Might be biased since I've only had my LotR for about 3 weeks, but not a chance. Like, no chance, ever.
But, if you are bored with it, I'm sure you can get what you want for it. Then, down the road, when you are bored with TF:LE, you'll be able to trade it away + cash for a LotR!
Quoted from hank527:TFLE is a much deeper game.
WTF? Really? Is it deeper than tSPP as well?
How do you figure that one? I'd love to see a defense of that position.
Quoted from hank527:Really,
There are 12 modes to beat before you get to the battle of cybertron plus 4 multiball modes. Each mode requires you make something like 10-12 shots. Its like beating the crate in Scared Stiff 12 times. I cannot do it. I can get halfway there. No clue how you beat cybertron or about a wizard mode. Defeating Prime or Megatron is sickening hard.
LOTR you have 3 multiball modes to complete each with a multiball and 6 modes activated by the center shot. These are very easy to get through. Then LOTR requires you to make specific shots to destroy the ring. Way cool then wizard more on there and back again.
LOTR is a better game though if you are tired of it Transformers LE is a decent replacement. I can beat LOTR in about 35 minutes
You beat Valinor in 35 minutes? Wow. That is ... impossible?
You forgot Gollum multi and Ring Multi in your multiball count. Plus a bunch of other stuff that will take too long for me to type. I could get the link to the rule sheet for you if you like.
You found completing the multiball modes easy in LotR? You found completing TABA easy? And you beat Valinor?
Wow, I either really stink, or you are really, really, I mean Bowen/Lyman/Robert/name your top ten player in the world good.
Quoted from hank527:Thats all it was. I completely excluded wizard mode which there and back again I believe is considered.
But, Battle for Cybertron is the wizard mode in TF, correct?
Quoted from goodgameslover:The difficulty is worlds apart. I reached "destroy the ring" many times, the first time was after 20 games or so. But i have yet to reach "Battle for cybertron"
How many times have you reached Valinor?
Like, if we are going to compare wizard modes to wizard modes, why dont we?
Quoting from pinball news:
"Once the Battle for Cybertron wizard mode is over, all the characters on the feature grid are unlit and you're effectively back at the start of the game, only with a slightly higher base value for each mode and a whole heap of points to your credit."
Battle is the final mode in TF. Valinor is the final mode in LotR.
I really think you should go check out the rule sheet for LotR. It will make you want to play it again for sure!
Edited to add: And I'm pretty sure you will change your opinion on which is deeper. They don't say LotR is the second deepest game behind tSPP for nothing. Keefer's the man!
