Quoted from Guinnesstime:

I'm ready. Bring on the Star Wars sh*tstorm!

Quoted from scarybeard:

No, its not a 'one click' filter. But it IS a filter.
PHOTOSHOP > Filter > Stylize > find edges > Edit > Fade find edges > mode: Multiply > ~30% or so.
I use it all the time. Then fiddle with some levels, and some noise reduction, and you have something that looks more or less 'drawn' with a little touch up and brush strokes. Its 20 minutes of work vs a few days of work actually drawing and rendering real artwork Zombie Yetti style.
If Stern asked me to do the artwork as-is on the Star Wars table, I'd charge ~ $3,000 for a weeks photoshop work. If they produce 6,000 machines, thats $0.50 per machine to cover my art costs.
If stern approached me to do the Ghostbusters playfield as-is as completely original hand-drawn art, That would probably take up to 2 months costing anywhere between $15,000 - $20,000. For six thousand units that's $2.50 - $3.30 per machine to cover my costs. Now imagine you got a GOOD artist and not just me to work on it. lets say you add $10 - $20 per machine to get an artist like Stan Lee or J Scott Campbell to do your artwork. Peoples heads would explode.
...or we can just photoshop this playfield in a week and get it out the door.

Quoted from DerRoland:

Q: why returned the left ramp on the pro behind the backboard?
Q: why has the death star a nose on the botton?

Quoted from unigroove:

Steve mentioned in his seminar that the player has to choose a character at the beginning of the game, like on GoT. I found that a horrible feature on GoT. Never watched the show, so have no clue what to choose. Same with SW. Never watched the movies, so probably not a game for me. I seriously wonder how adding such choices to the game is helping novice players to appreciate it.

Quoted from Aurich:

I thought it was full of interesting ideas, and I suspect lots of people will have a lot of fun with it.
I just don't see myself as one of them.
As a big Star Wars fan it didn't click with me, the magic of the theme wasn't there. That's just a personal thing. This looks better for people who aren't actually giant fans and won't care about nitpicky shit that doesn't feel right, or who don't use ridiculous words like "magic" when thinking about the game.
The LCD style and animations reminded me of a slot machine, just a mash of different things from the movies popping up all over. For me that's not a good thing, but I bet it works great on location with casual players who see all the shit flying around. I'd route this for sure if I was an op, it will earn.
If I could sum it up I'd say that I'd prefer a game that was more story immersive, more focused, and they had a different vision for this that's more stack-heavy, more chaotic, more tons of things going on. Just a personal preference. It's probably because I love the idea of the theme so much, like I said, if you're not pre-biased you might not care.
Still curious to play it and experience it in person!
But the deal killer really is the layout. It's boring. We've seen it too many times. I'm not paying thousands of dollars for it, doesn't matter how good the code is. I can buy video games for code. I buy pins for the physical experience, and this one is dull. Ritchie played it safe, did what he's done a ton of times already; it will flow and be fast, and it's not even vaguely interesting. No crazy shots, nothing that interacts with the ball, just straight up fan layout. If you've owned a modern Ritchie you've played it already. I have ACDC, I had Star Trek, no need to rebuy something so similar. (Not the same! But close enough to feel like it.)
No video was going to change that, probably why after a bit I got bored and closed the stream. I was just watching the LCD screen, the actual ball play wasn't compelling.
