Lord of the Rings: The Fellowhip of the Ring was released on the PS2 platform in 2002. It was "the Official Game" and was distributed by Surreal Software known for some of their Legend of Zelda games. This LOTR version starts with Gandalf first arriving in the shire and ends with the destruction of the 'one ring' in Mount Doom. As a fan of the books and movies I purchased the game hoping for an adult RPG but was somewhat disappointed with the purchase. The graphics are pretty good and some of the story lines are interesting, however, the gameplay is very simple. To an experienced gamer this release will be easy to beat and holds little replay value. The sound and weak voice overs, not done by the movie's actors, were also forgettable. LOTR Fellowhip really shows it's age and the PS2's limitations. LOTR Fellowship will be attractive to hard core LOTR fans but few others. It's best suited for beginning level gamers or children. As I stated earlier some of the story lines like the barrow downs and Tom Bombadil were interesting to see but others just seem to go on forever. For a better PS2 LOTR game try Lord of the Rings: The Third Age. Great graphics, movie character voice overs, and a fast paced story line make this a game that still holds up today against many of the PS3 releases.Read full review
I love this game so much! I bought another system to play this game. It is one of my favorite games. It is an epic journey to destroy the ring!

Fresh game I’ve never played yet. Game seems to be a bit intriguing, just the game play its self. Quite a bit like the Harry Potter game I was just playing but without the second player pc or player

The game is quite good in every way, except it is not a good idea to allow anyone at least under 13 in my book to play it, as it pretty much is nothing but monsters and violence in a killing frenzy. We made the mistake of getting it for our young grandson and he played it every day for weeks and weeks until he beat it, but at times he would literally be shaking in fear! When I noticed this I started working on getting rid of them, which took me awhile, but now I only allow the E rated games in the house and it's been alot better. One day also while playing he got very violent with his little brother, and that was the final straw for me. Since all these games are no longer part of his repertoire he has been much more pleasant to be around, and even he now will tell you, that he's glad he's not playing them anymore. the games he has are still challenging and most all of them still do have some level of violence but not the graphic bloody kind in the lord of the rings games. The older kids will thoroughly enjoy them i am sure, they are quite difficult.Read full review
