What Gamespot Users have to say about The Hobbit: The Prelude to the Lord of the Rings

  • Rating:7.6

    A fairly solid effort.

    The first part of the Hobbit is just okay, you have to go around and collect food to leave on your big quest. The graphics are okay, part cartoon, part real life. I wasn't overly impressed, though. However once you get p... Read Full Review

    This game has a special place in my heart, and in my opinion,a keeper. I go back and play it again at least once a year.

    In my opinion, this game is great, relaxing fun, and a keeper. It was the first video game I ever played and what gave me my love of action RPG. Since then I have beaten such games as* POP-first 2, working on the 3rd * G... Read Full Review

    Even with its obscure and short plot, The Hobbit is a true adventure game.

    Based on the best selling novel of the same name, The Hobbit recaptures what motion can do for the brain, especially when reading doesn’t cut it for most people. But without a movie based on The Hobbit, you can get an un... Read Full Review

    Pretty true to the book

    The Hobbit, based off of J.R.R Tolkien’s book, is not the worst game ever, but it is not the best either. The graphics aren’t bad at all, the sound is nice, the game play gets pretty repetitive, except they do throw in ... Read Full Review

    A pleasent game that can hold it's own in the LOTR world.

    This game was very fun. With the exception of one quest, it follows J.R.R. Tolkien's book "The Hobbit" very closely, including all of the major battles and quests. The storyline was deep enough to keep your int... Read Full Review

    Broken, confusing, and unexiting.

    First off, its freaking hard. Its nearly impssible to see many ledges and switches because everything is so dark! The battle system is extremely boring. Very few upgrades, and too amy enemies. No Tolkien fan could possib... Read Full Review

    A decent little game.

    This is like a poor man's Jedi Outcast. I love Jedi Outcast, so I'm enjoying this game. The only thing that bugs me is how they draw Bilbo... but from the back he looks okay, and unless you're playing with their horrible... Read Full Review
