Talk:The Hobbit (1982 video game)

message: The Philip Mitchell linked in this article appears to be British author and not an Australian programmer. I strongly suspect these are two separate and unrelated people who just happen to share the same name (also the same name as an Eastenders TV character). However I have been unable to track down any further information on the "real" Philip Mitchell beyond this page. Andrew Oakley 16:44, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

message: I seem to recall the game was also novel in its handling of profanity: if — as I and many of then 14 year old friends did — type in something along the lines of ‘F*ck Off’, the game would reply with something along the lines of “I’m a sophisticated piece of software written by intelligent designers, and you’re telling me to f*ck off? You f*ck off”.
As I recall, it would do this with common profanity: rarer words would get the usual “I don’t Understand” type response common to these games  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Cuddy2977 (talk • contribs) 18:20, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
