Quoted from Hazoff:if you don't like a pin for theme or gameplay etc. then the display will not save it, why is this so difficult to understand.
On the flip side, if you do like the theme, the display will greatly increase the enjoyment. I couldn't care less about Woz but I still loved the hell out of seeing the scarecrow dance loop on the insert coin screen or the witch flying at me when I drained. Got and GB have beautiful source material to pull from. They could have had incredible animations and clips during game play that sure, might not be seen by the current player all the time but would draw the attention of anyone else in the room. Instead they have dots. Which, I agree, do the job, but why not go for something that looks better. Why not the actual clips?!
An example that stood out on twitch was the "who brought the dog?" mode.
/beating a dead horse.
I am not trying to sell you on The Hobbit, or even Woz, but rather on the idea of stern stepping up their game. Will the DMD ruin Ghostbusters? No. Would an lcd or even Color dots have made it much better? I think so.
Also, not sure if I am getting the reference to Fargo.
Quoted from Hazoff:The Fargo reference is that of confusion, who wouldn't want a nicer display? I would and so would you and everyone else but it kept coming up like I'm saying give me the worst display you can please, one more time, I would rather have GB's with the DMD than Hobbit with LCD due to theme and from what I've seen thus far gameplay (yet to play GB's but TH wasn't my style) would I like GB's to have a nice 27" HD display, well certainly. Really no way to rebut this and yet its been attempted, hence the confusion. I'm such a dick.

My apologies. Apparently I have no frame of reference. Like a child who wanders into the middle of a movie . . .
Quoted from jroakland:If that's the ghost busters crew pictured...they gonna scare alot of ghost, I don't think I wanna see the movie they are some u, gly, ugly busters....im sure no nice thigh gap either!! Sorry ass movie already, damn it...save us G.B pinball
Back on this again? Please, tell me which of the original Ghosbusters you thought was the sexiest.
Quoted from frankmac:» YouTube video
A few mods added.
Ghostbuster ghost flasher toy and Ecto-1
The first 30 sec of that video summed up a majority of my GB play time: Scoleri Brothers, random super jackpot, drain.
Quoted from frankmac:That is my son playing. Not bad for 10yrs old.
Wasn't judging the play, more my experience with GB. Was actually surprised how quickly he got Scoleri and a super jackpot. I am still not sure how I feel about random Supers popping up throughout games.
