a 5

25. 7 out of 10 is pretty damn decent all things considered…

26. At least it's ok than Shadow of Modor for PS3 … ..

27. Still, you have to agree that IGN was somewhat less corrupt and more honest back at this time.

28. I did enjoy this game I just wished they add more to it

29. Still trying to get strength of our alliance..
    Add me on psn: DeathGodRyukk

30. What's great with all these videos is that I can go to Youtube, check out a trailer and / or review, and then swing on over to Amazon and / or Ebay for price comparison and then make the kill … I mean, purchase, 🙂 But yeah, just started playing Shadow of Mordor and now considering War in the North as well…

31. "great graphics"

32. https://www.change.org/p/ea-games-make-lotr-conqest-2?recruiter=580102016&utm_source=share_for_starters&utm_medium=copyLink

33. "You face a Dunadain now!" 😀

34. I have yet to find a better RPG than Skyrim

35. system link will make my xbox 360 disconnect.

36. how do I switch characters to level up that character ?

37. on the Xbox 360 Farin will turn invisible and if his whole body isn't gone his face will be

38. Well graphics are subjective, based on time. So, good co-op? That's it? Lame.

39. Just got this game on sale for 4.99 and got my buddy a copy so we can play together. Was it worth it? I played back on 360 and I got into it.

40. how does the co-op work on pc?

41. over and over until i had all the gear and the platinum

42. i played the game 16 time and i am srs

43. The co-op on this is so fun

44. I played this game only because its one of the few where you can play split screen and both customize your characters (not just player 1). I actually really enjoyed it, but that's because of co-op. Playing alone, I admit this game is f*cking lame.

45. Is there a open world to explore?

46. After Dark Souls, I just can't take this game seriously. Everyone below seems to hate this review but it pretty much matches my impression. Too much button mashing. Very little personality in the characters.

47. the best lotr game isnt even a game in itself, its the third age total war mod for medieval ll total war. At least if you like strategy :p otherwise I enjoyed the return of the king game a lot, but havent played all lotr games out there. also an official lotr strategy game that I enjoyed was lotr battle for middle earth ll, it looks and plays a lot like age of empires ^^

48. I had a blast with this game!
