Just played Alien!! (and Batman 66 + Aerosmith).
It's looking great. Very unusual shots and feels that some good thought has gone into the layout and 'new' shots I've not seen before. 4 flippers and a hidden lane. Artwork very good and loads of fun. Can't wait until it's on location.
Unfortunately didn't get that far as only 1 game. Was at the EAG London and a big queue to play. I did try to make that shot but I think the right flipper was under powered as only went half way up (could be my bad shot) but looks like the Warp shot on Star Trek.
Answering some of the earlier posts, being from the UK I've met Andrew on a number of occasions, I've been round his factory (previous one I think when Full Throttle started) and played Alien at EAG London about a month ago. All good to report. Yes he does have other machines on site as he is a pinhead. As for production, he's is just starting to 'ramp up'. No one can start producing any product at top speed from the start. I'm sure he'll get loads of orders and give Stern/JJP something to think about. This is not negative as I love both Stern and JJP and it can only be good for Pinball. Really forward to hearing about game #3 Andrew..........
This is bad news and really sad for everyone who lost money but if everyone stops handing over hard earned cash for products unproven/not made yet, this situation wouldn't happen.
All you are buying is a promise. Makes no sense whatsoever. This is not the first time it has happened but how about we make it the last?
