The Lord of the Rings: War in the North




    Platform: X360, PC, PS3
    Genre: Action RPG 
    Publisher: Warner Bros. Interactive
    Developer: Snowblind Studios 
    Release Date: November 1, 2011 (America), November 2 (Australia), November 4 (Europe), November 25 (UK)


    On your journey in the North, you will have the opportunity to pick up a few side quests, talk to some of the NPCs, and do some other interesting stuff. A lot of the characters do have quite a lot to say, and some are even interesting to talk to, but there is little motivation to do so. This problem is compounded by the fact that you know next to nothing about the main characters of the game. In fact, there is not even a character bio summary on the character selection screen. Problems with the story aside, the rest of this game is pretty fantastic.


    Which brings me to the graphics: wow. They did a fantastic job of creating a visual delight here. The character models are fantastic, the animations are great, and the environments are stunning. A lot of games are pretty bland in the environment, you might catch some blurry textures on the walls or floors, or some muddled environment backgrounds, but not this time. Snowblind did a great job of capturing the mythos of the series, while also raising the bar for action RPGs in general.
