Quoted from Chicoman:Modern Day Stern pins just are ok. Yup...I said it. Ask any experienced pinball player. You play an old Williams game 1990's and compare that to a modern day Stern. The old Williams games are just better playing pinball machines.
This was the attitude on this forum up until about 2011/2012 and then things changed quickly. There are some people that still prefer the 90’s games but you guys are a clear minority now.
I have several 90’s machines and enjoy the B/W just fine, but when you put Doctor Who next to say Iron Maiden LE the difference is readily apparent. Everything from the light show, to the display animations, to the artwork, to the rules is just better now. Stern is delivering an incredible package these days and the technology is just better than it was in the 90’s.
Back on topic, FGY is a cool game. I had one for years and loved it. Interesting layout with one of the best toys in pinball history. Great call outs. The low resolution cabinet art was not my favorite but that’s a concern for most.
