message: As part of a minor tidy I added some basic references - some of the past history remains unreferenced, and the history probably could be improved..77.86.67.245 (talk) 22:07, 21 April 2009 (UTC)

message: How is it that JRRT could sell the game rights to LOTR, when in 1968 computer games, video games, MMOs, and even pen-n-paper RPGS essentially did not exist? 98.192.196.231 (talk) 16:58, 6 April 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Game rights? 

message: I wasn't sure how to deal with this, as it probably requires an Article name change etc etc, but Tolkien Enterprises is now called Middle Earth Enterprises!! --Kurtle (talk) 13:01, 24 May 2010 (UTC)

replies: text: Probably late, but better late than never. Tolkien Enterprises was the public name ("doing business as" name) of The Saul Zaentz Company (short SZC), while Middel-earth Enterpirses is a division of said company, not the company itself. All such assets were spun off into that newly founded division. This should probably be mentioned, even if the current middleearth.com websites states it differently, old game screens still show "The Saul Zaentz Company d/b/a Tolkien Enterprises".

message: I think that the Decipher's license had expired, but I'm not sure (Decipher edited from 2002 to 2006 an official The Lord of the Rings Roleplaying Game). Now, the official role-playing game set in the Middle-earth is The One Ring, from Cubicle 7. The point is: does Decipher still own the license ? I guess it doesn't... but where could we find an official source of that ? Kintaro (talk) 16:17, 11 January 2013 (UTC)

message: Should we clarify somewhere that all the rights to produce officially licensed games limit there licensees exclusively to either the content of the Peter Jackson films, or the books that Saul Zaentz happened to buy the merchandising rights to? Do any sources explicitly discuss this? It feels like this is the single most noteworthy point about this topic, but our article presently tiptoes around the topic.
