Quoted from blueberryjohnson:For the knee jerk look at all the "assets/sculpts/mechs you get for the price, this game crushes a Stern Pro" don't forget that Stern Pros are frequently designed by some of the best and most experienced shot-layer-outers to ever do it, and that Stern code typically ends up at least very good and of sometimes great.
This isn't a knock on Spooky or this game. I hope Scooby Doo plays as good as the package looks. But shots and code—what we can't evaluate without playing or extensive video—are huge parts of the quality of a game.
Agreed, I'm mainly paying for layout and software - these are more important than art or sound or toys and that's what Spooky still has to demonstrate. We'll know more after the stream tomorrow.
