I have both as well (METLE instead of Pro). I probably play MET more because its more accessible. Its fast, fun, feels more modern and makes for a good quickie. Having said all that, LOTR is epic. The code is stunning and surprises me even after owning it for years. Its perfectly suited for the home environment as there is so much to do... there are parts you may never see. Parts I haven't seen. Yet, knowing there is something out there i've never seen keeps the thrill alive for every single game. Do I get to Destroy the Ring? There And Back Again? Valinor this time??? Nope. Maybe tomorrow. Classic. LOTR will be the last game to leave my collection... no question.
