    Quoted from cpsystem3:

    Am I the only one that cringes when I see all these god-awful mods people are putting into their machines lately? LED's on 80's and 90's games, STREET GLOW under the friggen cabinet, gaudy colored powder coating, LED Speaker Grilles... the list goes on. When I see a "decked out" machine I throw up a little. You're hard pressed to find a shopped game WITHOUT led's and other crap these days. Do people really consider them appealing and or adding value to the title? Maybe I'm oldschool, but I'd take a factory-spec restoration over some custom abomination any day of the week

    Hey you kids?? Get off my lawn!!

    It's pinball progression.

    Quoted from system11:

    Progression? No, just bad lighting and cheap cracker toys unless we're talking proper mods like restoring proto functionality, or filling bits in that the factory missed (example - Tron decal for the raising target bank).

    Progression...Yes. Look at Stern LE's or the new WOZ. LED displays and more and more playfield toys. It's okay if you don't agree with progression...i'm sure you communicate with your friends using the telegraph
