I was at MGC all day and night Saturday. I played Iron Maiden as much as I could. I just wanted to play more and more. I currently own METLE, GB, SW, Goldeneye, and JP for Stern titles. I just purchased Iron Maiden. I think it will go down as the best Stern game to date. The four flippers add a new dimension and challenge to the game. There are no cheap drains from bad angles and the shots really feel smooth and satisfying. The sound effects are awesome and the music really lends itself well to the modes and overall feel of the game. I was at the seminar with the entire Stern design team and asked about how they got the song list. Keith explained that Maiden gave him a list of songs and Keith picked the ones that lent themselves best for the modes etc...itās a masterful job on all spectrums. From the art, to the flow, to the call outs. You will not be disappointed. Up the Irons!!!
I have owned 9 Stern machines(including Goldeneye and Jurassic Park). I have purchased LE's in the past. I currently own 6 Sterns, including METLE and the Iron Maiden Pro. This game is an absolute Grand Slam in any version you get, all though, the gameplay will be slightly different. I seriously believe it might be Stern's best machine ever.
One mode that is largely affected by the different versions is the Flight of Icarus. You get huge points by criss crossing the left and right ramps. With the Premium/LE the ball will lock in the Mummy diverter if you have that qualified, thereby taking away your combo bonus and flow and timing from the feed from either ramp that is available on the Pro. All though, you get the advantage of being able to knock out a ball for multiball in the HMM inspired sarcophagus ball locking mechanism so there are some point advantages with the Premium/LE also.
Just things to consider. Either way, your going to have a huge smile on your face and no regret when you purchase whatsoever! Up the Irons!
Quoted from wontwa:You sure about that? I noticed in the stream that the diverter closed when a mode started (Aces High is where I believe I saw this), then re-opened once the mode was complete.
Positive! Check out 11:25 of the Dead Flip stream...
