It boasted advanced graphics for its day, as well as the use of the original film score and actors. In the main version ported to all major consoles, you’re allowed to choose Gimli, Legolas or Aragorn for each mission, and it’s possible to replay successful missions with the other two later on. It was released to coincide with the 2002 film of the same name, but actually covers events from the first film as well, starting with the siege of Barad-dûr depicted in the prologue to The Fellowship of the Ring.
