Quoted from dung:I would say artwork regressed. Paul Feris did the artwork for Phantom, I also really love what he did on hook as it is a beautiful game. The sideart on Twister is his as well and looks pretty sweet, but the pf's really go down hill after Batman Forever.
Yes I agree. New pinballs in the last 10 years have been a license. I was so glad to see what Metallica did with their game. When I look at my STTNG and see hand drawn art on the playfield, it makes me happy. The ultimate license, Star Trek, still found a way to have art on it (and a cheesy translight).
