I actually feel angry about this. Simply put, this insults Tolkien. This is a nasty, greedy, ugly act, & contemptuous not only of a decent man's life work but also of those of us whose lives have been enhanced, if not transformed, by that work. Whoever is responsible should be ashamed of themselves.

Why should we have to see something so significant to us sold to the highest bidder in order to boost profits? If The Lord of the Rings in movie or book versions is so popular & widely known its because we fans have made it so. Why should we be insulted like this by a bunch of business people who care for nothing but money? Must everything, every last thing, that's important, that matters be traduced just so somebody can increase their bank balance?

The games will feature all the well loved characters and superb graphics that made the Peter Jackson directed films so popular and led to the award for Best Movie.
