    Shadow of Mordor

    I'm not big into LOTR based games but this looks pretty interesting:

    http://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2014...dow-of-mordor/

    Heavy inspiration from the Assassin's Creed series, but with a Batman:Arkham series fighting style and a unique Nemesis system that basically configures your next missions.

    I'm pretty excited by this since it looks to combine some great mechanics from other games while introducing something new in a well established backstory.
    If we hit that bull's eye, the rest of the dominoes will fall like a house of cards. Checkmate.

    I've been waiting for it to be shown off more, but what has been shown looks fantastic. But so did Colonial Marines and we know how that turned out...

    Reviews are out. Scoring really high.

    No review yet from PC gamer but this shows how the game will look if you can run the max settings.

    This sucks. I was really anticipating being able to completely ignore this game lol. Now, I have to decide between Forza Horizon 2 and This.

    It came with the system I got a few weeks ago! I've only done a handful of races because I'm not the best at sim racers, but that is indeed my drivatar.
