Quoted from Rockytop:

A little news of of replay fx. Lyman didn't confirm the title, but said he had more time to code this game than any other pre release and he said he thought the game was going to be awesome. Of course, I wouldn't expect him to say it was terrible, but Lyman is my favorite person coding games and it's great to know he's had a lot of time on the game already.

Since Lyman is coding, the style of the artwork along with whether Stern fixes the playfield ghosting problems will decide whether this game sells at all. Nobody wants a bunch of hand drawn or clip art of androgynous shriveled old men.

Quoted from benheck:

I like to pop in here every month and remind people that nobody, and I mean NOBODY gave a crap about Metallica... until they saw it.
Aerosmith - regardless of quality - is a much more mainstream band with very well known songs.
If rumors are true and this is Borg, Lyman, Dirty Donnie and first color Stern display, a lot of haters are going to be whipping out their wallets.

It just seems that metal heads are more boisterous in the pinball hobby than other types of rock. More mainstream forms of rock don't seem to get much hype in the pinball community, at least not on Pinside.

A combination of Aerosmith, Borg, Lyman, Dirty Donnie and first color Stern display may get me to buy eventually only if the playfields are not defective and the gameplay is good.

Quoted from vid1900:

That's because you can't really get hyped about a whitebread band like Aerosmith.

Not sure what you mean. I would say Aerosmith is much less "whitebread " (your racist word) than Metallica and AC/DC. Remember "Walk this Way" with Run DMC?

http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=whitebread

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aerosmith

"Aerosmith is an American rock band, .......Their style, which is rooted in blues-based hard rock"

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blues

"Blues is a genre[2] and musical form originated by African Americans in the Deep South of the United States around the end of the 19th century. The genre developed from roots in African-American work songs and European-American folk music."

Quoted from vid1900:

I hope "whitebread" has not become a racist word.
In my time, it always meant something that was very plain or generic.

Under that definition the same could be said for almost all metal groups.

There are only a handful of bands/musicians in each genre of modern music that actually are not majorly derivative while also not selling out.
Any band on a pinball machine will fail one or both.
