I've been out of the loop due to, uhh, other game announcements. But is ST actually confirmed (or "confirmed" in any kind of way past speculation), and is Brian Eddy gonna be on it? Really excited for this one. If there really is a webinar tomorrow it looks like I'm tuning back in at the right time.

Holy shit, okay. Now I'm pumped

I'm a big fan of Star Trek + Tron and no problems with Guardian's code (though I haven't played it too much). Any kind of glaring flaws across his games? I don't have any significant time on most of his stuff, looking at the list now.

Thanks for the breakdown. Maybe there's a reason I haven't spent much time on many of his other games.

Don't wanna get too presumptuous here but I think it's supposed to represent him jerking off, cause if that's all true this is shaping up to be a killer game.

idk if I trust anything from Kaneda but FWIW (hadn't seen this posted or mentioned, sorry if I missed it)

This is Pinside, there are no sources. Now Kaneda is copy/pasting this comment on his FB, where it will be read + repeated as further fact. It's turtles all the way down.

You've seen the game powered on + off?

At this point it appears aingide has seen the game in action, everything he posted yesterday was corroborated by TWIP's post today. If he says projected hallways on the center toy and lockers on the drops to correspond with game modes, it seems that's what it is. VERY interested in seeing this thing in action, what a couple of exciting weeks to be following pinball.

And Eddy's 3 for 3 on his designs (IMO). I'm a little nervous about the projector but can't wait to see this one.

Good point, hopefully we get more info soon. Having fun speculating in the meantime though.

The pro has 5 on the playfield and 4 on each side of the cab for a total of 13, making the van by far the most prominent enemy on the art. Pretty funny.

What's odd is it looks like the Pro has Hopper's Blazer on the right side of the head... if they had the rights to the K5 why wouldn't they replace one of the playfield-vans with it? Good looking game to me either way but I want more Blazer + Pinto, and less vans

There's no set screw? Surprised no one is discussing this, I'm shocked Stern sent a game out the door with a 6" post and nothing securing it in place.

Hahaha I just can't believe there's nothing to secure it at all, I'm not sure what the attachment point looks like but seems like the kind of thing a single tapped hole + set screw could've completely resolved. This will just get worse and worse over time, every time it gets worked loose it'll fit a bit less tight. Glad you pointed it out, this is going to be an immediate + recurring issue for operators I would think (until they figure out their own solution).

Thanks for the explanation + pic, hadn't seen one of these before. Looks easy enough to fix.

Couple screen grabs from the CNET livestream.

Poor choice on Stern's part to show it off here for the first time. Really excited to see one in person though.
