    Fun Fact: When I was in my early teens, my brother signed me up for one of those lotteries the LEGO company occasionally ran where, if your name got drawn they would fly you out to California to work for them as a consultant. My brother did not tell me that he had done this. Hilariously, and absurdly, my name got drawn and they called me up *while I was playing this very game* . Unfortunately I was a couple years too young to actually accept, but it was one of the weirdest things that's ever happened to me.

    Seems like he didn't play the bonus levels where you run a gauntlet trying to climb Saruman's tower and have to beat up Christopher Lee on the twentieth floor. Now that was truly rage inducing cause if you died to Saruman you had to do it all over again. Your reward for beating it on all three characters was to unlock Isildur(the guy from the tutorial who is just an Aragorn reskin) and then if you beat the tower with him you got a bunch of cheat codes but by that point you had done everything so it wasn't much of a reward. I think you had to get perfects on all the levels for them to unlock or something.

      I never understood these games that give you cheat codes after you clear some insane challenge. In Dead Rising you had to play the game for 10 hours straight in the survival mode to get the Laser sword at that point you wouldn't want anything to do with the game.

      I understand the point of the achievement, what I don't understand is giving the player some crazy advantage after completing an nearly impossible task. Like, you're already good enough to clear Resident Evil 1 with a knife, why would you want an infinite Rocket Launcher at this point?

The Rocket Launcher in RE1 was for fun, if you have to ask why you would want an infinite rocket launcher... it was so you can shoot infinite rockets in a game you have replayed like 20 times and plan to continue replaying.

    That Hornburg Courtyard scene where Jerma needs to defend the gate really starts looking like Aragorn is just some errand boy having to shop for groceries while babysitting Legolas. He's just running from place to place, having to do one thing at a time on a list. Instead of looking like a battle for good, it just looks like some guy having a ton of chores he needs to get done before his parents get home.
