Can we talk about the video games in here?

[Knight of Gondor]

I have the PC RotK game on my laptop, and I was curious if discussions were allowed in here (or in another, more appropriate folder? This was my best guess) back and forth about the video games?

[Knight of Gondor]

I guess not?

I have the PC version, and I wondered how different it was from all those other Playstation and XBox, Gamecube, etc. Also, how do you defeat Gollum in the Cracks of Doom? At least, on co-op, I've never been able to finish it.

I don't see why not. There are a number of other threads on the LotR videogames. If you're interested, try searching the forums for "video game".

Sorry, though. I can't answer your questions as I don't have this game.

to defeat gollum, go to the edge of the cliff and parry his attacks as much as you can...you won't fall off the cliff so don't worry...wait for gollum to get ready to jump on you...once he does this, quickly move out of the way..he should be the one standing on the ledge now..then use your physical attack to push him off the ledge..do your finishing move when he falls and hangs on the ledge..keep repeating this until you beat him...

I don't think there is any difference. I have the PS2 vesion, but I have never played it on PC, so I wouldn't know.

Thr graphics are notably cleaner on PC -- and this is usual in all games with different platforms (only XBOX is improving clean pixel graphics).

As for question number two -- Iauralphion graciously provided an answer.

I've defeated Gollum on single mode. It's hard. Really, you have to wait until the game decides to make him lose his balance. When he gets near the edge and then waves his arms, off-balance, THAT'S the only time you can use physical attack to knock him off.

The problem is, he simply WILL NOT lose his balance in co-op mode! We've tried over and over, because it would be fun to play the two Palantir levels combo, but we can't get through Gollum! Not to mention using cheat codes in combo games. Gollum refuses to fall off. Is this just a game glitch on my part?

Hehe not a glitch Knight -- just Gollum

Stand near the edge and wait until he jumps at you. Just keep trying and you'll get it.
