I think the tabletop game looks much better. Personally, I think that nintendo is ruining our minds! Minds that we could be using to read LOTR with! Ok, sorry, getting a little weird but I think that some of the marketing of LOTR has gone a bit far. I fear that people will forget what drew them to LOTR in the first place and some will not bother to read the books when they have the video game in front of them. Tolkien must be literally spinning and doing flips in his grave over this misuse of his novel. *sighs* Oh well, not much this little hobbit can do about it except refuse to pick up a controller.
