Quoted from chuckwurt:

For anyone that doesn’t know Zepp all that well, here’s a playlist of songs I came up with from listening all day. I think these would work well with the game:
Houses of the Holy
Dyer maker
Ramble on
Black dog
Good times bad times
Fool in the rain
Misty mountain top
Dazed and confused
Whole lotta love
Trampled under foot
Dancing days
What is and what should never be
The Ocean
Friends (could be a cool eery mode)
Nobody’s fault but mine
The song remains the same.
Rock and roll
Heartbreaker
Traveling riverside blues
Immigrant song
When the levee breaks
Over the hills and far away.
Communication Breakdown
Hey hey what can I do
Going to California (game over music)
Kashmir
Bring it on home

All good, if they can only have a few I'd say:

Black Dog
Rock and Roll
Communication Breakdown
Immigrant Song
Whole Lotta Love
Tangerine
I Can't Quit you Baby
What is and What Should Never Be
Since I've been Loving You
Heartbreaker
Celebration Day
Battle of Evermore
Kashmir

ok, heavy on the early stuff...that's the way I roll!

Quoted from pinballwil:

Looks like the hype is already over before the release.

Patience, young grasshopper!

Quoted from thechakapakuni:

So we getting photos of young LZ or Grandpa LZ?[quoted image]

I hope the oldsters...sexy!

Plus, Bill Burr has apparently joined the band (on the far right), so the callouts will be funnier!

Quoted from Rezdog:

Bring which one home?
[quoted image]

LOL...my nickname for my GF is "Feather", so I think I'll take that one home

I'm usually a pro guy for Stern. I'm in no rush. Wait to see how it shoots.

I'm still a year behind on new Stern releases...too much great stuff to choose from. I still need to pick up a JP2 and EHOH.

#595 3 years ago

Cabinet and BG?

That's a classic Zeppelin style! Taken directly from Led Zeppelin III

Busy and psychedelic, yet it breathes.

I like it.

#603 3 years ago

LZ III is a great album. If they get the 10 songs from that, we're well off. Immigrant Song; Friends; That's the Way; Celebration Day; Since I've Been Loving You (best blues ever); Gallows Pole; Tangerine...ya can't go wrong with that.

And if it's LZ III, I like the fact that it's themed around a single album and not the entire catalogue.

Helps anchor the game in a particular year (1970) and zeitgeist and a particular flavor of the LZ catalogue. This would help give the pin focus.

Super exclusive ad from the Pinside Marketplace!

Quoted from Elvishasleft:

The songs are shown in the video... I think you only got one.
I think its kinda fugly myself artwise. Probably used the two alums with the worst cover art.

Post drained...didn't see the video!

#635 3 years ago

The pro is lookin' real good!!

#640 3 years ago

Layout looks very intriguing...can't wait to hear how it shoots!

#838 3 years ago

I really like the art on the Pro. Reminds me of the psychedelic album art of my youth. Extremely 70's.

Like someone else said, looks like the shots are ACDC meets AIQ. And, for me, it all comes down to the shots.

I have lots to play at home already, so I'm not in a rush...but I think I see a Pro in my future

Anybody heard of a JD stream coming? Apologies if I missed it.

#1451 3 years ago
Quoted from chuckwurt:

That’s my only beef with the Pro offering.

Yep....that's a huge blunder by Stern IMO.

Personally, this pushes me into Premium territory because I would need to justify that 3rd flipper.

I'll probably pick up an AIQ pro down the road, instead...even though I much prefer LZ to comic book stuff.

It's all about the shots and code for me. Neutering that 3rd flipper on the pro is a real head scratcher.

#1482 3 years ago

Listening to the Tim Sexton Pinball Profile with the majestic Jeff Teolis LOL ...hmmm...the ruleset sounds pretty cool...

https://www.pinballprofile.com/episode-293-timmy-page-sexton/?fbclid=IwAR3KPCDdPLyx55hI7RZ7xWQ08e9uB14b8FleKtKPCIQKzD4BcQVhsSXcl5Y

Let's wait to see how this baby shoots! ... (including - on the pro - that little rectal target from the 3rd flip). I'm doubting that 3rd flip can hit the ramp but who knows?

So I'm not subscribing to "premature evacuation" from this potentially most excellent pin!

Can hardly wait for the Friday stream!

Quoted from Tranquilize:

I'm not as binary in my assessment as ice is. I looked forward to playing SW, GOT and ordered DI immediately after seeing it. I disliked star wars after playing it and still dislike it. I was critical of the fan layout of GOT, but it turned out to be a really fun pro, better than the LE. I've also noted that I like bksor more than most. It's a really fun, intense game.
The difference here is that LZ looks far worse than any of those games. If I'm wrong, I'll gladly eat my words, but this game just doesn't look as fun in comparison to all modern Sterns, especially considering what Elwin has been pumping out lately. It will be worth playing, but I'm pretty sure it will go down as a disappointment to most.

Just a note: I have GOT LE. The pro was better in the past, but that's not so clear now. Not to make excuses for it, but the new code on the Prem/LE absolutely makes the upper PF more engaging. You actually *want* to keep the ball up there while you work on MB.
