My 2cents: I only watched the video of a game being played . So I haven't played it yet.
Game is pretty, nice light show , color changing LED always makes it cooler/ prettier to play., bright colors, nice open pf that I love . I love Lawlor games , would love to have this one from what I see so far . Lot of my collection is Lawlor .
I have read most of this thread, lots of haters here, don't understand the hate, we need to support the smaller pinball manufacturers to keep Stern in check with pricing.
About the Complaints:
The bell on my Taxi is sometimes annoying, but it's part of the game, I leave it turned on , so what? The soundtrack on my RS is annoying, don't really love the theme, but game plays great, had it for 15 years. I look at the positives vs the negatives, and love it for what it's good at.
Cost: I never regret paying more for something of better quality, but have regretted settling for something less expensive because I didn't buy what I really wanted due to price difference. It's an expensive hobby ,yes, but less than airplanes and boats , and you can play pinball on a rainy stormy day... The other two hobbies not so much
