Isildur : Whose Footsteps Are Frodo And Sam On?

Talion manages to defeat isildur, but upon seeing his memories of how he was corrupted by the one ring, decides to destroy isildur and release his spirit rather than dominate him. celebrimbor remarks angrily that isildur would have been a valuable asset to their cause, leading talion to realize that celebrimbor wishes to replace sauron by dominating him rather than destroying him. talion refuses to follow celebrimbor's orders any more, causing the wraith to abandon him and possess eltariel instead.

I would recommend this game to anyone who likes lord of the rings!also, the title is a little misleading; the game doesn't take place just during the two towers plot, in fact you play out scenes from the first film as well, and the very first scene you play is actually as isildur fighting with the last alliance of elves and men. both scary and breathtaking when cgi sauron turns into the live action version of himself!based entirely on the film, unlike the fellowship of the ring game, this game perfectly blends gaming with film footage, and is a joy to play. it is never boring, and each new level advances you significantly through the story.as for the characters, aragorn is the main one here; you can only play him to fight the nazgul at weathertop (they are scary, but it's great when you set them all on fire!)

Aragorn used a palantír--a seeing stone--to reveal himself to sauron as the heir of isildur. he did this to distract sauron's attention from frodo, who was approaching mordor, and to draw sauron's forces out of mordor. aragorn's action caused sauron to launch his assault on the city of minas tirith prematurely.

In the end, sauron himself came out. perhaps the director had a problem envisioning what kind of battle must have transpired, but the greatest of the alliance battled sauron up the slopes of mount doom, the volcano which forged the one ring - elendil, isildur, elrond among them. the director belittled the magnitude of the battle by having isildur make a lucky swipe with a sword that cut off sauron's fingers, thus separating him from the ring and making victory possible.
