Quoted from Aurich:

Assuming Fox approvals go smoothly I don't think anyone will be disappointed in the audio work David Thiel has done for this game

In case someone has not seen this:

I think aurich is absolutely right.
Just small clips but you can imagine the awesomeness

Quoted from paul_8788:

I really want to throw caution to the wind and place a pre-order, but I need to at least see pics and preferably video so I have a thin veneer of justification. Really hope it comes soon.

So true, i'm in the same boat, having this exact thought since months! but it's the home stretch right now, just a few more weeks

Quoted from bounoun:

5800 euro for the standard edition That cant be right....

I'm wondering about that number too! About 1k less than the last quote from my distributor before expo. Would love to get clarification about the pricing for standard.
Game looks killer!

Quoted from Plungemaster:

I really wonder if someone, who has no space for 5 pins, can even afford 5 pins.

Every pinhead living in a major city might disagree strongly

Quoted from Plungemaster:This way 1 single pin could have a ton of games. All the same layout, but different rules, you can adjust the toys if you like.

Interesting ideas but the fact of having the same layout would kill it for me. That's the reason for having different machines!

Quoted from HoakyPoaky:

I know you are very busy Andrew, but some of us really looking forward to watching that presentation video. Just another friendly reminder to upload when you have time

Not a video but very close: the whole seminar as audio file (many many others on pinballnews.com too)

Quoted from iceman44:

I've said before, I'm hoping ALIEN is the most immersive pin ever, with the clips and Thiel sound it certainly could be, especially with headphones.

Just played the protoype at the hungarian pinball open for 30 minutes straight on saturday early morning (the only time there were not 10 people waiting behind
Don't know if there's been a software update since expo but it felt there were more light effects than on the videos i have seen. The one thing i can definitely assure you is that immersion and sound are on a level i've never experienced on a pinball machine before! The audio effects in combination with the awesome videoclips gave me sweaty hands and a higher heart rate after 10 seconds of playing the machine.
Shots felt awesome too, same caveats as the expo crowd already mentioned, left ramp will be redesigned and that's a good thing.
Cheers
