How many Hobbits will be delivered by January 1st --- 144 days from today.

The movie will be released on December 17th, Jack has said he is contractually obligated to have games shipping by the movie release date.

If I can figure out how to do a poll, it will be based on the number of Pinsiders who chime in on the inevitable thread that will be started on " Who's got their Hobbit"

If I'm not to hung over on January 1st, I'll bring this poll back in 144 days.

You 283 (62%) folks were right, Zero-ish by a mile. I was in the 1 to 10-ish category. I really thought Jack was going to get a few units out for the release of the movie but that was almost half a year ago. A lot of sh!t has hit the fan since then, namely Expo.

Glad to see the ship has been righted, just hope we aren't back on the Yellow Brick Road for deliveries.

Quoted from vid1900:

Didn't Jack say that "we're under contract to have the game out when the movie premiers" ?
How did he break that contract?
Or was there never a contract in the first place?

My guess is that Jack was taking so much heat over WOZ being delayed, to ease concern about Hobbit delays he used this as a sales technique.

Those that preorder Hobbit will get their games on schedule because of the quote-unquote contract with Warner Brothers.

The game looks really nice and if he needs more time to make it even better, I won't complain about an improved Hobbit. I don't really care when it ships just along as it doesn't turn into a TBL fiasco.
