New art looks like garbage. Mixed-resolution busy mess. Looks like N64 textures mixed with photos. Whoever is in charge of AP's marketing should be fired, releasing massive close-up snippets of horrible art as a "tease".
Another fail for American Pinball.
Quoted from erak:Remember It's only very, very recently Stern pins started having decent art.
...and those are the ones people get excited for and willing to spend crazy high NIB prices on. I don't mind Sega art if I'm buying a Sega pin for $600 or $800! For $7000 though!??!?! F NO! Too many NICE looking pinball options in the NIB market for a poor art game to exist.
Quoted from mof:Question: When was the last time photoshopped clip art was used for an unlicensed theme?

Are you thinking that they might have licensed Houdini? The "hanging upside down" image does look like the Adrien Brody Houdini.
Quoted from mof:Nope, the $50 question is a pinball history quiz question... name the last pin that was photoshopped clip art AND unlicensed.

Hmmm...I was gonna guess High Roller Casino, but I just looked at it and it isn't Photoshopped...hmmmm
Quoted from vdojaq:Is Sterns low resolution, pixelated cabinet art any better
That's a 2005 game. It's 2017. Stern stopped with those types of cabinets in 2011.
Quoted from DBLM:Some new art on AP's website. Curious how this fits together.

Why do they keep showing these snippets that look like 90's Photoshop vomit? Just show the F'ing game so we can see how shitty it looks in one go!
