I have so much difficulty taking anyone with tattoos on their fingers seriously. Thanks dad.

That's the stream host right there.

Will video of the stream be available right afterwards on YouTube? I will be driving home from work, and I hate having to watch TV on my phone while I'm driving.

Yep. Guy with the big beard and the glasses.

I'm getting a bad case of "straightenthehataphobia" from looking at these pictures of Jack! Please do not post anymore pictures.

Quoted from Manic:

I bet all those workers are thinking "dumb gringos waste thousands buying silly and unneeded toys"

Should be saying "gringos buying silly toys keep food on the table and a roof over my head."

YouTube video usually goes up 1 day after the stream ends.

Yeah running over pedestrians can be such a bother. Don't stream and drive

ECTO-1 Siren Topper! W00t!!!

I figured somebody would reply with this... can't argue with it either.

#7115 8 years ago

Ghostbusters topper is 100% kickass. I'll always take fancy lights over an action figure or something. KISS is my favorite topper I've seen in person I think.

You kidding. They would be like, "wish quality toys like this came out of pinatas".

Hmmm.

Yo, that ramp is fast!

The game looks and sounds great.

#7119 8 years ago

After all the amazing hype here I did watch a little of the stream and guess what... it's just another pinball machine And I'm officially sick of the GB theme (if I wasn't already)... didn't hear any call outs??

In all seriousness I think we need to see the magnet kickers and hologram to differentiate this thing from all the others. Then I'll be hyped!

that topper looks like a fisher price toy.

#7121 8 years ago

The ball drains so fast on some of the guys that it looks brutal.

Quoted from Manic:

I definitely see things I like. The ball sometimes rockets out of the pops instead of just losing momentum and being pooped out. There were a bunch of nice hand drawn DMD animations like the flying library books and captured ghosts rather than barely decipherable red movie clips. It looks like they're trying to make the skillshot worthwhile rather than just some low amount of points (+10% score, +super jackpot, etc.).

Maybe just me, but these are positive things on top of already very good looking package. I wish this were the "average game", I'm very excited to get my hands on one.

#7123 8 years ago

I was looking for the gameplay video and found this.

pretty funny. I don't know if it was shown before or not. I stumbled on it on youtube.

#7124 8 years ago

It sounds nice aside from the pop bumper noises. The music is varied and really fitting. That multiball sequence intro was really, really cool.

It got better when Dwight played it and knew what he was doing

#7126 8 years ago

Best topper ever! Buying it. Will look amazing on the pro / premium with the Ecto-1 on the cabinet art.

#7127 8 years ago

I'd have serious deja vu playing this game. The ascending orchestra hits when it tallies up the score is EXACTLY like NGG. A little quicker but exactly the same. And sounding like a WMS is not a bad thing btw.

#7128 8 years ago

This game needs some custom flipper bats and some green or purple rubbers.

#7129 8 years ago

Gameplay looks awesome, the original music is great as is just the main theme song playing during general play, so many cool sound affects and DMD animations already. Yeah, this game is going to go down as one of Stern's best and all time best sellers.

#7130 8 years ago

That Hitler video cracked me up. Very excited about this pin.

#7131 8 years ago

Pro looks like a good buy, looks fun. May end up on my route!

#7132 8 years ago

OK...I missed it.

Stern announced a topper for GB?

It's on their Facebook page on the "pre livestream" video right at the beginning.

#7134 8 years ago

Topper! It lights up. Slits on the far gray left circle thing could be for a siren? Looks awesome. I don't know if there are rotating beacon lights inside of it but the lighting effects did provide the look of the lights spinning.

Wait a minute thats the real topper?

#7136 8 years ago
Quoted from Hazoff:

Yup! It was shown in the live pre-steam.

#7137 8 years ago

no doubt in my mind,that gonna be a classic as a 90's B/W

#7138 8 years ago

did they have a pro in a premium cabinet for the stream?

#7139 8 years ago

Lol, when the game was in attract mode I heard Venkman say "Don't shut it off, I'm warning you". Damn I've never been this excited about a pin before. I'm sure it's partially due to me being a huge Ghostbusters fan, watching the films dozens of times as a kid, having all the toys, etc haha.

#7140 8 years ago

I dont know about that topper.......Maybe its a prototype and is going to get a little more polish.

#7141 8 years ago

Looks to be in classic Stern fashion of speed and brutality. Looking forward to seeing the Pre/Le in action. I wish the track that plays during the skill shot was the main theme music. Stern should start allowing the option of the player to choose the main music that plays like Met and Kiss in every game, also make it easy for the owner to add there own tracks via USB. Game looks great.

#7142 8 years ago

Not to impressed w/ the video play of it so far. Sorry guys.

#7143 8 years ago

Has anyone seen them hit the right ramp yet? Want to see how that works

#7144 8 years ago

That's a nice full featured looking Pro! I like the sounds, display and lighting effects. Now that's the way to tie in a theme!

#7145 8 years ago

Can't wait to see the LE

#7146 8 years ago

I imagine that on the video mode, when you get the card wrong, the shaker goes off when you're electric shocked.

They should stay true to the movie and make it unwinnable.

#7148 8 years ago

So who wants to buy my starship troopers?
