I absolutely love Guardians. Almost as much as I love the Avengers.

I'm trying to keep my hopes down, because the Avengers pin let me down in a lot of ways.

Please, please, please let Guardians be a good game.

Theme wise, I would love to see the following:

- the Milano
- Knowhere
- Yondu and the ravagers
- dancing groot topper
- an amazing licensed soundtrack with hits from starlord's walkman
- Cosmo the space dog
- Nova corps

Gameplay wise, I am hoping for:

- No ship on a bouncy spring.
- Physical ball locks in either Knowhere or the Milano
- A couple fast orbits
- A ball trick like Mist multiball where you have to knock the ball loose like attacking the Dark Aster
- Sounds from the actors or at least a good impersonator
- Actual movie clips

If it's movie based, which is probably is, I'm not sure how the villains will go. Ronan the Accuser is a decent villain, but you can't really combine that with the GotG2 movie. I also don't know if the parts of the Ego storyline they used for the movie will really fill out a full pin experience.

Quoted from colonel_caverne:

I see your point but if it is so confidential why not just dodge his question?

Because people make mistakes, especially after some beers.

It's generally considered good etiquette to keep stuff like that to yourself and not post it on a public forum.

If the art is hand drawn, I'm really hoping it pushes the right buttons for me.

Looking for more comics than disney XD.

Quoted from Aurich:

People are forgetting about the one genuinely exciting thing Stern has to offer for the future (in my mind) and that's the unveiling of Keith Elwin's first game. More than just Borg and Ritchie even with JT out.

JJP POTC has hand drawn art, but it's very "on film", and I'd be shocked if GOTG is allowed to stray from the movie looks. Especially as almost no one actually knows the comics, the movie look is going to be the draw. I could be wrong! But I doubt it.

I'm totally cool with a hand drawn copy of the movie portrayal of Rocket. That was pretty good.

I'm just not a fan of the animation style on the disney Rocket & Groot. Rocket looks like the cat from the old Paula Abdul video.

Quoted from GhostThruster:

How about that GotG hype?

I'm especially hype because there is no purchase decision for me.

I won't pay the prices they are asking for a toy, so my hype level is totally contained to the release and how cool it will be to have a GotG pin! It doesn't have to be the best pin ever produced for me to drop cash in it, play, and enjoy the hell out of it.

There's a lot less pressure on it being perfect when there is no question that I won't be buying it.

Quoted from Who-Dey:

Does anyone else think that Yondu would make a great bash toy?

Yondu's yaka arrow would be a cool cannon toy.

Here's one for you.

Quoted from o-din:

Nice!
And I'm not ashamed to admit I sat thru that whole movie trying to figure out which character Vin Diesel was.
Cracked me up when Groot turned around with that look on his face after taking out all those dudes .

Have you checked out the second one?

#430 6 years ago
Quoted from o-din:

They don't like you drinking or smoking weed in theaters anymore. And drive-ins are all but a thing of the past in So Cal.

That's a bummer. Weed isn't legal for anything here in SC yet, but we have some movie theaters here that will bring beer and food to your seat. My only gripe is how expensive the beer is.

Make sure and check it out when it hits TV, it's a fun movie.

#435 6 years ago
Quoted from Goronic:

If you like the humor in GoTG the next Thor is getting great reviews and is hilarious.

I can't wait to go see Thor, I already have my ticket.

Quoted from o-din:

Will do! The theater experience is getting kind of pricy, and I'm too cheap to go rent it on VHS when it's going to be on TV for free anyway.
It would take one heck of a movie to make me want to go pay to see it.

Yeah it gets pricey these days when you add drinks and snacks. The Marvel movies get my money and that's pretty much it.

I think it's too soon for archer to be guardians, can't wait to see though.

Quoted from Who-Dey:

I wish we could see some gameplay footage before the Dead Flip stream. The suspense is killing me for real.

Is there a date/time for the dead flip stream yet?

#743 6 years ago

I'll be in Orlando during IAAPA again this year. We went last year and it's a pretty amazing expo.

We weren't going to go this year because it didn't really fit the schedule, but I may have to sneak over myself to give Guardians a try.
