- My favorite action game of the last decade and its excellent DLC is now 91% off in this sale - 13 February 2026
Tie-in games for movies and books typically mess with the canon and tarnish the lore of a well-respected franchise, and admittedly, Middle-earth: Shadow of War completely demolishes The Lord of the Rings' history. However, it does so in such a chaotic and interesting way, alongside fantastic gameplay mechanics, which make it one of my favorite games of all time. Right now, the full experience is under $6, and in all honesty, that's well worth it even if you somehow aren't familiar with Tolkien's iconic series. Read the rest of the story...

- Shadow Of Mordor's nemesis system is patented, which sucks - 29 January 2021
Monolith's Lord Of The Rings games Middle-Earth: Shadow Of Mordor and Shadow Of War are fun action stealth 'em ups that deserve praise just for their combat. What really makes both worth mention though is the nemesis system that turns procedurally generated baddies into your own personal antagonists the more you encounter them. Why haven't more developers tried their own take on the nemesis system in the last six years? Because Warner Bros. patented it, turns out. That sucks. Read more
- Have you played Middle-earth: Shadow Of War? - 6 April 2020
Have You Played? is an endless stream of game retrospectives. One a day, every day, perhaps for all time. With Middle-earth: Shadow Of Mordor, I thought, “This is it. They’ve perfected Arkham-style combat. It can’t get better than this.” With Middle-earth: Shadow Of War , I realised how mistaken I’d been. (more…)
