Again, I don't get it why some people say XMEN isn't finished? You have 2 wizard modes complete with dots and are very difficult. Complete them both and you are done. What more do you want? What bugs are you referring to?

Quoted from TomGWI:

Maybe, but all those titles have one name tied to them that make them great.
MET - done
SM - done
TWD - I could argue it is done
ACDC - inserts aside it feels complete
IM - done
Other games:
Kiss - not done
ST - better needs some bugs fixed
Avatar - bugs
XMen - wizard mode ends games, bugs
Avengers - Hulk needs code (in Hulk voice)
GoT - not done just released
WWE - lol
Mustang - ?????

You don't stop playing after beating both wizard modes, you start over. What's wrong with that? I guess if someday I have that killer game and beat both wiz modes I will be happy to be disappointed that I have to start over.

Quoted from TomGWI:

I guess I'm speaking for others so get your shoot gun down.
It would be the first game to end a game in the history of pinball while you still have active balls.
When you roll an EM do you stop playing?
When you roll an old SS, do you stop playing?
When you get LITZ on TZ, do you stop playing?
I guess some want the game to continue like all games do.

Quoted from Trekkie1978:

What other game is Lonnie working on? Dwight has GOT and Ghostbusters. I must say, for a launch code, GOT was pretty amazing.

There are 6 programmers at Stern. Don't forget the other 3. I imagine a team of 3 programmers works on the game, except maybe Lyman works alone? I saw Waison, Mike K, Tanio and Dwight on the GB video, so I assume they are contributing to the game in some way. Mike K, Waison and Lonnie worked on Kiss. Several programmers worked on Star Trek, etc.

I imagine they have a certain time period to code a game and then move on to the next game. So if you wait a year for an update it probably means nobody touched it for 11 months since they were working on other titles.

They have 6 programmers - (Lyman, Lonnie, Dwight, Waison, Tanio and Mike.)

Quoted from Deez:

How many programmers does Stern have?
