Please don't shoot the Balrog in the knee, the last thing i need is that goof showing up in Whiterun in an ill fitting guard uniform giving me a hard time when i'm doing important Dark Brotherhood business.
I was thinking the same thing lol.
“I used to be a demonic servant of Morgoth the Lord of Darkness like you, but... wait, that is what you are, right?”
The enemy is responsible for the attack of the enemies.
but is THE enemy! i mean not any enemy, is the Shadow of Morgoth! haha
Best Quote!
This game is like that one Iron Maiden greatest hits cd, but doesn't have all of the best songs.
I was just remembering that. Fuck that.
Hraedir, Black Metal Elitist who gives a fuck about shitty music anyways.
Lustful Hamster Iron Maiden shitty? *triggered*
Eddie Hunter discs?
AGP imagine calling other people music taste shit while listening to juice WRLD and XXX Tentacion.
You can just tell Sean Astin REALLY hated taking the job for the game.
He was probably dissapointed when he realized he was the only one returning.
Lost Khajiit he was in Season 2 of Stranger Things
@Lost Khajiit How dare you forget the cinematic masterpiece Encino Man with 90s heavyweight Pauly Shore
Gonna be honest, there's something very mid-2000s about playing a Hobbit and doing menial chores (framed creatively to be tutorials) before the adventure.
Aragorn's errands is a better name xD
Damn... The Wii version looks kind of like the first Fable in a way
Ya, honestly the art style is kind of appealing. Well most of the time, a couple characters look real weird.
Yeah, Nintendo has never really been known for great graphics
Graphics aren't everything.
I thought same
“Lets go get Frodo’s shirt!” Got me there.
Better than his pants.
Bilbo*
"I use to be a Balrog, but then I took an arrow to the knee."
I was very close to making that joke in the video.
The Cantina
Then give him a heart already! Make him feel important!
I played this game so much when I was about 10 years old, and I love it. I haven't played it in a long time, but just seeing it makes me fall in love again, eventough most of it is probably just nostalgia
This game looks really nice for a Wii game. Great art style
I actually quite like the childlike, cartoonish vibe. It reminds me of the books
starting out with frodo gamgee is kinda adorable!... but probably not what you'd be hoping for when you picked "aragorn's quest"
You and I read different books then. I get what you're saying about the hobbit but in my mind's eye they took a more serious turn when LOTR started
Agreed. Well said I never thought of it like that but it does reind me of the books
Stryder Heap, Yeah when LOTR started it got a little more adult feeling as well but to me the books still seemed childish... I dont know why but they did for me.. But still you are right LOTR took a more adult approach
Of course, the tone became darker and more adult which I like but it is still quite comical and childlike throughout especially the likes of Tom Bombadill and the talking fox.
5:35 did you just insult lord of the rings conquest? The battlefront of the lord of the rings franchise?!
Haha yes I did.
I love Conquest, goodbye. Until tomorrow
The Cantina That game was awesome, the fuck is wrong with you?
I fucking love Conquest. My favorite part was near the end you play the alternate bad guy story and go to the Shire. Finally I got to be Sauron and IMMEDIATELY got picked up by a griffon (or whatever they're called) and killed... So I played the entire last battle as just some random joe cause the big bad got done in by an overside bird.
I actually really liked that game, sure I was a jag off who only played that rogue type character and exploited the fuck out of the 1 hit KO back stab and the near invincibility of the roll dodge...but still
I played this on the Wii and absolutely loved it! Just being part of the big battles was amazing, I think I played the battle at the gates of Mordor at least 10 times xD
But I understand that it is objectively not a great game, you have to really love the movies for this ^^
I actually kinda wanna play this now
Chainsaw Warrior It's kinda fun. Try it out.
It's basically a copy of Twilight Princess with Lord of the Rings slapped on it. The combat and gameplay is almost the same.
Haha ya your right, I didn't think about that.
Except Twilight Princess is enjoyable.
I noticed that just from watching the video lol.
I actually really like this game
GrahamTV how?
@@BaconSauce nostalgic, and isnt this game meant for kids? you people are bashing it like its MEANT to be an amazing game for adults
Herda Maarschalk I fucking loved this game when I was a kid but if I played it now it would probably be an awful experience
Yeah i liked it too as a kid.
3:24 this made me lol
Wow, it must make you really FEEL like Aragorn. Absolutely amazing. Been on a lil Cantina binge. That little noise plays in my head all the time now lately. "Bbrrumbrumbrrrdrrrdrrr" lol
From LotR games, Battle for the Middle-Earth series was the best.
part 1 was the best
*3:38** Hehehe, he said "Arwen, ride hard"...*
That last bit at the end. Almost JonTron-esque, Cantina. I’m enjoying watching your channel evolve!
Just stumbled across your channel and it’s great! I was cracking up most of this review.
