"It's different enough from Universal's title, which is an action-adventure title based on Tolkien's literary works, for gamers to warrant a look at both. But if this game's score indicates anything to you, you'll know which one to pick." Review by Douglass C. Perry with screen shots and overall score [8.3]. |

"When it comes to the graphical elements, this game is easily head-and-shoulders above others in the genre. From the spark of a parried attack, to the whirr of a blurred blade slashing through the air and a kick that knocks opponents back and off-balance so the killing blow can be struck, this game is a visual delight. The sound elements only add to the overall effect, and make The Two Towers a fantastic outing." Review by Michael Lafferty with overall score [9.8] and screen shots. |

"Due to the high level of collaboration between Stormfront, EA, and New Line Cinema, this title is an incredibly slick and well-rounded package. However, even without the extras, the game is simply so much fun to play that it's a title players are likely to come back to again and again just for a quick orc-hacking fix." Review by Matt Keil with score [5/5]. |

"However, action gamers or fans of solid gameplay should seriously pick up this game even if they don't like fantasy based upon the game mechanics and the technical skill demonstrated by EA in bringing this masterpiece from the literary page and the big screen over to the small screen." Review by Jeff 'Linkphreak' Haynes with overall rating [87%] and screen shots. |

"It's somewhat short (maybe five hours per character) and isn't the best action game you'll ever play, but it is the best action game based on The Lord of the Rings." Review by Benjamin Turner with score [75] and screen shots. |
