I'd still play the tabletop game. Video games and tabletop games are very different things and a 1:1 equivalent game doesn't actually work, for one thing, and you can't actually replicate the labour-intensive/skill-oriented process of painting the models (half the reason I play 40k/WMH in the first place) or the community that gets built up around the tabletop game.

Balanced Game: Noun. A game in which all options and choices are worth using.

You may as well ask, "If someone came out with more flavors of ice cream, would you stop eating the original flavors?"

On the other hand, a "perfect one-to-one computer computer game of your favorite table top game" would involve:
1. Fully editable terrain
2. Fully editable units
3. Custom scripting features to add custom scenario rules
4. Digital sculpting features for customizing models

Give me heaven and I'll still want to carve my models by hand.
