O Senhor dos Anéis: A Irmandade do Anel - Sony PlayStation 2 (PS2)

The combat feels weighty and responsive, especially when you're parrying orc attacks as Aragorn. I've spent hours just exploring the Shire and Bree, the environments really capture the feel of the book.

The way you switch between Aragorn and Gandalf during the campaign keeps each level feeling fresh, and the combat has a satisfying weight to it. I’ve been hooked on the Moria sequence, the dark tunnels really capture the movie’s tension.

I’ve played through this one twice now, and the way it pulls you through the actual book’s key scenes makes the whole journey feel personal. The combat is tough but fair, and I love how the game forces you to rely on stealth and timing rather than just mashing buttons.
