Quoted from flynnibus:The big question is what will Lyman do with it. Because it's a pretty avg WPC game on it's own. The CGC additions are welcome and the new dots look great.. but at it's core it was still the 'just another shoot each shot 3 times' late WPC game. The quickdraw/shootout standups are its only standout.
You make a good argument that this "pretty avg game on its own" has a good chance of being the best of the remakes.
MM, AFM. and MB are all at their core just the same old 'shoot each shot 3 times' rulesets. Doesn't seem to hurt their popularity.
Lyman's involvement is a literal game changer, signifying that this remake has much more upside to provide a new game experience than any previous remake.
I had played MM to death before the remake announcement and had no interest in it.
I felt AFMr offered cooler bling upgrades from the original compared to MM. I find it's a better experience playing it than the original.
MB was kinda boring before, and I didn't see much difference with the remake when I played it.
CCr's standing in pinball is yet unknown, but it's definitely got the most potential to be a better, newer, modernized improved version than any of its remake predecessors.
The new software is the key variable.
