Shadow of Mordor is one of the most sastifying games I've played in quite awhile. Yes the story gets a little confusing, yes the gameplay mechanics are borrowed from other games, but you play this game & get your 1st execution then none of that matters. The fighting in this game is by far the most fun I've had with a game in some time. I actually have had trouble moving the story forward cause it just so much fun to run around & pick fights with random capitans/warchiefs. Not to mention the plethora of side missions to do & collectibles to find.

I highly recommend this game to anyone considering getting it. Unless you absolutely hate 3rd person action games you will find this is a great game with tons of replay value. Don't fall for the it's Assassin's Creed/Batman with a LotR skin on it argument. While this game can be described that way, you'd be doing yourself a horrible disservice by passing it based on that. I can not understate just how much fun it is to play this game.

All in all IMO this one of the few games from last year that is actually worth full price, if it's on sale it is a must buy. You really can't wrong with this game & it will provide you with many hrs of gaming bliss.
