    Quoted from zaki:

    Would there be protests if it's based on the Roger moore movies?

    Isnt that him on the 1980 Game?

    I sincerely hope it's Bond. I really like some of Sterns Marvel pins, but there are already so many.

    #53 1 year ago
    Quoted from PinballZach:

    I’d prefer Venom over Bond, but I still think venom is just codename for Cobra Kai. The show starts up again next week. If it was Venom you would think they would have revealed it a ComicCon last month. I guess we will just have to wait and see…

    History has shown that things like "show starts up again" (or movie release dates, etc) have zero impact on Stern release schedules. There are too many variables for them to be able to time things out like that.

    Here's the slot machine I was talking about.

    Looks like they have several different eras licensed. Kind of blows away the "no way you'll get a license" theory.

    Starting to get the feeling the next Stern machine will be Bond, but I would rather see Venom.
    Still happy to see any new Stern.

    BOND. PLEASE!!!!!!!!

    #58 1 year ago

    My distributor told me last week it will be venom.

    #59 1 year ago

    Venom is an awful theme. But I do like the idea of a supervillain table... a dedicated Joker table would be amazing.

    #60 1 year ago
    Quoted from MaxIsDead:

    Seems unlikely they’d get the Connery assets. My guess is modern theme with Daniel Craig. Or perhaps a more generic no actor specific bond?

    Right, but dog humping on slot licenses is what Kapow does (from my understanding) Maybe Stern is cutting out the middle man.

    #63 1 year ago

    James Bond all day for me.
    Personally. Give me Sean Connery with all the villains. It would be spectacular.

    I'm currently working my way through the Bond movies in chronological order. Just finished From Russia With Love last night. Fun movies. I still want Venom

    Same here providing layouts are fun and not just cookie cutter, I’d be interested in Venom for all the family and Bond for myself

    Which recycler is up on this? Gomez?

    #70 1 year ago
    Quoted from TheLaw:

    Which recycler is up on this? Gomez?

    Eddy is supposedly on Venom
    Gomez scrapped Ritchie layout to start over which is rumoured to be Bond.

    The recycling King shouldn’t be up for at least 4-5 more games.

    Mando is def a new layout so there is that.
    I don't know what Gomez can do, recent layouts are basically reskins.

    I want both, but really hoping Venom is like Deadpool 2.0 with great art and fun code. As much as I like rush, I almost find the shots to not be as satisfying compared to when I play my Deadpool. Hoping for something maybe a little on the simple side with classic style fun either way.

    Sounds like you should add some older Williams games to your collection!

    #76 1 year ago

    I've had a few, they're really not for me. I enjoy TAF, but TZ and IJ didnt resonate with me. I am enjoying CC but the remake. The first pins I ever played were modern Sterns so that shaped a bit of my preference. I am trying to mix up the lineup a little though.

    Copied this from the slot machine page posted earlier. Could not help but see the reference to "venomous assassins"!

    Live And Let Die, the 1973 James Bond film that is well-known for a its New Orleans backdrop, and venomous assassins, is now showcased on the remarkable Gamefield 2.0™ Premium Cabinet.

    If its James Bond Live and Let Die....Jerry @ Player One will be getting an email.

    #83 1 year ago

    I'm definitely in the Bond camp, a top theme for me, nearly as much as JAWS. DPLE was my one comicbook theme game, don't really need another one like Venom.

    Quoted from TheLaw:

    Deadpool is Gomez and a great layout, helped by very accessible and fun code.

    Venom should be a no brainer, a lot of Deadpool was cut due to the restricted development time. So given a second shot at a similar style game, give it all the stuff Deadpool had cut.

    Plenty of enemies you can choose to battle, take your pick of symbiotes - Scream, Lasher, Phage, Agony, Riot, Mania, Sleeper and of course Carnage!

    Throw in Spider-Man as an ally or wizard mode. Demogoblin is another great character and would look amazing drawn by Yeti. Add Morbius in as a cameo and he could power up into Rune, not comic accurate but Rune was a vampire Hunter that merged with a symbiote but Morbius would be a nice Easter egg.

    Lots of potential for a kick ass venom game whether your a comic book fan or not, Deadpool 2.0 would be fun time for most.

    Watched Goldfinger last night and really enjoyed it. I can see why its held in such high regard with Bond fans. I assume thats the Aston that Joe Kaminkow is making a replica of? Thats gonna be so cool!

    Quoted from J85M:

    Deadpool is Gomez and a great layout...

    Sure. Its also basically an avengers retread is what we're talking aboot.

    The worry with Venom is it slipping further into a 2d fighting theme, which we already just had 2 of. Hopefully they pull away from that.

    #88 1 year ago

    The poll asks which game we think Stern will make next, but (based on most of the comments) it seems to be asking us which one we’d prefer. I voted Venom based on the way the question was written, but I’d much prefer Bond…especially if it has multiple actor portrayals of the character.

    #89 1 year ago
    Quoted from Charlemagne1987:

    The poll asks which game...

    Yeah titles and polls don't mean much. No matter what they devolve into favorites and then a bunch of games not listed.

    The actual question though is even more pointless.

    You know what dude I hadn’t even connected the two, likely due to my complete lack of time on the original avengers after battling with a friends complete clunkfest out of the box.

    But yeah there are a few similarities now you’ve pointed it out, but as long as it’s fun I could live with another fighting style game and the 2D animations in Deadpool look way better than the 3D stuff from Stern in say TMNT.

    Speaking of colt and paste layouts I played Rush this past weekend with an Xmen as well to compare and that thing is practically a carbon copy but boy does Rush suck the fun out the room, that thing is just not fun to shoot.

    #91 1 year ago

    Rush is.....not what I would call fun to shoot either. Its decent but the upper flipper for me is sloppy as shit. Seems more like Frankenstein than XMen
    Fun is the most important thing; I just don't want them to fall into a rubber stamped kind of situation. I just don't want them to say "ok we got a comic theme; 2d fighting with health bar."
    I dont like lazy

    #93 1 year ago

    If it's all the Bonds, I am in. If it's just Connery (especially just one older movie) I am out.

    I will 100% get Venom if Brian Eddy is the designer.
