TypeError: Object #<Object> has no method 'Router' in node

Hi I'm trying to follow this tutorial http://www.tokbox.com/blog/creating-chat-roulette-with-node-js-socket-io-and-opentok/

after successfully installed express, in my application folder I've updated code of Package.json file with below code as per tutorial

{
    "name": "RouletteTok",
    "version": "0.0.1",
    "dependencies": {
        "express": "2.3.11",
        "jade": "0.12.1",
        "opentok": "0.1.0",
        "socket.io": "0.6.18"
    }
}

Then I ran the command in terminal npm install But When I was trying to run the node server by giving this command node app.js it gave me an error. To be very Honest I got no idea about node js hence googled the error but couldn't figure it out. The error is as follow

/Users/UIMAC/RouletteTok1/routes/index.js:2
var router = express.Router();
                     ^
TypeError: Object #<Object> has no method 'Router'

express.Router has been added in express 4, set the express version in your package.json to ^4.0.0 and run npm install. Note that this might break some of your code because your current express version is really old.
