I'm restarting my very old The Lord of the Rings: The Third Age let's Play - now using my bought and paid for CD of the game on a PS2-emulator on the computer - enhancing the graphics into a 1080p Widescreen Resolution.

So I had originally played this game way back in 2008-2009 when episodes on Youtube were limited to just 10:59 minutes long. I had used a tool/device known as Pinnacle Studio 10 in order to connect devices like my Nintendo GameCube, Playstation 2 and Playstation 3 to the computer - even my old VHS player. I used to play/watch and record on the computer while doing so.

The Pinnacle Studio were updated to version 12 and version 14 which are still installed on my computer today. Unfortunately the resolution of this device was only at 480p maximum - and the consoles/VHS did use scart-cables and not HDMI.

By using an emulator on my personal computer I can have a widescreen resolution in HD - and the game has been upscaled into a 1080p res as stated previously which is 2x as good a res as in the original.

My old Youtube-videos of this game are still uploaded on this channel, as I did re-upload all 71 videos back in 2010-2011 - while the sound is still great I didn't comment at all - so the difference in the sound-department is that I am voice-recording each episode in the new version. Second - the resolution is just horrible to look at nowadays and you can hardly see the details on the characters. 480p is really old and bad when comparing it to the new version - with superb graphics - it almost looks like a PS3-game.

So in this third episode at about three hours and 57 minutes I did play through episodes up until the end of episode 46 of my old 71-part let's play of this game starting at episode 27. I'm completing the entire third chapter of the game known as "Eastern Moria" - clips from the movies and music from the same are also in the game. It's in-game music and in-game video. I'm also completing the third level in Evil Mode.

I did never complete this game in my old let's play - I believe that I had completed Eregion, Western Moria, Eastern Moria, East Emnet Quills and were in the middle of the fifth part out of 8 or 9 - named "Rohan" I think.
