God how can GB be on this list of design without laughing?

Guess I just have to not vote on this one. Spiderman isn't a 2016 game to me...sorry to be a debbie downer

I was close to removing GB and Spiderman for the very reasons you mentioned. However, eliminating GB felt wrong since there are different opinions out there. Let the people decide was my fall back.

Most torn on this one. Spiderman is tough on how to treat VE (art, code nominations make easier to justify). Again, I error on the side of let the people decide. Not perfect, I know. Debbie downer justified.

Haha! I mean it's not you, it's the year. Sad part is games like TBL & RZ aren't widely available like past years
EDIT: Then again I can ASSume they are better than WWE

I find John Trudeau did an incredible job with the Ghostbusters playfield. As far as the rest of that game... eh.

THe playfield on GB is designed good, but the parts used on it is a whole other story.

No pin is perfect. I was really excited to play GB when it was announced and still enjoy playing it now. The pro is pretty solid and a lot cheaper than the other pins. I think that counts for something.

Charlie Emery nailed it with Rob Zombie , perfect balance of chaos and control .
