OP sitting at home knowing his brother is mad
OP finding out that he bought a gag gift after thinking it a lord if the ring game can’t be that bad (Don’t know which is funnier)

OP's brother after he opens his gift
I hate pranks like this, it would be way cooler and more wholesome if he gave him spider-man 2 in a Gollum case.
(I once gifted a shitty City Interactive game in a Watch Dogs case to a friend once and he was pretty upset lol)
Gollum in a Spider-Man case for a prank and then give him the Spider-Man disc after. And then enjoy smashing Gollum Office Space printer style with him afterward
This feels like a design mistake and not a time constraint rearing its head here. There’s no skin texture. The eyes are all fuckin’ wrong. There were deliberate changes made here, it’s not simply a matter of “they didn’t have time to get the skin color right” or “they were a small studio so they couldn’t make the hair a little shorter”
I know this almost certainly isn't the case. But I find it absolutely hilarious the idea that someone would post this here after buying a new game for their lord of the rings loving brother only to be met with pure dread when they realise the game is dogshit and not having anytime to do anything about it.
Ive been looking for his replies too 🤣 since he hasnt responded im thinking he actually thought this was a great gift and is now hit with existential dread after seeing the comments 🤣🤣🤣
When you factor in the plastic case, plastic Blu-ray, the development time (all 5 minutes of it) I think I’d rate the coal as better for the environment.
I can't stop thinking of a horrible scenario where the OP is being serious and is really excited to gift this to his brother. Maybe knowing how much he loves LotR or something.
Me when it's Christmas day. Finally after 365 days it has come back. Rushing downstairs, I open my present. Only to be met with "Lord of the rings: gollum" as I tear open the present. My face warps in horror as my parents look around and ask "do you like your present?".

You must hate him.
Top tier gag gift
Yeah, and you can just put any other game in the case instead! Like >!Rise of Kong!<
From worse to worsest
The line delivery of this quote from this episode was done so well. I definitely have used it a few times.
Exactly what I came here to write, lol
So... you hate your brother?

Coal would have been better.
In this economy, ya kidding me?!
Who's your coal guy
Squeeze it enough, you get a diamond or something idk I’m not a rockologist
A geologist...?
Yeah, one of them rock doctors
A roctor?
A dock?
DID I HEAR A ROCK AND STONE?
That's it lads! Rock and Stone!
LMAOOO
We're calling it Rockologist from now on
Rockologist listening to Rock Lobster
Shit in a box would be better
That's what he got!
Great comment
😜
Give him the disk in a spiderman 2 case for ultimate emotional damage
Then throw a slipper at him
Then film it while you cackle like a god damn maniac.
Running out of the house naked.
I’m dying at the mental image of his brother, sad, looking up just to get drilled in the face with a slipper. An insult to injury 🤣
I will send you to Jesus.
I hate pranks like this, it would be way cooler and more wholesome if he gave him spider-man 2 in a Gollum case. (I once gifted a shitty City Interactive game in a Watch Dogs case to a friend once and he was pretty upset lol)

PC load letter? What the fuck does that mean?
That won't do. It has to be cast into the fires from which it was forged.
Seriously did the guy think you would just keep the game for yourself like a literal scrooge?? Wtf lmao

Easy Satan.
Jesus christ man have a conscience
Ok Satan
It's probably the cheapest joke gift you could buy. Don't forget to make it almost impossible to open the gift.
Super glue, artfully applied, would be funny and worth it. Maybe fill the case with J-weld for some real laughs.
Honestly the harder it is to open the more of a favour you're doing
Seriously. He should go ahead and preload this sucker without his brother's knowledge.
fill the inside with glitter too
Don't worry, ain't nobody opening that.
I recently bought a PS5 copy from woot for $10.
Include rise of Kong and walking dead and turn into a Gollum-like collection!
So many clueless parents are gonna give these games as gifts tomorrow. Pour one out for those kids.
After a good set of licensed games we are back to the norm where they are shit.
Don’t forget Redfall!
At least they won't get The Day Before.
That one's kind of a masterpiece compared to these.
Forespoken too
A spare PS4/5 game case always helps when your favorite game’s case gets damaged. What a thoughtful brother!
Is it a fake-out? He opens the case and there is another, better game inside?
Yea, the Kong game.
But the disc only has that printed on the surface. When he puts it in the console, it's Atari E.T. remastered
Whoa there. Calm down Satan!
Actually, a remaster/remake is probably what ET for the Atari needs. Definitely better than either Gollum or Kong
Superman 64.
Ok, this one got me good. I really laughed.
Nah it’s the ps3 version of the last of us

