The Lord of the rings (the fellowship of the ring) film was possibly the best film i have seen, ever! I'm just wondering how EA and possible SIERRA can live up to the brilliance of the film. Can they ever make a game that is as good as the film?

I would have thought a Harry Potter game would be aimed at a younger generation then a Lord of the Rings game.
Purely because the main market for HarryPotter merchandise is around 13 or below, yet for LotR it (I would have hoped) would be higher.
So perhaps the LotR game may be more sophisticated?
To clarify things, this is not Iguana commenting on anything games related.

If it is anything like the crappy Harry Potter game for the PC then it will be crap.
Think of what they could have done with the licence: a virtual world online where you go through the school ofline and when passed and learnt the spells do battle through forests and unchanted lands. They could have made a brilliant RPG but instead they make a cheap cash in for all the 8 year olds. even they complete it whithin 4 days. HP was a complete waste of time: how could PCgamer give it 79%? It isn't even a game!

heh, my thoughts exactly upon reading the title of this thread.

Yeah, probably true. I suspect more of the gamesplaying public have seen the film than read the book. Good point you made there.

I have, of course, read the book before the film came out and still think the book is far better. I was talking about the film though because that is probably what future games will be based on. Well character looks etc.
Or the book, the book dammit.
