Weird thing is, I think almost everyone in this thread is spot on, pro and con. But for me, at LEAST 50% of the fun of pinball is sound, light, theme, code and art integration. Put a game on mute and it's not worth playing. At a loud location if I can't hear the game, hear the mechs, hear the callouts, hear the music, it's almost boring. There's a reason Williams hyped the sound tech in Indiana Jones so hard when it came out.

While everyone dumping on the game's features compared to other games features are perfectly reasonable to do so, this machine, with its license and double LCDs has the potential to lock in all of the above as well as any other game, ever. We're talking about access to the most recognizable sound design library in human history (Steve Ritchie and Ben Burtt, yes please), with characters and mythos second pretty much only to Jesus, Santa Claus and Superman.

For people like me, if the "experience" is dialed in (heh) we're just not going to give a shit if there isn't as much going on under the table.

Quoted from Jargus:

Should be fun to see what Ritchie has to say Saturday at NWPAS. I was looking forward to the show before. I'm even more excited now.

My thoughts exactly. Any chance they surprise us with one?

Good god. Star Trek. Haha.

#3204 6 years ago

Jesus Christ people, ask some questions about Star Wars!

#3208 6 years ago

Were the four characters (sans 3PO and Chewie) dictated by Lucas Film or was that a Stern decision?

#3209 6 years ago

<groan> Opportunity wasted. :-/

Quoted from Rob_G:

It was actually Greg that made that faux paus, I think Steve just carried on with it slyly...
Rob

Nope. Steve did it once too.
