The Lord of the Rings: The White Council Announced

Man, I'm really behind on my news reporting. EA has announced The Lord of the Rings: The White Council, which is an RPG for the PC, Xbox 360, and PlayStation 3 due out at end of 2007. You can check out the web site here and official press release here.

From the sound of things, it's an original storyline set pre-The Hobbit but still during the Third Age. It's nice to see that EA is going to explore more of this vast world instead of just the films, and I also hope it's not turn based like The Lord of the Rings: The Third Age was. A much stronger emphasis on the characters and no film footage will go a long way as well.
