User blog:The.Outsider/Middle-Earth: Shadow of Mordor

Hi guys! How are we all doing today? You may have noticed my happy tone. Well that's because I got an A on my English exam; just one mark of an A*... damn. Oh well, I'm still happy :)

Before you all start telling me off for making a blog about an unrelated game, I would just like to say how amazing I think this game looks. I don't know if any of you lot have heard of it, but I have literally just discovered it a few minutes ago & I have to say that this looks like the greatest game I have ever seen since Assassin's Creed & Dishonored. If you know me at all, you should understand how large a statement that is, as those are my two favourite franchises.

So, up to now you may be wondering what all the fuss is about & why I think it's better (just from my initial impressions) than AC & Dishonored. Well, that's quite simple really, it seems to combine AC & Dishonored together; with a little bit of the Batman Arkham series thrown in there for more epicosity (I'm looking at you Crim). It merges the movement of AC with the magic of Dishonored & the combat & stealth of Batman. If that's not the best combination ever, then I don't know what is. Oh, & to make it more awesome, it's set in the Lord of The Rings universe. I don't believe it is in the official canon, but it follows the same events - being set between The Hobbit & The Lord of The Rings. If you're not a fan of the movies & books then boo! Just kidding :)



Here is the link to the article I found...

Also, check out these details from wikipedia...

Keep in mind I'm just going from initial impressions, so this game might not be that good when it comes out. But I have high hopes that it will be awesome. What do you guys think? Do you agree with me about how good it looks? Did I mention it's an open-world game? :)

P.S. I might update this blog as I find more information. That is if people are interested.
