I feel like the odd man out. Conceptually, Conquest was everything I ever wanted: love LotR, loved the original Battlefront games. But the ultimate product just didn't do it for me 😞
So glad you mentioned “War in the North”, definitely needs a revival. I mean hell, it’s too bad Monolith moved on, cause it would look great in the Firebird engine
It was THE best 7/10 game I've ever played. Wasn't amazing, but goddamn it was fun, lore accurate and it had multiplayer. I'm still mad how I lent my disc to a friend and he lost it.
Favorite thing about that game was how it spanned across various areas of Middle Earth. I want more of that! Also the coop. Being able to play with a friend was just awesome.
One of my favorite things about two towers and return of the king was how the movie clips would transition to in game graphics. It blew my mind as a kid.
Just made a comment on how I was amazed with Gandalf riding down helms deep then going to in game cutscene for the first mission. Mind was blown as a kid. Lol
I remember watching my dad play two towers growing up!! We would take turns, him doing aragorn levels, then I would pick up the controller and do the legolas levels. Little did I know, he was using me to grind through the story mode to unlock isildur!
The third age was the only party and turn-based game I played up until P5R. I played loads of party-based games like dragon age, loads of turn based games like Pokemon, but TTA was the only one I played that combined them, it was a weird revelation
@@DraculaTepes420 no the game concept is not the same. The gba version is a tactics game akin to Final Fantasy Tactics, the home console versions are a JRPG similar to FFX.
Return of the king was my favourite. I completed every mission and the 2 extra missions where there’s a rock in the middle of map and you run around it killing waves of enemies that get tougher every wave. It was so addictive back then. Would love to see it in updated graphics and on new gen. Game developers were just so loyal to making a fun game back then. Rather than just making cash cows as to what we see today
As a kid I got so mad at certain levels in the two towers and return of the king lol. They should bring back all those games through remasters, conquest included.
Seeing that Third Age GBA footage really took me back! I loved it so much, even though I was a little kid at the moment who didn't fully grasp the game :p
I played all the way into the mines of Moria without knowing you could upgrade the characters or equip better equipment when I was a kid. Never played an RPG before so I didn't know
When I was but a boy me and my uncle got the Return of the King game, because it was released a week or 2 before the movie, and it was so exciting to see some of the scenes from the movie before it came out. It is a memory and feeling I will never forget.
The Hobbit game is a good one. It's silly at times due to its target audience, but it's more book accurate than the films. There are a few expanded additions and it's mostly to take advantage of the settings all over the company's journey.
@BATS2288 I agree. The Hobbit was definitely fun for the time. But tbh, a lot games looked better to me when I was young. However, I loved how colorful the game looked.
Love these games. Star Wars had some solid ones in the catalogue, but most every LotR game was gold (RotK, Middle Earth, Third Age especially). This channel's a great way to revisit some of these gems (especially under-appreciated entries, like Conquest and War in the North). By and large, media properties were fascinating back then because the books, movies, and games would flow together and create a level of world-building and intricacy that was greater than the sum of its parts. Great stuff pal!
Conquest was severely underrated. It was the spiritual successor to the original Battlefront games and despite it being a little odd in some areas, it captured the feel of the LOTR movies and was one of the most fun games I ever played on that console generation. I’m still sad that it was Pandemic studio’s swan song and they shut down not long afterwards.
The beauty about this game was the film scenes were a teaser and extended edition cut. The films weren’t even out yet and you could watch parts if the film. I remember playing the intro and stopping because I didn’t want to spoil all of the film scenes!
@@knuckalar you’re probably right. Or EA will just squash the fan-made right before it’s released. I hope not though. Either way I’ll donate a couple more times to help move things along!
War in the North and Conquest were my favorite games for awhile there I loved Conquest, and even though it had a little bit of jank to it, I still played it a lot of the time. One of my favorite things about it was the ragdoll effect and how it was applied to almost everything if you could play as it and it has some of the funniest things I've seen in a game. Especially with the hero characters. There's something about Gimli getting sent flying and ragdolling after being killed that just never gets old I like to imagine how it would be if something similar was made today and what would be added. I do know there's an indie dev team that's working on a remake of the game so I really hope everything goes well for them.
The Return of the King was that game I will always go back if I have someone to play with. As for The Third Age, the simple fact that you could explore Moria and Helm's Deep is enough to convince me that this game is one of the best ever made. It's nothing new today since you can do the same in today's games (like Lotro) but back then it was unique. It's sad that character development was poor but it's still a sick game.
The arcade games from the '90s were amazing. Sidescrolling beat em ups with different classes, huge colorful sprites, and RPG elements like level up, stronger weapons and unlockable skills. Super addicting.
