I played both and enjoyed each of them. I ordered the Hobbit because I love the theme and I know how much Keith improved the gameplay on WOZ. GB is great game to play too. Very fast like most sterns. I"m not sure I would put this in with LOTR, MET, SM, or ACDC but it definitely is worthy of being a part of my collection. Bottom line, if you can afford both do it! I'm already in on TH but I'll probably go after a MET or ACDC before GB. Oh, I would rather have the LE on the GB but the pro isn't a huge drop off. For me GB is the best game stern has put out in years. I like it better than tron and IM.
