Quoted from rai:Does the VE change the rules or just the names of the modes and the call outs?
Rules are basically the same; collect modes/villains on the way to Battle Royale. If you collect everything you get Super Hero.
The mode names have changed; DMD dots/callouts have changed, but the shots are essentially the same in the new modes.
Some people hate the callouts--esp. the "narrator" who is supposed to be Jonah Jameson. I think he's funny... sometimes. Kind of annoying, but that's just his character. He's a sarcastic a-hole anyway
Just played a Black Suit SpiderMan yesterday and compared to my SMVE... I really like the way mine plays better. The BSSM was nice and pretty; but the light lock arrow didn't register very often; the playfield inserts were ghosting like crazy (LED's) and it did seem like you couldn't light more than one mode without collecting a villain. (Plus the flipper buttons on the BSSM were sticking :O)
