Quoted from NimblePin:

I wish I never had to make these comments

That's what the "edit" button is for RGP.. err, I mean RGR.

LMFAO




Quoted from NimblePin:

Two Valinors in one game and now this?!?
I think it's time to step away from the pins for a while RGR, you've seem to have hit your limit.

Where was this guy at our launch party last night where the high score of the evening was 118M? Too funny.

Quoted from pinball_customs:

RGR said:The other thing that you reminded me of is that they are releasing games without the complete code.... WTF. This is something that Williams or Bally never did... Just woeful.

This is not true at all.. there are incomplete Bally / WMS Games out there. TOTAN, CV and CP come to mind
I'd also argue that if Bally / WMS were still making pins and they adopted the USB update method (most likely they would), then they most certainly would be doing the same thing.
(I'm NOT saying however that it's the right thing to do)

Exactly. And most games had several different rom versions.

However, I would say it is the way to go. There's no issue with releasing a solid core set of software and then updating based on further testing and user feedback, or adding additional features, or even selling additional content in many cases. It's when they don't do this, or half-ass it, that people decry the practice as a whole.
