....lots of the characters and places in the game are from the books and not just the movies and the story weaves in and out of the books. I am actually rereading all 3 (kindle'ed the Hobbit for a reread last yr when the 1st movie came out) of the books which i hadn't read in over 30 years i think...which got me to thinking how long it had been since i saw the Pete Jackson trilogy movies, 1st one came out in like 2002 i think, so maybe 12 years, so watching them again too....lol And now the 2nd Hobbit movie is about to hit the theaters!
