<P> Both New Line and the film production company in New Zealand are integrally tied into the entire development process of the game . Right from the conceptual stage down to the final production builds, their input is sought and listened to . We don't consider New Line a licensor, but more a true partner . As soon as we have the earliest storyboards and bare bones outline for a game, New Line are right at the table with me, giving their feedback . This is also the stage at which we introduce Peter Jackson, Barrie Osborne and the rest of the film production team to the key concepts and get their feedback . From here on, I meet with the actors, the film - makers and New Line on a regular basis to elicit feedback and new ideas as we move forward with the development . We are so deeply tied into the film production that we actually opened our own offices within the 3 foot 6 Weta offices in New Zealand during the pick - up shooting so we could be closer to the action and the assets . </P> <P> Dobner said that during development of the game, she traveled to New Zealand once a month with builds of the game for the filmmakers to play, and on which to give their feedback, and that in total, EA had acquired a quarter of a million different assets from the production . Schofield further pointed out "we even hired the same stunt doubles from the movie to help us render the most realistic movements in the game ." Dobner also said "we want the game to not just look like the films but to be exactly like the films ." She commented that no details in the game were made up; "when we were reproducing Minas Tirith (...) we felt the team would benefit from being able to see and feel a piece of the actual movie set . Unfortunately, the set had already been dismantled . So, while in New Zealand, I searched the various warehouses to find remnants of the dismantled set . After much work, I returned to San Francisco proudly bearing four bricks from the Minas Tirith set ." </P> <Table> <Tr> <Th> Reception </Th> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> <Table> <Tr> <Th_colspan="6"> Review scores </Th> </Tr> <Tr> <Th> Publication </Th> <Th_colspan="5"> Score </Th> </Tr> <Tr> <Th> GBA </Th> <Th> GC </Th> <Th> PC </Th> <Th> PS2 </Th> <Th> Xbox </Th> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> EGM </Td> <Td> 6.83 / 10 </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> 8.33 / 10 </Td> <Td> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Eurogamer </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> 7 / 10 </Td> <Td> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Game Informer </Td> <Td> 8 / 10 </Td> <Td> 8.25 / 10 </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> 8.25 / 10 </Td> <Td> 8.25 / 10 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> GameSpot </Td> <Td> 7.5 / 10 </Td> <Td> 8 / 10 </Td> <Td> 8 / 10 </Td> <Td> 8 / 10 </Td> <Td> 8 / 10 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> GameSpy </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> GameZone </Td> <Td> 8.3 / 10 </Td> <Td> 9 / 10 </Td> <Td> 7.7 / 10 </Td> <Td> 9.1 / 10 </Td> <Td> 9 / 10 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> IGN </Td> <Td> 8 / 10 </Td> <Td> 8.7 / 10 </Td> <Td> 8.7 / 10 </Td> <Td> 8.9 / 10 </Td> <Td> 8.7 / 10 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Nintendo Power </Td> <Td> 4.1 / 5 </Td> <Td> 4.5 / 5 </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> OPM (US) </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> OXM (US) </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> 8.1 / 10 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> PC Gamer (UK) </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> 85% </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> PC Gamer (US) </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> 58% </Td> <Td> </Td> <Td> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Th_colspan="6"> Aggregate score </Th> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Metacritic </Td> <Td> 77 / 100 </Td> <Td> 84 / 100 </Td> <Td> 78 / 100 </Td> <Td> 85 / 100 </Td> <Td> 84 / 100 </Td> </Tr> </Table> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> <Table> <Tr> <Th_colspan="2"> Awards </Th> </Tr> <Tr> <Th> Publication </Th> <Th> Award </Th> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> IGN </Td> <Td> Wireless Game of the Year (2003) </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> DICE (2004) </Td> <Td> Outstanding Achievement in Sound Design </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> DICE (2004) </Td> <Td> Outstanding Achievement in Character Performance: Male (Elijah Wood) </Td> </Tr> </Table> </Td> </Tr> </Table> <Tr> <Th> Reception </Th> </Tr>
