Quoted from pinlink:And yet I read a post yesterday that claims "The Hobbit is slow". I honestly don't even know how you come up with that conclusion. The ball speed and game play are certainly not slow. Maybe they had the front legs jacked all the way up.
Good lord! It certainly is not slow ! Especially when you get a beast mode going
Speaking of “nice to look at...”

Quoted from Elvishasleft:I dont know the details like this.. all I know is I love the LOTR movies and could barely watch the CGI nightmare that was the Hobbit movies.
I was alternately annoyed and bored... I think I made it through them though probably because I was watching in 3D so at least that part was cool.
As far as the pins go... I always found jersey jack to be going after the "I want my pinballs to look like an xmas tree and be stuffed with toys" market so its more about looks and stuff then playability.
LOTR is an all time great players pin but kind fugly.. Hobbit is neato to look at.
Only JJP I thought played more like a players pin to date was Wonka.. could just be because its not a widebody.
I'm not a huge fan of the Hobbit movies, but there's almost nothing in the JJP game that is not part of the book in some fashion. The game does take on more prominent roles for Azog and Bolg, and there's a couple REALLY minor things you could complain about (Bilbo doesn't have a backpack!) because of the use of film clips, but is it important? No.
TH definitely does not play like a typical B/W widebody; it is quite fast
