'Lego: Lord of the Rings' to bring the lore to life with 85 playable characters
Verge:
Lego: Lord of the Rings, the upcoming installment in the Lego games franchise, will feature 85 playable characters, including a number that have never appeared in the film adaptations.
(3DS, Gamescom 2012, LEGO Lord of the Rings, PC, PS Vita, PS3, Wii, Xbox 360)
That is a lot of characters, and it's pretty cool they are bringing some in from the books. A medium like games makes it much easier to do compared to a movie.
