I took my almost 16 year old son to see both of the J.R.R.Tolken movies. Like most kids these days, my son Mike is into video games with a passion. On the way home from seeing the Two Towers, he told me in passing that the Lord of the Rings and the Two Towers we taken from a video game. Of course I was quite surprised at this since I had no idea that the Sony Playstation 2 was available 30 some years ago when I was reading the books. To think I was playing "Pong" when I could have been playing War Craft 3!
