If a superb game based on the Lord of the Rings world has been the object of your singularly focused fixation, nay, obsession, then get ready to call Middle Earth: Shadow of Mordor ‘my preciousss.’
PROS
Immersive world, Deep Nemesis system, Looks and sounds terrific, Fun to play
CONS
None worth noting
VERDICT
Middle Earth: Shadow of Mordor is easily one of the best surprises of this year, with a game that is as strong visually and from a mechanics perspective as an army of Uruks.
