Doesn't he use it to cut the rope earlier in the movie when they are getting drug under. I seem to remember that.

So is the video mode going to let me shoot Jet Skiers?

As someone who got a Godzilla Pro, I think missing the bash toy shark that rises up and the upper playfield is a big miss to me. Prem is the only way for me. you probably bash the shark during some of the end hunts, and I bet you hit the boat for when you are Jaws.

Looks like the premium doesn't have a physical ball lock either. That makes me sad. I also hope that the shark bash toy can be hit multiple times before going back down under. I also think its cool that the lookout tower ramp does a 180 at the end before going back to the bottom play field.

I'm more concerned about if the shark bash toy is a one hit then goes back underneath, or if you will be able to hit it multiple times. The trailers so far show a one and done. If the later is the case then I think I would go Pro. I hope not though....

Hard to not go premium.
If all the lights go red when you're bashing the shit out of Jaws, that will be a cool moment that would be missing on the pro. Especially if the music does the buildup everytime you bash him like in the movie.

They must of snucked this ad in on the last patch?

Will these be an issue? They seem a bit exposed?
Don't think I ever notice screws out in middle of a playfield before. I would imagine it would scuffs the ball a bit.

It still makes me worried that the bash toy can only be hit once. It appeared up to three times in the video, only to be hit once, then go back under. I would feel more inclined toward the premium if I knew you could bash the shit out of it more than once. I was hoping to see that tonight. Kind of a letdown. My only other complaint is that the game doesn't really follow the movie. The movie is just there as a backdrop. Take the movie assets away, and it's just a game about hunting fish. I get that's what the movie is about; I just wish it followed the scenes in the movie more from start to finish.

That's one of my biggest issues. You play as Quint because it doesn't follow the movie. Your just hunting sharks and the Jaws movie is just there for the video side of it.

What's really putting me off on the game is that the main theme of the game is not Jaws but the Chum Bucket. Everything seems to revolve around hitting the chum bucket, which isn't very exciting toy.

I am hoping the Deadflip stream can redeem the game for me. I really want to like the game. Jaws is one of my favorite movies. What would pull me over the edge of getting the game would be that the shark toy can be bashed more than once. I get that the competitive player wouldn't care for this, but I want to bash the shit out of that shark while Dreyfus is yelling, "Hit it again," and Brody is yelling, "Kill it, quint!"

A lots changed in 6 years.

I get the art complaint, but I have had art commissioned before, and more art is more money. If you are going to give less art, give me my money worth in other places.

I think at Stern current price model, the only game worth the price is probably Elvira HOH. The house also eats the ball.

I'm surprised there is no footage of the game on location yet. While I do appreciate the Deadflip streams, they never let them blow the machine up for some reason. I want to see what is going on deep in the game code.

The Chum Bucket or the Shark? Which will get bashed the most?

Okay. The live stream has changed my mind. Game looks great.

Anyone got any HQ pics of the playfield at face view with the back lighting?

This game looks so brutal. No one but Elwin has gotten more than one Hunt. Elwin barely got 2. I watched every stream so far and it looks to be a heavy grind.

Anyone know how to start the Hunt? There so much going on during gameplay it's hard to tell. Is it smashing the Chum bucket or hitting the lit shots? Or both?