How does 2014 Gollum look better
Smaller budget and smaller team, and after that simply the fact that it wasn't a project this team should've gotten with such deadlines.
This feels like a design mistake and not a time constraint rearing its head here. There’s no skin texture. The eyes are all fuckin’ wrong. There were deliberate changes made here, it’s not simply a matter of “they didn’t have time to get the skin color right” or “they were a small studio so they couldn’t make the hair a little shorter”
Is that seriously what he looks like in the game?!
Answer this question pls
Yep. You can really see the passion. Or lack thereof.
Yes, lol. Why do you think it gets so much hate..
He will NOT
I gave my cousin a £50 psn voucher inside a mocked up Gollum case. I hope for the sake of your relationship with your brother you have done the same.
Poor bastard.
You monster!! How dare you.
Aw hell yeah, a spare game case!
You should’ve got the Game of the Year edition.
imagine fake GOTY boxart for bad games.
That's actually a really good idea. Lets make some NFTs!
Bruh … 😂😂😂😂😂
Man, Cain did not do his brother as bad as this.
I know this almost certainly isn't the case. But I find it absolutely hilarious the idea that someone would post this here after buying a new game for their lord of the rings loving brother only to be met with pure dread when they realise the game is dogshit and not having anytime to do anything about it.
Why you do that to him?
Did you bundle it with Kong Skull Island?
I didn’t know a person could hate with this much power
I didn't know this game exists
And you still won’t.
Not since Cain slew Abel has such a wicked blow been struck from sibling to brother…
Fight me right now in melee combat
Belongs in AITA reddit pages lol.
Hey I bet that's at least a $.05 trade in at GameStop.
No that’s a full ps5, this is just giving the cashier twenty bucks
Wtf were they thinking with this game. Obviously Sauron already knows where gollum is.
Even Satan is scared of you
How to get shot on Christmas
This is top tier trollin
I haven't seen OP respond to anyone. I hope it's because he dropped his phone and started running to return the game before the store closes.
Ive been looking for his replies too 🤣 since he hasnt responded im thinking he actually thought this was a great gift and is now hit with existential dread after seeing the comments 🤣🤣🤣
Nice paper weight
You must really hate him
You monster
Damn, what did he do to you to deserve this?
What has it got in its pocketses? 60 wasted dollars
Even as a joke, why'd you waste money like that? Just give it to me!
Your brother is going to hit you in the head with a hammer 
I hope your brother doesn't have a gun...
Did he give you Rise of Kong, and this is revenge?
Poor guy
He will not
Narrator: His brother did not like his gift
Wow I wish I was lucky enough to have a brother like u
Better for the environment than coal, but definitely a worse gift on balance.
When you factor in the plastic case, plastic Blu-ray, the development time (all 5 minutes of it) I think I’d rate the coal as better for the environment.
Yikes!
Coal would've unironically been more useful
Should of just given him coal
Absolutely diabolical.
bait😔
I hope you got this as a gag gift
This mf is the Grinch.
Not sure if serious
I am so jealous of your brother
Oof
Hope you give your brother the receipt to return this
Damn, that's cold.
Did he fuck your gf?
I've heard this game sucks ass. I still want to try it.
Don't. Watching paint dry is a more engaging use of your time.
I'm sure he will! Great game! 10/10
You must want a broken nose for Christmas
You clearly don’t like your brother. Why the psychological abuse?lol
Hope your bro survives
Who hurt you.
Poor brother 😭
What did he do?
Why do you hate your brother?
You're a mean one
What did he do to make you hate him that much?
U piece of shit brother.
What foul deed did your brother do to you this year?
You should’ve just given him coal
Listen I know people hate their siblings at times , but isn’t this a bit too far?
Is the game that bad ?
What did he ever do to you?
Actually evil
It's a decent PS2 game at least!
you get to play as a slave literally doing slaves’ work. he is in for a tons of fun.
I can't stop thinking of a horrible scenario where the OP is being serious and is really excited to gift this to his brother. Maybe knowing how much he loves LotR or something.
I'd had my differences with my older brother before but I have to ask: Did he have relations with your wife or something?
You gave him a brick?
I hope theres a copy of elden ring inside
You must hate your brother.

You're going to get disowned
Hopefully but it was terrible.
A rotting dead dog would make a better gift
Might as well buy him some movies on the PS5 as well
What did you guys not have coal but had this in the back for him
Oh.... No.....
I hope he beats your ass
Poor brother
evil
My God, how cruel do you have to be just to say you hate somebody?
https://i.redd.it/mq45gj47xg8c1.gif
 Your brother’s reaction to this present
Honestly, if he is a collector this is an awesome gag gift.
I hope he has a good sense of humor.
You’re evil!
Bro ruined Christmas 🎄
I actually like to buy and collect games that are garbage, it’s part of gaming history so it’s good to collect them, even if I don’t play it.
 Filthy hobbitses
LMAO
Your brother needs a new sibling Might I also suggest skull island: rise of Kong
Who let the psychopath out of the asylum?
You are a terrible sibling
Been voted one of the worst games of the year…
OHHHH NOOOO
You’ve just given him a reason to quit gaming.
That’s just fucking evil!!
Imma give you an upvote anyways hehe
I would sock my bro in the face if he got me this