”I’m afraid our enemies were behind this attack” is top tier writing
Sean Astin sounds like he’s falling asleep reading the script.
He probably was honestly.
It sounds like an impersonation. Is it really him?
@@StabStabStabStabby Probably not
so it should have been called...Hobbit doing menial chores and some of Aragorns greatest hits.
So glad I found this channel the other night. Great content man, definitely subscribed.
when elrond tells you "the enemy" is behind the attack he means The Enemy as in SAURON!! not a generic opponent. this is a title used numerous times even in the movies
Funnily enough when me and my brother played this game together we actually enjoyed it quite a bit.
Though it is pretty bad
Even a bad game can be fun with the right people.
Similar: Got one of those retro/miniature consoles for Xmas. Playing it later that day w/ my bro was fun as hell.. but bringing it home and plugging it in on a random Tuesday was a one-star experience!
I've played a bit of this with my brother, and it's hysterical. The inexpressive faces, awkward animations, and playing as Gandalf when the cutscenes insist he isn't there (our theory is Gandalf is Aragorn's imaginary friend) had me cracking up the entire time. Maybe I'm just easily amused.
I keep getting back to the Co-Op mode on occasion, because, weirdly
enough, it's one of the few LOTR games out there that lets you play as
Gandalf the Grey in a 3rd view adventure game.
There is the old Fellowship of the Ring from Vivendi for PS2, but that
version doesnt look too much like the movies version, and the overall
game is disappointing.
Most games that let you play as Gandalf only tend to focus on him as
Gandalf the White - also an iconic and decisive character, but far less
interesting in my opinion.
So I know I'm giving waaaaay to much credit to the devs but it feels like this is the exact story a man with PTSD would tell his kids of the war. Skipping over the part where a friend is killed brutally, saving villagers etc.
I remember as a kid all I had was a Wii and this. Wanting to play Skyrim so bad this was the closest I got at the time lmao
Funny you uploadet this while I was watching Lord of the rings.
Love your videos man keep em coming
”please take your horse” got me so good xD
God I don’t know what you mean this game is the greatest game I’ve ever seen it’s better than games like oblivion and fallout new Vegas this game is clearly 10/10 quality content
Haha
Bout ta argue with you. But then I realized it was a joke
Your videos are so freakin funny man. keep it up!
Do Two Worlds II next please!
Dude The Hobbit is a legitimately good game can’t believe you think it’s bad
The American Inqusitor The soundtrack is so good.
Mondo Shawan Definitely
I need a video of why he thinks it's bad. That game was my childhood.
It's been a while since I've played it, but I agree, it was one of my favorite games as a kid.
I think the reason people hated it is because there was no blocking in the combat....... but it’s still a stupid reason. Game was lit
Damn game devs have a thing against elf homes. In the first BFME, you have to defend Lothlorian against the Moria goblins chasing you.
You're videos are my new RUclips addiction
I got this lord of the rings-game as a christmas present from my parents because they know how much I love that franchise and even then I couldn't bring myself to play it more then three times...
War in the North is not far behind - the claptrap griffin(griffin in the Middle Earth uh-huh) gave me headaches, oh how glad I was when he got shot it in the end
Glad I found your channel through the dragon age 2 video you did, keep this up dude, I love people reviewing shitty games
Have you not heard of the DOS game for Fellowship?
Samwise was just getting senile and forgetting certain important bits.
I actually enjoyed LotR Conquest
When I first played Aragorn's Quest on the PSP as a child which didn't speak anything other than Polish, I didn't even realise the game I was playing was Lord of the Rings.
Sam does actually have a kid named Frodo though..
The reason Aragorn has to deal with all shit in Rivendel is because Elrond is riding him like mad and Aragorn has to do it since he is Elrond is his father-in-law.
Sure Aragorn would want to say "Deal with your own shit old fool", but then he wouldn't get super pretty waifu.
This game really makes you FEEL like you wasted ur money
War in the north daaamnnn the memories me and my brother have playing this game 24/7
I remember playing that game on the wii and i fucking loved it
Feels like Fable in LOTR.
“We have the rights to a great series about a large party of people who go on a quest together - lets make the game single player and just about one member!”
even though the game is a fucking mess, it's one of the most graphically impressive Wii games I've ever seen, lots of really nice lighting and post processing going on, and the artstyle isn't halfbad either
Why the hell was it marketed for PS2? It was released in 2010, when the PS3 had been out for years already. And PS2 was discontinued 3 years later, too.

I had so much fun playing this game at 9
How did they get Sean Astin to actually do this shit. I hope that paycheck bought him a new house.
Haha I know I almost mentioned that in the video that they actually got him for this.
Congratulations on the content btw. You have great comedic timing! :)
I used to be a terrifying Balrog, then I took an arrow to the knee.
