Just wait until the final 5 minutes before watching basketball. The score before that never really matters.
Now, back to guns!
Quoted from SiN13:Now Cary Hardy posted another video about this mocking another pinball enthusiast and throws up a quote on screen from Adolf Hitler to strengthen his argument.
What? Hitler is not good for maintaining sponsors?
Quoted from thechakapakuni2:Lionsgate doesn’t like to license guns?

If you use a real gun you have to pay the manufacturer not just lionsgate
Well weather you're upset about gun or not the game looks like a blast and the layout looks really cool.
Quoted from SiN13:I'm done with this gun debate. I've sat here for 24 hours reading and watching what people have to say. Now Cary Hardy posted another video about this mocking another pinball enthusiast and throws up a quote on screen from Adolf Hitler to strengthen his argument. A new low in the pinball enthusiast community.
Opinions are like a**holes. Everyone has one and they all stink. A lot of people with microphones and cameras would do well to remember this

Falling apart in the 3rd. Come on. Can’t stand the Knicks.
Quoted from Asael:I am still not sure if I will buy this game or not. I like the JW theme a lot. No guns in the artwork of the playfield and cabinet is one thing. And I can live with no guns if it is a "brand thing", as long as we will see the action on the video display. So far I like the style of the artwork of the game and I think the layout could be a fun and thrilling shooter. But if it turns out that the video assets they use are also more family friendly oriented and the code has no "moments", Stern will not get my money. So far all I have seen from the gameplay are car action and judo fights, but JW is an adult theme and not a disney family movie! Perhaps they should have gone with an other theme instead of JW, if they can't do the theme justice.
I still doubt we will see kills like at 2:33 on the LCD Monitor:
Stern if your watching this clip I see how going into the weapons chest would work perfectly with this scene as wick smashes the glass and grabs weapons.
Nobody wants a tame lame wick game.

I went to Facebook and checked the Premium reveal as scheduled by the cool Commodore 64 post (Hoping we'll see more Commodore 64) but i noticed the bacbox art is same on the left AND the right. Am I seeing things?
Quoted from Fsdre:Was the code name for this game go woke go broke? This game should be called John woke!
Nah, code name was "Trigger".

It's a commodore logo, but it's actually a vic-20 (c64 came out many years later). In the movie, they are using a generic PC monitor behind wood paneling because the vic-20 resolution wasn't even that good (nor was the command line green with black background)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VIC-20#/media/File:VIC_20_Splash_Screen_Screenshot.gif
Many on reddit ask why they used such primitive hardware in the movie, and most answer that it's likely because being that those computers rarely had any sort of storage (and when they did it was a slow, small and very literal tape drive), that nobody could infiltrate their system with a hack.

Cool.. I remember the Vic-20, never owned one but My friend had a C64 and I had an Atari 1200xl, we'd argue all the time about which one was better, we still had a tape drive too. Would love to see more of it.
Wow! Anyone know who wrote it?
Looks like egg on the face to me when you see it in Layman's terms like that in a news article. Sad.

I'm confused why people are using the word woke, which is used for people that believe in racial equality and social justice. Woke has nothing to do with guns or the 2nd Amendment, totally different issue, it seems like if you want to insult someone you could at least use words that make sense. But then again, this is a fluff piece that seems like it was written by AI or a 12 year old.

Words and context change with time. “Woke” doesn't mean what it did a few years ago, or to someone who considers themself “woke” by your definition. When used in a negative context, woke means “Leftist Agenda.” The left is generally anti-gun, therefore “John Woke.”
Thanks for coming to my TED Talk. 
Forget the guns. A real John Wick pinball machines is plastered with shattered heads and brain splatter. Isn’t that why people love these movies?

Ha! Well I'm super lefty and woke and have owned and shot guns all my life. And most of my lefty friends and family own guns, they just don't constantly talk about them. So I don't think calling no guns on John Wick as woke works, it seems lazy and clueless. But then, that probably describes most people using that word as an insult 
A bit confused by the car in the Pro vs the Premium. So as I understand it, they both have the muscle car, but it only moves on the Premium? Is this correct?
Personally, I am leaning toward purchasing the Pro. It does not seem so different than the Premium. Plus, the translite and cabinet art appeal to me more.
Btw: just played an epic game of Maiden. God damn that is one fine Stern machine even after all these years.
Quoted from gandamack:A bit confused by the car in the Pro vs the Premium. So as I understand it, they both have the muscle car, but it only moves on the Premium? Is this correct?
Yeah, from what I can tell so far on the Pro it's stagnant, front bash only. It probably isn't that bad but what irks me is the drop target on the Pro. It's more of a gate than a drop target that keeps you from going in and out of the club, a seemingly important area of the game, so by removing it? Its seems like it would be easier and boring. I really think they should've left that in and wish they would reconsider. The Premium moves like the LE.
I searched Vic_VP here and didn’t find anything. No one talking yet about Stern paying no name YouTube virtual pinball guys to get first hands on this and give glowing reviews?

It was mentioned briefly, but then Stern started taking away peoples guns to distract them from the real story
In all seriousness tho do we actually think Stern paid them? Seems like they’d jump on the chance for all this free publicity

Paid or not, the guy had a Royal Rumble prior to this. I saw nothing but virtual pinball content before that. Hard to imagine he wouldn’t be grateful, and therefore bias, to the person who sent him a brand new pin.

Liberals are generally anti-gun. Leftists are not

If I remember right, Vic VP purchased a Godfather CE as his first pin and I believe got a Toy Story 4 afterwards so he has owned a couple of machines before this. He is in the Godfather owners club thread sometimes.
Don't forget, people: killing people with swords and knives is woke. If you're woke, you acknowledge the negative impacts on marginalized communities of systemic racism, advocate for women to have bodily autonomy, and slaughter people with bladed weapons.
Quoted from Tranquilize:Deleted post
I’m so confused. Maybe I like guns now? 
Quoted from rwmech5:So how does the game shoot?
Like a gun! *chefs kiss*
