I did not like road show the first time I played it. I have no idea why because I now think it's a really good game. A friend also went through the same dislike/like process. The shots are challenging but not impossible and the sounds and speech are good. As others above, I do not care for the country song but don't mind it really since it doesn't play that often.
Good pin for just under $2k if you can find it. Not too bad to shop either, despite the ramps.
Also, other than the heads, it really bears no resemblance to funhouse -- maybe I was expecting that the first time I played it.