Getting The Two Towers in Nov 02 and Return of the King in Nov 03 having actual clips of the movie before they were out was so incredible. My brother and I would replay levels just for the clips. Back then there was on RUclips and with dial up Internet it took awhile to watch a movie trailer
@@asavapowell7480it’s only easy as long as you’re raising your characters right and not trying hard to speed run it. Otherwise, you’re in for a rough time
Man, these games were my childhood. I loved the Southern Gate from Return of the King. Wave after wave of enemy with no end in sight. My friend and I played the absolute crap out of these games growing up. The Third Age is such an underrated game. One of the best RPGs of the 2000s. The War in the North wasn’t really given a chance by a lot of people despite it being a solid experience with great gameplay.
Third Age and Battle for Middle Earth were always the best LOTR games for me. I never wanted to play as the established known characters, I've always preferred to play as a nameless character within the TOLKIEN lore. I guess the idea of starting my own adventure or building my own army within in Earth was what excited me more. The story of Frodo and the fellowship has already been done, I wanted my own adventure.
i loved The Third Age back in my childhood days, i have so much beautiful memorys with it, and the summer i spend inside with it because of a surgery i had back then and this game, and the other Lord of the Ring games saved this summer for me. You gave me a Memory, of times when Videogames where made with passion.
i cant remember exactly which game it was but myself and my older brother use to play the 2 player campaign mode or whatever it was , it was so fun . i use to always choose legalis
this makes shed tear seeing a couple games in here that our computer couldnt run. Amongst the limited number of games we had, they just sat on the shelf collecting dust.
Return of the King was absolutely goddamn masterful in terms of its levels and how much fun the fighting was. The weight of the swords, the bow/arrow range attacks the BADASS Parry animations! Ugh return of the king was so goddamn fun.
Eragon is a series of dragon centric ya novels from the mid 2000s written by Chris paloni. They were written as the lotr hype was at its hype. So yeah people confuse them.
@@THENEVERDEADIV Completely disagree. The other way around. Why do people hate the movie so much? Just because it Change things doesn’t mean it’s bad. Honestly, with the exception of the were cat, I do not miss a single thing That they changed/left out of the movie. Honestly, such a blessing that they changed things the way they did.
Really miss these days of gaming where your guaranteed a good game 7 times out of 10 at least. Wish these times would come back. Compared to today it takes years to make a game, buggy launches and plenty of delays.
Yeah I actually just got lord of the rings conquest from there recently cos I’ve never been able to play any of the lord of the rings games (besides shadow of Mordor and war) because of them all being on last gen consoles
I remember playing this when i was a kid. Loved and love the Tolkien lore, and these games were awesome, as where the books. Got heavily invested in Lord of the Rings stuff because of them. Great stuff Matty
I wish the battle for middle Earth games would get a revival. I have so many fond memories playing through them. And the third age!!! My goodness I spent some time playing that as a youngling. I didn’t really understand how to play an RPG the first time I played it. I got stuck fighting the balrog for the first time as I didn’t have the revive spell on my elf. But I was so in love with it, I spent the learning the mechanics and really fell in love with gaming because of it.
Ive been remembering these games lately. The two towers and return of the king games were fantastic. Some of the best movie games even to this day imo.
There is one LOTR game I remember playing with my grandpa. I cannot remember the title but I remember it being a more adventurous game. All I can really remember is running around a plains land and fighting wargs.
War in the North is one of the few gamwa that I've platinumed. It was basically like the old movie games with online play, with heavy replay value for loot and gear. It was awesome.
Ohh man the times that made me love gaming. Playing Age of empires with my dad, watching movies and going to the lan house to play lotr games. There were a lot of gems from lotr, i remember one similar to the official movie games that were in chapters. Also one of them i really want to play again, a RTS age of mythology style. Still remember to this day summoning a horde of balrogs to destroy rohan's capital, amazing
I loved Return of the King, I remember getting it for Christmas from my brother, I might have to get out my Xbox and play it again. Never played Conquest but always wanted to. Thanks for the video, some great games in here!
my cousin and i would play the return of the king together when we went to her house. i was always legolas and she was aragorn and it was some of the fondest memories i have from that time in my life
Hey, Matty! Can you talk about the Hobbit game that came out in 2003? That game was a big one from my childhood, and I still go back and play it often. Keep up the good work, I'm loving these videos! :)
This video really touched my heart man. I felt that massive nostalgic feel and longing for my childhood back when you talked about third age and conquest. Ya got me bro 😂
The Third Age is a game that I come back to time and again. There's just something about it that is special and timeless to me. The same can be said of Return of The King, Jaws Unleashed, Jedi Academy, Peter Jackson's King Kong, and KOTOR 2.
Battle for Middle Earth 1 and 2+ the expansion for 2 we're my favorite games growing up. I still got the physical PC games from my childhood with the boxes and everything ^^
I played third age until I got stuck in some looping cave system. Then I forgot to go back, and it's been like three consoles. This video is a trip, I feel like I played bits of all of these at one house or another.
