News::South China Morning Post: Middle-Earth Shadow of Mordor Review
"That all means Middle-Earth has an incredible memory. It knows that characters make up a great story, and rather than inundate the player with scripted development through endless cut-scenes, the narrative all plays out right there during the game and is specifically tailored to you. It won't matter if you're a Tolkien fan who has spent countless hours poring over the details of hobbits, elves, orcs and men, or just a gamer bored with beat-'em-up gaming's lack of consequences: Middle-Earth's blend of action-adventure and creative RPG elements make it the most exciting release so far this year. For now at least, and until it undoubtedly begins to inspire developers over the next few years, this is the one game to rule them all."

[Because we exported this stream to YouTube directly from our Twitch.TV channel, the last part is less than 4 minutes long. Here it is below.]
