I waited till all the hate died down on GB and picked up a sweet fully dialed in & modded GB premium. I have a pretty diverse lineup for all ages, and every time I have family & friends over the 1st game they all want to play is GB. Is it hard...yes, but if you change a few things it makes it " easier " for the novice player. The call outs, light show, artwork, and play of the game is awesome. For example last night my brothers gf came over and the only game she played was GB, then my brother said they went home and watched the movie. Do what your family wants, not what some pinsider says.