Lord of the rings the third age for GBA is one of my favorite handheld tactical games ever! I completed it with every character, good and evil several times!
Conquest and The Third age were so dope as a kid, I played the third age but never beat it I’d just play the first chapter unlock the orca then restart after I got bored. But the amount of hours spent was a joke. Thanks for the bid the nostalgia alone in this video for me is enough to leave a like!
The Two towers and return of the king games are so well done imo bro. Especially with the amount of fan service put in for fans of the movies. Also the gameplay is surprisingly good with the hack n slash gameplay and the set pieces you play thru. Slap on some coop too and you got a complete package game 🔥👍🏼
I'm an 80s/90s kid and my introduction to LOTR was the Ralph Bakshi movie. My uncle showed it to me when I was 12 or 13 and I've been a Tolkien fan ever since.

Two Towers and Return of the King were incredible games, I wish they were available on current gen.
Ran thru these games weekly in the rentals loved em
been getting into them on the steam deck , I owned them on GameCube
Da fehlen die nötigen Lizenzen um diese grandiosen Spiele auf die aktuellen Konsolen zu bringen.
The necessary licenses are missing for this
100% agree i played them 2 death
Licensing hell
Oh man Conquest was the one, it was the pinnacle. I spent so many nights playing that game and its as cherished as Battlefront.
Exactly, was literally LOTR battlefront and easily the best LOTR game. if the servers were still online people would still play that to this day
I loved this game so much as a kid, it’s a shame that it’s almost impossible to find a copy these days
Conquest is SOOOO Underrated. Imagine if we got an updated version with hero vs villains with the similar mechanics as the newer battlefront game
I feel like the odd man out. Conceptually, Conquest was everything I ever wanted: love LotR, loved the original Battlefront games. But the ultimate product just didn't do it for me 😞
That was like literally worst one bro lol…
Third Age might be one of the most underrated games of all time, and one of the best RPGs on the GameCube. Loved it. Evil Mode is sick too.
Yeah I remember having it when I was young and thinking it was rubbish because it wasn't like other games I do look back at that with regret
the end was dumb though
Literally my favorite LOTR game
I’m playing it right now. So fun!

I'd love even a remaster of The Two Towers and The Return Of The King.

AragoRn is correct. EA had the license to make games based on the movies. And some other company had the license to make them based on the books.
Isn’t it pronounced both ways in the movies?

Just started reading these books and they are my favorite ones ever, I love lord of the rings just a great franchise
That’s pretty awesome I think the books do some things better than the movies tbh
The Third Age is a game that I come back to time and again. There's just something about it that is special and timeless to me. The same can be said of Return of The King, Jaws Unleashed, Jedi Academy, Peter Jackson's King Kong, and KOTOR 2.
0:56 Definitely a cause to celebrate--the new show flopped, which is the good ending.
A friend of mine used to mock me for playing The Third Age on the GBA but I love it and still play it.
Two towers was my favorite game back in the day I actually think it’s more fun nowadays! Takes me back to a simpler gaming days!
My best mate and I did an all nighter once playing the Return of the King game together and 100% the game. It's one of my personal favourites
oh my goodness i remember absolutely loving lord of the rings the third age!
It's called refined taste
Realy enjoyed this , keep up the good work
Battle for Middle Earth 1 and 2+ the expansion for 2 we're my favorite games growing up. I still got the physical PC games from my childhood with the boxes and everything ^^
Loved playing some of these as a kid this brings back memories. The Return of the King on PS2 was my favourite.
The fact someone else remembered the baseball stadium from MOH Rising Sun brings warmth to my heart!
I played third age until I got stuck in some looping cave system. Then I forgot to go back, and it's been like three consoles. This video is a trip, I feel like I played bits of all of these at one house or another.
The Fellowship of the Ring rear box art of Aragorn, Gandalf, Frodo definitely looks like the portraits from Icewind Dale 2.
Lord of the rings the third age for GBA is one of my favorite handheld tactical games ever! I completed it with every character, good and evil several times!
Conquest and The Third age were so dope as a kid, I played the third age but never beat it I’d just play the first chapter unlock the orca then restart after I got bored. But the amount of hours spent was a joke. Thanks for the bid the nostalgia alone in this video for me is enough to leave a like!
The Two towers and return of the king games are so well done imo bro. Especially with the amount of fan service put in for fans of the movies. Also the gameplay is surprisingly good with the hack n slash gameplay and the set pieces you play thru. Slap on some coop too and you got a complete package game 🔥👍🏼
I'm an 80s/90s kid and my introduction to LOTR was the Ralph Bakshi movie. My uncle showed it to me when I was 12 or 13 and I've been a Tolkien fan ever since.
