I will go STTNG. For the money it has a lot going for it. Lots of shots, great multi ball modes, lots of real callouts and even a decent video mode.
LOTR is a true classic but it is hard for me to keep hitting the start button repeatedly in the same day. I do not have that problem with STTNG
I have owned 3 STTNG’s. Finally found a keeper. Also long time owner of LOTR.
