Shadow of Mordor takes the best elements of Assassin's Creed and the Arkham Franchise.
Flying leaps to execute an Uruk, to Combos and Takedowns mark the combat.
The Basic Story revolves around Talion, a Ranger of Gondor hunting down one of Sauron's Lieutenants.
The Combat is great, the combo flows very well, the combat is much more forgiving than that of the Arkham Franchise.
The Story is the game's only weak point. There is little to no character development, and the Story, while short and often disjointed, definitely draws you in.
Over all 8.5/10 A worthy addition to the ranks of games Based on Tolkien's Lore
Very Good
