    What ever it is I'm sure it will be delayed or canceled at some point.

    Full story about another project with no details.  Even if it is LotR, I'm likely to pass on this.  If I live so long, that is.



    Logic, my dear, merely enables one to be wrong with great authority.

    A LoTR mmorpg with VR2 compatibility would be an epic adventure.

    Information without information. Nothing to really see here. Not even enough to care one way or another. Wake me up when we get there. Zzzzz

    Private Division is cool, but it's weird to imagine them working on the LOTR game. 

    I remember something like this happened a while ago. Some guys developed a game out of their profile and failed.
