In the EA offices, there is a series of electronic clocks relentlessly ticking down to varius milestone deadlines for this project. Don't worry, no pressure. This game only has to live up to the hype of the final Peter Jackson movie (releasing around Christmas) -- a film which pull out all the stops in an effort to put the word "epic" to shame. Oh yeah, why don't you take the great gameplay and effort poured into your Two Towers vid and leave it in the dust? We see those clocks tick down to the hundredth of a second...
Although it may not appear that time is on the side of the development team, hard work and plent of good ideas are. THis time around, Gandalf, Frodo, Sam, and four secret characters join Aragorn, Legolas, and Gimli as playable heroes. Unlike Two Towers, however, the story progression is a lot less rigid. The game presents each storyline seperate, playable arcs. You can master Sam and Frodo's unique adventures and then go back and complete the game through the eyes of Aragorn as he traverses the Paths of the Dead and other completely different situations.
