Destiny has lots of small issues, but for all they get wrong, they absolutely own it with fun gun play and balanced weapons. For now it isn't an amazing game, but DLC and the test of time will determine its true fate. Right now it's good, but not great.
Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor is the best Lord of the Rings game I've ever played. It's that simple.

But it's not all Hobbit stew and potatoes.
In one of Nietzsche's more famous quote from Beyond Good and Evil, so states, "He who fights with monsters should look to it that he himself does not become a monster. And when you gaze long into an abyss the abyss also gazes into you." The longer you play Abyss Odyssey, the more this becomes true.
