Middle-earth B‑class Low‑importance

	This article is within the scope of WikiProject Middle-earth, which aims to build an encyclopedic guide to J. R. R. Tolkien, his legendarium, and related topics. Please visit the project talk page for suggestions and ideas on how you can improve this and other articles.Middle-earthWikipedia:WikiProject Middle-earthTemplate:WikiProject Middle-earthTolkien articles
B	This article has been given a rating which conflicts with the project-independent quality rating in the banner shell. Please resolve this conflict if possible.
Low	This article has been rated as Low-importance on the project's importance scale.
Note: Though it states in the Guide to writing better articles that generally fictional articles should be written in present tense, all Tolkien legendarium-related articles that cover in-universe material before the current action must be written in past tense. Please see Wikipedia:WikiProject Middle-earth/Standards for more information about this and other article standards.

What's this all about?

"EA was working on another console RPG called The Lord of the Rings: The White Council. IGN expected The White Council to continue on from the side-story of The Third Age.[4]. It was canceled due to an overlap with the userbase for the MMO"

May I suggest adding another game?

Since it looks like the article is including MUDs you might want to have a look at shadows of isildur ... It's a roleplay intensive mud

Out of date info on the Turbine Lord of the Rings Online

The info listed for LotRO is outdated to the point that it misses the boat on the Riders Of Rohan expansion, listing I'm guessing a short lived original release name. Unless I'm mistaken, wasn't also Sierra originally working on a MMORPG in the late 90's? Tsnake (talk) 17:54, 3 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Shadowfax

Back in the 80s there was also a game (on the Spectrum) called "Shadowfax", in which you played Gandalf riding Shadowfax in a defender-like scrolling game. LeapUK (talk) 20:41, 23 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Ah, just seen it mentioned (it wasn't hotlinked so I missed it).

Minecraft

I added the mention of Minecraft as there are a lot of Legendarium-themed maps and buildings made with it.--Adûnâi (talk) 08:11, 19 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Shadowfax isn't a licensed game

Shadowfax isn't a licensed game, and shouldn't be in the official section, if it should be mentioned at all. I will probably move it's mention to the unofficial section. — Preceding unsigned comment added by MD0111000001101001 (talk • contribs) 04:38, 5 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
