I choose to pretend all the non-canon games are happening at the same time, no matter how ridiculous. The second fellowship is fighting the eye of Sauron at the end of Shadow of War when Celebrimbor escapes the eye.
This was an era in which developers gave a crap about the game they made. It was their masterpiece, their art and their pride. Now it’s about making money
@@pauliethompson3922 Yes but it must surely be interpreted as normal swords alone, it required magic in the sword, it could be anything that gets inside the Rog and gets his magic there to kill it.
I became a master at this game on hardest difficulty when I was young. Save at least two arnor mushrooms for Gandalf and hadhod. Use alot of hadhods magic to unlock mountain shield for this battle. Also I loved the part when you're in the balrog pit and your on the other end of the corpse falling down the well as soon as the fellowship gets to Moria. So freaking cool!
I used Arnor shrooms on Hadhod so I could keep spamming Mountain Shield, Endure Flame. And also have Berethor use company resistance.. taunt the Rog with Hadhod, he would be immune to his fire attacks!
Theres so much weight behind every ability. I love this game, even if it starts to show its rushed development towards the end of the game this is still an amazing game.
I remember getting hit with pillar of wrath the first time, the slowmo effect was so cool and added so much weight to the ability! god i love this game.
I would love to have an open world Lord of the Rings game following the events of The Fellowship. Similar to this but if I want to go back to The Shire or other sections I can. Seeing Gandalf and the Balrog fighting on the bridge of Khazadum in game was amazing.
Fun fact: this game had co-op functionality where control of characters were divided up between 2 players where characters 1, 3, and 5 were player one, and player 2 would have characters 2, 4, and 6 with guest characters being used by both players in turns.
@@hunterrhoades1813 My younger brother and I played it co-up all the way and it was so much funn when we were kids 😁 Thinking maybe to at it again after how many years
Idrial has a few pieces of equipment that, when Gandalf casts enduring shadow she can become immune to pillar of wrath and inferno roar attacks. It's been a long time since I played and I don't remember if it also make immune to the ap drain from those attacks. Hadhod has a buckler and helmet that grants great fire resistance so his enduring flame move will grant him enough resist to be immune to flame sword and whip of fire.
Imagine if they made a game where you could play in all three ages and each age had Morgoth, and Sauron etc. Imagine the First age and the War of Wrath and being able to visit all the lands. Imagine visiting the Halls of Nargothorand. Imagine playing as Feanor and assailing Thangorodrim whilst being attacked by Ancalgon the Black, and Gothmog, Lord of Balrogs. Imagine being able to visit Tom Bombadil and taking him out of the Shire into the Black Lands. Imagine fighting as Earendil in the sky with the silmaril upon his brow. The Masters of gaming need to make a master game like this.
@@vstormvbringer76 I I it on my phone but after I beat the first part I couldn't go on to the second part is there any way to go on to the second part?
God this game was so insane, love that the final boss was just you whacking the literal eye of Sauron. 10/10

Oh man. This brings back memories.
I remember playing this game all the time when it first came out.
This was the best, underrated LOTR game ever.
4:54 I can hear my past self calling bullshit
Yeah that is one big target! xD
Funny thing is, I still play this game and I play it every summer from start to finish getting all the moves for every character
God this game was so much fun, even if the enemy variation was lacking.
game was way beyond its timeeeee. remaster for pc please
Wow there are some decently animated particle systems on the Balrog here. The developers clearly gave a fuck.
This was an era in which developers gave a crap about the game they made. It was their masterpiece, their art and their pride. Now it’s about making money
The sound design is gorgeous as well.
@@jruth77they didn't have online systems to update the game over and over.
@jruth77 this was EA Redwood Shores (which became Visceral)
"Do as i say swords are no more use here". Kills balrog with a sword.
XD
That was a special sword imbued with magical lightning and who knows what other spells that the angel Gandalf had cast
@@Dante-vf4sd but what did he use???
@@pauliethompson3922 Yes but it must surely be interpreted as normal swords alone, it required magic in the sword, it could be anything that gets inside the Rog and gets his magic there to kill it.
@@Dante-vf4sd how can you kill a balrog its a miar
I thought you were like”Where’s Frodo and his other Friendly Companions?”
Loved evil mode where you got to play the balrog for this mission was super satisfying getting to be the boss for a change xD
This game's side story seems to be better than Amazon's bullshit.

