Quoted from jgentry:

The acting is bad. Could still be a fun game and maybe it ties in a lot better. The video did a terrible job of showing us that though. Seems like as much time was spent on making a tank out of the cabinet as anything else. I need great pinball machines, not strange gimmicks. Time will tell on this one but I just can't see a lot of people rushing to buy it other than the people that buy everything anyway. FF and PF blow this out of the water.

It kind of like the acting in Evil Dead. I think these individuals can act but they ham it up more so its more B-movie. I would love to at least play it then make a decision. It could be an excellent shooter who knows

I wish the Deluxe was that green color. That looks better to me than the black

#2610 1 year ago

My distributor already sold out of the Signature editions

#2703 1 year ago

I am really interested to hear the music and call outs for this game. Since pins are becoming more and more expensive I have to choose wisely where my money is spent. It will be a toss up between this Deluxe or a FF Premium

Quoted from Cheeks:

That feeling when you're embarrassed for the actors.[quoted image]

That was the point of the acting to make it cheesy. Just like a B-movie. Look at Evil Dead pretty cheesy but its a great film

Quoted from Doctor6:

If they would have made the video assets look like THIS? I would have put money down right now for one.

For all we know it could be. They didnt really show anything. I think it was clips of people having some fun with it. I could be wrong but I guess we will not know until TPF

Quoted from JSC:

Same tale almost every time. Distributors say they are sold out then call people 2 weeks later. I’d guess they had an interest list which isn’t the same thing as hard money. There is no way the signature edition of this game will be hard to find at that price and lack of added features over LE.

Well their website says its a $5,000 deposit for the Signature edition. You cancel you get a % taken out and returned to you. Guess that would prevent people from ordering one then saying ehhh i change my mind

I like how everyone is crapping on the trailer. We do not know if that is actually in the game or its just people having fun. Wait till TPF or a stream and we can see. I hope this game does very well. Good competition is good for everyone. I just hope the prices of NIB games come down but I know that wont happen.

Quoted from Beechwood:

The point is we are paying $10K for a pin, not goofy videos.
We had tons of video in the reveal, and almost no pin play. Makes no sense. I think the basic game may be pretty fun, but I have no more confidence in that then I did 24 hours ago.

They did release it a couple days before one of if not the biggest pinball festival. Im guessing they want hands on and have people experience it for themselves Im sure there will be a stream released. People complaining about actors and it being goofy. That is the point its not to be taken serious. Just like my favorite example the movie Evil Dead. That movie did not take it self serious and turned out very well. It is a funny, cheesy horror movie that turned out being a cult classic. Too many people here are putting the cart before the horse. Lets all just wait a few days and we will have much more information and we can go from there. I think it does look like a fun game I am excited to see game play.

I do like AP. If I had the money I would buy a Hot wheels and GTF. AP has their own quirky, weird style that I do enjoy. I really hope this game does well from them. If they can be like others and pump out 2 games a year, I think they can be a thorn in some of their competitions side

Quoted from starfighter:

Not sure if this has any validity, but I did hear a theory that the clunky PR rollout was implemented to keep the production line from being overwhelmed and log jammed with unit orders right now. This would allow unit orders to become a steady flow spread out over the course of the entire year.

That would make a good theory. Its also good they were expecting this game to be very popular. I would love to see the Jack Danger stream and see how it actually shoots. Is he streaming in Deluxe model or will it be the LE

Quoted from Sorokyl:

does they count as buyers if they never actually receive a pulp fiction though? They probably already had their 2024 production booked up before the show.

The owner of the location I go to said he ordered one. He is expecting it November 2023

Do we know how long it will take to get GTF off the line? Ive herd rumors it could take a year

Quoted from Wariodolby:

Looks like the flippers might be 20% moved up also?
You can see in the pic, red lines show huge differences in shots to tank and saucer.
Also this ice cream cone is 20% bigger then the other!
[quoted image][quoted image]

I herd that when you hit the tank you have a great chance of draining your ball. They honestly should of moved it back a little further. Herd from dealers no one knows for sure when they are getting GTF. My distributor said he is still waiting on Hot wheels
