Just like in Fellowship of the Ring, a Lego Peter Jackson makes a cameo appearance when the 4 Hobbits get into the village of Bree, he can be seen standing on a box, eating a carrot. When you pass him, he will wave at you.
This is the second LEGO video game to feature talking minifigures. The lines are taken directly from the The Lord of the Rings movies.
The game features loads of voices and music from the actual film.
A special offer through GameStop and EB Games includes downloadable content for five characters: Sméagol, Prince Imrahil, Sauron (Second Age), Beregond, and Théodred.
If purchased at Walmart, a copy of the first film in the series, "The Fellowship of The Ring", is included. When the PlayStation 3 version is purchased, it is a Blu-Ray copy. On the Xbox 360 however, it is the DVD version of the film.