Nice review mate. I personally had the ds-version of this game and I have played it way too much :D Just because lotr and I've had it for ages. Not a good game, but not so bad either.
I really wish there was a lotr game that was basically an elder scrolls game, where you could explore Middle Earth and stuff.
Why are both Aragorn and Gimli using shields? Aragorn wields his sword with both hands and Gimili uses a 2 handed axe.
May I request an Oblivion playthrough with FCOM superpack? Oblivion hardmode pretty much. Should be fun to watch ya rage. C:
I love the art style.
I dunno why Samwise has such a hard on for Frodo? Samwise was clearly the hero of the story all Frodo did was carry the ring.
Bro I get we all have personal tastes but bagging on Hobbit game! Step to far! That game was so good! The play style, the art style, everything about it was insane!
Do lord of the rings conquest please and I love your vids Ill be sending out your channel to my friends!
Thanks man!
What's really sad is that they actually got Sean Astin and John Rhys-Davies to voice their characters. And it has a very respectable voice acting cast.
NOOOOO, THIS GAME IS MY CHILDHOOD!
You really should play PSP version
- no hobbit gameplay
- road to Moria
- fight Ghosts
- actual action
- death of Boromir
- no side quests
I have this game on the DS, and I can confirm 100% that this version is way different. They're like two completely different games.
But I still enjoy playing it none of the less, but then again that could just be from nostalgic reasons.
What's wrong with Sam naming his son Frodo. If I'm not mistaken this is what he actually does in the books/films.
I can't explain it, but the thumbnail reminds me of Cinderella's sister, Doris, from Shrek 2
Love the video but I'm fairly sure 'the enemy' is used as a euphemism for Sauron in the books. The protagonists, especially the Elves, often refer to him as 'the enemy.'
I can look past the parts that don't line up with the films because it is being narrated by a guy telling kids a story. I can work with a flawed narrator. What I find weird, is that the developers decided to go with a character that didn't witness half the events around Aragon. They had two other hobit's that saw just about everything Aragon did.
I remember playing this game years ago (the same Wii version.) Me and my brother struggled with it so much -- not sure if you experienced this, but the game was buggy as HELL. I remember that we quit on the Balrog fight because we glitched between a door and could literally do nothing about it. What an amazing game.
Well, at least the whole Gimli and the drain part is true to the novel.
Oh my god! I forgot I played this! It was blocked from my mind.
Glad you getting hella more views been here since 1k
Thanks man!
Rivendell was attacked in the books
The PS3 version of Aragorns quest wasn’t half bad. Although, my memory’s of it are from when I was 8 years old, so what I remember might be different
I played it on the PS3 and Tbh I absolutely loved it. I always figured it'd be a nightmare to play with a Wii or PS3 Move controller, but the game felt great on the PS3, sure it's no shadow of Mordor but I honestly think it's a lot better than some people think. I think I should get it on PC sometime in the future to play it again
Do not compare The Hobbit to Two worlds! That genuinely hurt me on a spiritual level
I would like to see you playing Mount and Blade :)
Frodo frather.. ok i'm done.. nice video btw.. love u
"Oh, that's just a kid's imagination. That's dumb." Ctfu I had to subscribe after that comment
Haha
Aw man The Hobbit! I forgot about that game 😂 I actually loved that game so much on my PS2 tho it was pretty bad but still fun af
i got this game for birthday as a kid and legit cried because of how bad it was
Lord of the ring Gollum: hold my beer
can you please do a video on Fallout vs Elder Scrolls? Also great video.
DragonInferno99 Ω yeah I know but wanna see if fallout does anything better then Elder Scrolls
The DS verison of this game is still one of my favorite titles on the DS, but that's the DS, the bar isn't too high. I'm pretty suprised to see that the PS2 verison is the same game with better graphics. Why they didn't make it the Wii and PS3 verison with lowered graphics is beyond me. Btw, I recommend War in the North if you really want to play an awful LOTR game.
It bugs me so much that Aragorn is using a shield.
The ps2 version was the only ps2 game my local store had and it almost made me cry
To be honest, this sold me on wanting to try out the game. It looks like a bit of fun!
Sean Astin does movies on Netflix, maybe... he's cheaper than Viggo Mortinsen?
I played this game on the wii as a kid and loved it. But I haven‘t played it since then so I probably woudn‘t like it today
Still seeing this gives me total nostalgia
It kinda looks like a Fable game. It's not even badly made but some shitty game designer went out of its way to make it mediocre and ruine the efforts of the other people working on it.
I like the ds version because its the ps2 version but very pixelated. Its no masterpiece but when you play it on the ds it feels like an old arcade game.
Like runescape but a storyline. Changable powers, weapons, clothes that work as armor with perks, it just feels cool idk.
Good that I didn't ask my parents to buy me this shit and rather played Battle for Middle Earth II back then...
