Quoted from eggbert52:

Dude, what are you babbling about?

Ahh c'mon be nice Besides I learned a new acronym in his post. Not sure when I would use it though as it seems most appropriate when your ship hits an iceberg. Which I suppose was his point.

Quoted from LTG:

I submitted an application. Why not ? If picked, I might have the only one on location. I always try to do the best I can for my customers.
LTG : )

Yeah I suspect Stern probably just figured this would be a "fun" thing to try. I doubt if they deliberately set out to antagonize people.

They're probably scratching their heads about it right now " How did we get everybody so PO'ed about this"??

I got my fingers crossed for ya Lloyd! Your place deserves one.

Quoted from kpg:

Wow! Now THIS is worth buying sight unseen. Sign me up!

Quoted from someoneelse:

People obviously feel priced out of the party. It's a small community, pinheads have heavily supported and in the end saved Stern in bad times making it possible for them to continue business. Now that the company is healthy again and it's time to celebrate they feel like Stern is leaving them behind, targeting the anniversary BM66 only to the high rollers and attaching all kinds of strings to the purchase of the machine. Of course the average Stern customer is upset and expressing this on Pinside.

I think this sums it up nicely. People already were not happy with the price hikes and the "minimum sales price" for the distros (preventing price competition that benefits the consumer) and now this.

Now if the next title returns to current prices... say $6700 for a Premium (which is hardly a bargain) then people will get over it.

If it ends up higher I hope they know what they are doing... people already are having a hard time justifying this kind of cash on something they know they'll probably be getting tired of in a couple months.

Quoted from o-din:

Martin Landau is one of the greatest actors of our time and he played twin brothers in this one and was great. If you want to see some of his best work, watch the early episodes of Mission Impossible.

Such fantastic actors they managed to get for the bad guys in every episode of the original Columbo. The lack of good actors to put against Peter Falk when they tried a reboot in the 80's (or 90's?) really killed it.

I mean "Norm" from Cheers? Really? Somebody thought THAT was a good idea? Ouch.

Quoted from o-din:

still enjoy watching Columbo re-runs whenever possible.

You and me both. See I knew you had good taste

Quoted from GAP:

Here is Video #2. 6+ min, showcasing 2 modes completed, Extra ball and Multiball. I don't like the angle of this video, because its straight on and washes out the colors on the LCD. nothing wrong with the LCD, its the angle the video is being shot.

I'd increase the pitch on that game. For a Stern it seems like it's playing in slow motion. Do most of you guys set your games to play that slow?

Thanks for the vid though - most appreciated.

Look at the clip art purple penguin they put on the crane to make it "fit" the theme. Love the toy but why not put the grinning Penguin himself on with a sticker? This just looks too forced and half assed at the same time.

I'd have to peel that off day one

Others will undoubtedly love it.

Quoted from labnip:

rarehero , what's the matter dude? you offended when a dude married to a latina, who grew up in a barrio in tejas and runs a company in mexico types in spanish?

Careful. You may just become Pezpunk's "outrage of the day".

He's always watching and waiting to strike
