Quoted from merccat:My projector supports SVideo input which looks a million times better than when I tried upscaling to HDMI.
Yeah it's no Blue Ray as someone else pointed out the Audio track is fantastic.Edit: The despecialized versions are awesome! Guess its time to retire the LD.
You might want to check your screen size settings. I'm pretty sure the Death Star isn't supposed to be oval.
We aren't allowed to post the pic here?
It's a widebody. It's crammed full of stuff. Upper playfield, Skateball bally outlanes. Probably not gonna be my cup of tea.
Surprised they are going back to the widebody concept after DI but I guess that's what people want?
Quoted from cait001:Not pretending either. Serious hype for it. It's like Dialed In sneezed and became a widebody. I hope it shoots as good as it looks.
Doesn't resemble DI at all.
Quoted from MinusWorlds:Yup, not even close to cool. Glad I saw it an hr ago first but to do that when other people haven't seen it or jump in the thread to get hyped up is garbage. Reminds me of this asshole who said "Han Solo dies" in the middle of a meeting the day of release. People suck.
So wait...are any of the folks calling neil an asshole people who HADN'T already seen the pic?
Quoted from Pin_-_K:WHY is ANYONE that even REMOTELY wanted to wait for the BIG reveal even READING this thread ?
Boggles the mind don't it?
Quoted from flashinstinct:Now all jack needs to do is drop the price a little bit and see stern cry in a corner because if this priced right they will sell a boat load.
Nothing about this game screams "price drop."
JJP is going for a different market obviously.
Quoted from rottenrobert1313:Im digging the pop placement and the in lane, out lane, in lane on the left side.
Stellar wars pop bumper makes a comeback!
Quoted from Wolfmarsh:What's wrong with Johnny Depp? I think the character is awesome, it's not pirates with out Captain Jack Sparrow.
Depp is awesome. Some disagree with his politics. Regardless it's pirates, pretty silly to be surprised he's on the game.
Well, since this is a stern thread now, I'll chime in.
Jjp games are $8500, sterns are $5200.
Stern is still gonna be on top. They are still the only sane choice for operators and they are still gonna outsell jjp in home sales.
Dialed in is great and this looks good too, for a wide body. But all I see these games hurting is sterns LE sales.
Jjp is delivering for their intended customers and market, no doubt.
Quoted from Drenden:That’s not an accurate comparison. A JJP standard is equal to that (and I use the term equal very loosely) to a stern LE so they are in roughly the same arena. JJP just doesn’t make stripped out full scale zizzle machines so they don’t have one at that 5k price point.
I'm not comparing the machines, I'm comparing the price. It's accurate to say a route operator can buy a Stern pro for around $5000, while a new JJP is gonna cost around $9,000. That's about 8,000-10,000 more paid games even to break even for an op when you factor in location split.
That's why it's funny to me that people are suggesting Pirates is going to put Stern out of business or make them also-rans.
It's not going to happen, just like JJP isn't suddenly going to start putting out stripped down $5,000 games like some have suggested they should. I agree with you that Stern is going to have to up their LE game - big time - if they want to compete for the LE dollars with the quality of games JJP is putting out, but that's not their bread and butter.
The weirdest thing to me is the vitrol and seething anger towards Stern you see dripping from posts throughout this thread, which really should be a celebratory JJP thread. Never ceases to amaze me how personally people take this stuff - everybody is acting like they are young actresses and Stern is Harvey Weinstein. It doesn't surprise me but I always think it's kind of strange. Stern is just trying to make a buck, just like JJP. They didn't poison your goldfish.
Quoted from Skyemont:Anyone who comes in this thread and talks about Stern (why I don't know), needs help. This game looks fantastic. Sure the price is high, but you get what you pay for. If you can't afford JJP games, there are plenty of other companies making games. Just saying.
The people bringing up Stern are all huge JJP fans.
Quoted from Pinballlew:They made it a point to express that no two games on JJPOTC will play the same. We will see if they pulled that off.
OK, Who brought the dog?!
Quoted from o-din:But would you like me to tell you about the bath I took on BM66 premium just to move it along quickly? Water under the bridge now and I don't dwell on it.
I'm interested in hearing about this bath. How much did you lose?
Quoted from PanzerFreak:Yes I'm no longer sure if I'm buying POTC after the changes.
Hey! Look who loves Stern again
