The editors liked
TDP and power draw is almost unbelievable at 150W for such a high-performance GPU
Using only one 8-pin PCIe cable
In contrast the Fury X requires two 8-pin cables
Overclockability is very good so far – GPU Boost 3.0 works with the Precision X overcloc
Great animations. Good voice acting
And dialogue reminiscent of Peter Jackson's Lord of the Rings movies. Nemesis System really builds Orcish Nemeses.
Intriguing procedurally-generated enemies
Obvious love for Tolkien's lore
Open world that feels aliv
Nemesis system personalizes gamepla
Story respects Tolkien mytho
Memorable visuals and sound

The editors didn't like
Repetitive
Shallow combat system. Bland story. Forced
Boring
Instant-fail stealth missions. Small and empty for an open world. Redundant power-ups and perks. Unskippable cutscenes interrupt combat
Abstract: Developer: Monolith Publisher:Warner Bros Platforms: PC, Xbox One, PS4, PS3, X360 Version Reviewed: PC I hate Glûk Jitters. I despise his stupid, smug little uruk face more than any enemy in a game I can remember. It all started when he began turning up ...
Solid open-world gameplay, Challenging, counter-heavy combat, The brilliant nemesis system, Good use of the license
Mordor isn't known for scenic beauty, Getting overwhelmed can be frustrating
It sounds like an unholy Middle Earth mash-up of Arkham City and Assassin's Creed, but the Nemesis system helps turn Shadow of Mordor into something far more entertaining. With good, demanding combat, excellent stealth and enemies worth slaying it's more...
Nemesis System is revelatory, Open world is packed with activities, Scripted plot promises to make Tolkien lore-lovers smile wide-open
Player-scripted story and actual plot at odds during the climax, Questionable “escape” design breaks the illusion, Clunky traversal and combat controls
Abstract: Middle-Earth: Shadow of Mordor, however, begins where most other Lord of the Rings games meet their end. When the Ranger Talion and his family are slaughtered by uruks under Sauron's command at the Black Gate, he is resurrected and his body bound to wande...
Nemesis System lets you create a worthy foe, Awesome Mounts, Fun Gameplay that lets you choose your own play style
Weak Boss Fights in main quest line, Lots of QTEs, Forgettable OST
Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor has really brilliant mechanics that will make you want to lose yourself playing in its open world rather than facing its weak story bosses.9JRR Tolkien Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor Monolith PC PS3 ps4 Steam WB Games XBOX ...
The Nemesis system is a fantastic piece of tech, and I can't wait to see both what Monolith does with it next and what other open-world games accomplish with the inevitable rip-offs of this system.But at the end of the day, it feels less like the Nemesis ...
Combat system, similar to Batman Arkham series, Character progression on skills, Story background, Gollum's appearance, Captain and Warchief system
Minimal customization
If someone asks you where are you headed tonight. Tell them you are headed to Mordor! This game is just that awesome; although short, you could play it over and over again with he captain and warchief system. On the said system, you'll meet a lot of new U...

Great combat, Enemy progression, Losing matters, Mind control
Unexciting campaign missions
Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor stands out from other open-world action games by putting a great new layer on top of the trail that Batman blazed. I was surprised at how well it integrates its excellent combat with rewarding feedback and progression not ju...
