This is the new reality it seems, the demand for getting games out is exceeding the manufacturers ability to finish the coding, therefore we have the current situation where I doubt we will ever see a new game be released with even close to finished programming. It requires faith in the maker that they will follow up and complete the game, something unfortunately Stern has repeatedly failed to do, doing great damage to their reputation. Whether the faith that many have placed in JJP with WOZ will be justified is yet to be determined.
It really doesn't matter how fun a game is in it's current state IMO, if there are things on the playfield that don't work because the code isn't finished, that is unacceptable.
