Whoopee!!!

A machine I would laugh at if I saw on location and would be embarrassed to have in my home, therefore I'm out.

Big Daddy!

If not next, eventually they will run out of top bands from the 70s and 80s to do.

You're not alone. Some may get excited just because it's a new machine, but to me it's an eyesore and wrong in so many ways.

I'm not much of a complainer, but I love roasting shit when I see it.

Does anybody think Stern will ever make another machine themed after something from the 21st century again? Or even the latter part of the 20th century?

I vaguely remember 1977 when it was new.

That's what I thought. I'd rather watch Catdog re-runs.

Aren't they a little late then?

Like I always say, why settle for a cheap copy when the original was so much better.

And it's been replaced by cartoons even our kids won't want to watch.

I watched the video.

You could have put it next to your Kiss.

I agree. But they may feel the need to finish up with the 60s and 70s first. And by then it may be the 22nd century.

I knew it looked like some crappy animation I might have seen before.

Hey what do I know? I am just glad I'm not an old man desperately trying to relive my youth buying these high dollar monuments to a band that was pretty much washed up by the 80s.

There must be some kind of generation gap in pinball. I remember listening to Aerosmith like 40 years ago. Barely....

Same here. It's the coolest looking thing since breakfast.

The warning signs have been in place for a while, but to sum up my feelings I think we've finally crossed the "pinball has become a total joke" threshold and there won't be any turning back.

It's actually kind of sad in a way.

I don't hate the game. I really have no feelings for it at all. And I don't feel the need to explain why I think it's a joke. That should be pretty obvious.

Dude, you're talking about shit that happened 30-40 years ago. WHO CARES!!!!!

So you will be able to participate in two where's the code threads.

Going back to when Aerosmith was actually popular.

Well, in the 90s games did sell for around $2500 I believe. And you're not getting a whole lot more with today's offerings that's for sure. But prices on a lot of things have gone up since then, others prices have gone down.

In '95 Aerosmith CDs sold for around $10? Now I think you can find them in the bargain bin at Walmart for much cheaper than that.

Actually vinyl has never been topped as far as sound quality.

That's not true. CD is digital sampling, thus leaving out parts of the original analog recording.

For you maybe, but not me. I noticed it right off the bat. CDs were more convenient, but so were cassettes.

And we are in a thread discussing Aerosmith. A band that recorded their best albums in the 70s on analog, of which sound best on vinyl.

The 80s was a homogenized, digitalized decade. And that's exactly what they did when they converted all the great analog recordings of the past to fit on a compact disc.

Just like your bullshit post, you can't believe everything you read. I was there when it happened, I noticed the difference, I still notice the difference, and I trust my senses more than what some wanna be experts on a pinball forum tell me I should believe.

But you are free to believe whatever they have convinced you you must believe.

I wasn't and you weren't. I don't listen to much of either anymore. But If you ever feel the need to compare which obsolete music format is more pleasing to the ears, feel free to stop on by.

Pisses me off my vinyl Rocks and Get Your Wings are missing. I purged the collection a few years back, but was sure those were still there. Maybe I'll look again... in a few years

What's bullshit is telling me it is all my imagination.

Was what they did to the early ZZ Top albums when they first put them on CD all in my imagination as well?
