    I don't understand all the hate for the XF artwork.

    Everything within the game ties back in directly to episodes from the show. Is it that you think the
    artist that drew the character's on the playfield just wasn't very talented and the artwork suffered, or you just didn't like the content matter. There's nothing sexy about characters like the fluke man and Tooms, that I can agree with.

    At the very top of the playfield there's alot that's hidden and you can't see it when you're
    playing the game. For example the letters E B E, those can't be seen and in the upper right corner the game plastic with picture of The Well-Manicured Man just can't be seen when playing the game.

    I'd call the upper portion of the playfield that can't be seen bad design, not bad art.

    The translite art work is what stands out to me. Every item on it is recognizable and the quality
    is pretty good.

    Different strokes for different folks.
