Great single player game, but not designed for two-player mode

Lego The Lord of the Rings (video game)

Customer Review

My praise goes to the first really well-done extremely detail diversity of this game! The "free world" is huge and covers all regions of the known trilogy. As is known from all other LEGO games, this also represents a trivialized form of story, in which one (at least in the story mode) continuously plays a different character.

The reason why I can only give 4 stars, is a failure to execute the two-player mode!
In my view, makes this game more fun when you play it together with another person, but this probably is not offensichlich wanted.
To give short examples:
- Player 2 smashes with Gimli a stone under which a web is for fishing. After receiving the Angel he gets down to work. Player 1 enters at this moment, the blacksmith and a short section of the screen displays the entry in full screen. After the image section is finished, the image is divided again. Player 2 must now watch as the stone has as if by magic reassembled and he now regularly (where he loses money every time) plunges into nothingness. This was, unfortunately, more often!
- The game locks up
- There were 11 out of 10 treasure chests found (!)

I played the game on the Xbox, so I do not want to mention that the hanging has not necessarily emulate something with the game. But otherwise they do not hang up, this assumption is very close.
