Had people over for Thanksgiving. One 25ish year old guy played a lot of pinball. He spent almost all of his time on Hobbit and that is with some pretty decent other games vying for his attention (LOTRLE, AFM, GBLE, Full Throttle).
Quoted from thedarkknight77:There was one listed for $7300, but it sold. That seemed to be the Magic price.
Agreed. Many folks (myself included) are in for $7500 so I hardly think the bottom is dropping out.
Quoted from xbloodgreenx:After about a week of ownership, I'm loving the game immensely. It's so much better after you understand the rules and know what to do. If you've casually played it a couple of times, you likely aren't going to appreciate it. I see it sitting right next to my LOTR for years to come.
At this point if one left, it would be LOTR. Hobbit is a very fun game. I have a very short wishlist:
1. More audio cues as it is very hard to know what to shoot for at times
2. No beast multiball during smaug multiball (as has been mention by others)
Quoted from jgentry:There are a few really easy things. The Beast frenzy multiball constantly starts if you start Smaug multiball and it makes it almost impossible to defeat smaug. That is a huge glaring one in my opinion. Prevent beast frenzy from starting once smaug is started. The game needs a lot more call outs, I'm constantly trying to read the screen to figure out what to do as the game does not tell me. Those 2 things alone would make the game a ton better. I never said anything about adding more modes. The game is not even remotely close to as polished as WOZ is.
This is a perfect summary of what hobbit needs. Love it now but both those are extremely needed to make it amazing.