Yeah this game was super cool and looked realistic at the time.
if you have aura of the valar then it’s near impossible to lose any fight
I used Arnor shrooms on Hadhod so I could keep spamming Mountain Shield, Endure Flame. And also have Berethor use company resistance.. taunt the Rog with Hadhod, he would be immune to his fire attacks!
When i was young, i went to a camp that had this very game.
The Balrog STILL terrifies me!
it was one of the most photorealistic game at the time.
Theres so much weight behind every ability. I love this game, even if it starts to show its rushed development towards the end of the game this is still an amazing game.
*BALROG: ROARS HOLDING HIS SWORD HIGH INTO THE AIR*
*Gandalf: *Stands and takes it**

A perfect franchise for an j-rpg type game
Simply drain the Balrog of its AP and then he can only do 1 attack per person. EZ.
I would love to have an open world Lord of the Rings game following the events of The Fellowship. Similar to this but if I want to go back to The Shire or other sections I can. Seeing Gandalf and the Balrog fighting on the bridge of Khazadum in game was amazing.
i just can't believe i didn't play this game... looks pretty good actually
I can't believe you didn't. Had super fun with it!
Yes yes?
This game was so good. Remember getting stuck on this fight and beating it years later as an adult.
It was difficult since only Gandalf could make a dent in that fell creature.
Woof that took waaaay longer than it needed too lol
XD
YOU SHALL NOT PASS! 17:58
That 60FPS so smooooth !! :D I know it's on emulator but for which console? :)
Btw this is one of the most epic moments in the game :)
Played on me friend's pc. I think he was using dolphin emulator.
Hint yes.

@@hunterrhoades1813 They should make a sequel for next gen. It'll be awesome!
@@hunterrhoades1813 My younger brother and I played it co-up all the way and it was so much funn when we were kids 😁
Thinking maybe to at it again after how many years
This is badass . Damn I wanted to play this in on Xbox one but it's not backwards compatible.
I never could complete 100% of this game. I assumed if I did, it would unlock an ending cut scene.
Looking back this balrog boss fight is way cooler than shadow of war's i love the game but this just seems more awesome and that balrog roar 2:29
I love this shit and DEMAND MORE!!!!
i gave up on emulators. You'll get hacked the moment to post it now.
@@vstormvbringer76 Welp shit
O Senhor dis aneis finalfantasy sombrio
This is literally Final Fantasy 10 how did this game not get copyright slashes?
huh. It's super fun. They can copy all they want.
@@vstormvbringer76 I guess. Can you summon Eagles or dragons in this game?
@@MarEXksz Played a long time ago. I think there were. Dragon Calling or something.
@MarEXksz Spirit of Gwaihir is a Perfect Mode ability, summons the eagle to attack all foes.
I gotta get the GC version, the ps2 version runs like a slideshow, especially the PAL version
How did you make this game go 60 FPS? It's my all-time favourite game!
can't rermember. i think it was on an emulator
@@vstormvbringer76 ah. this just looks so SWEET. and i have it on PCSX2.0 emu as well but YOURS runs WAY better!
PS2 or Xbox emulation?
@@OMGtheykilledKenny42 it was dolphin i think
@@OMGtheykilledKenny42 sry can't rermember long time ago

I remember grinding so much for this fight!! Good times!!

@@vstormvbringer76 i tried every strategy and still lost
enduring shadows and Enduring flame make it a cake walk. also equipping the right gear that resist flame and shadow helps a lot.

That would be great. This honestly has to be my favourite game ever
fucking love this game

God bless everyone and have a good day.
I need a remastered of it on ps4
No.
To play?
To play the game? PlayStation 2, Xbox, GameCube. You'll have to use emulators now.
@@vstormvbringer76 I I it on my phone but after I beat the first part I couldn't go on to the second part is there any way to go on to the second part?
@@DanielGarcia-lr6vr Never played on the phone sorry.
Xbox version works on the Xbox 360, with some minor graphical glitches. Not game breaking tho.
Balrog reminds me of Lucifer
@.@ the real one?
Yeah the actual lucifer Is that him in the game
@@Mr.ZionRoss What? You've seen the actual Lucifer? That is Balrog in the game. Lord of the Rings game.
@@vstormvbringer76 oh well I’m mean balrog Does look like lucifer but that’s it
@@Mr.ZionRoss Hey tell me when did you see Lucifer that is interesting not that i'd want to see him mind you. I'd rather be with the light side lol.
Whoa whoa whooA huh.
Is this the one on PS2?
i think so
what the hell. is this final fantasy ?
Lord of the Rings with FInal Fantasy's gameplay. It was a very enjoyable game.
Conditional Turn-based RPG just like FFX.
15 minute battle is wack lol but its probably the strongest boss eh?
Played this a loooong time ago. It was one of the coolest boss in the game that's for sure. Someone else probably posted the end boss.
Actually no, not that hard and can be killed a lot quicker.
A Balrog of Morgoth
What did you say?
Who got it, got it
Jack dos diamantes
Ookay?

It was an old game for the consoles. You can still play it using emulators.
