Is it still worth playing?
Adapting the films The Two Towers and The Return of the King, this 2003 hack and slash game for the PlayStation 2 and Windows is played from a third person view. Each character has a quick attack that does little damage and is easily blocked, and a fierce attack that hits harder but is slower and leaves you open, and only fierce attacks break enemy shields. Characters also have a ranged attack, a killing move for downed enemies, a parry, a knock back that clears nearby enemies, a jump back and a charged attack. Facing a horde with a fierce attack in hand is still worth trying today.
