POTC has so_ many toys besides the spinning disks. Maybe list them all out and see how big of a deal this really is? Seems like it’s still ridiculously packed with toys? Maelstrom, rocking ship, working canon, spinning Tom Tortuga, Star field, diverters everywhere. Is it still more toys than almost any other game?

Also kinda amusing that guys are flipping orders to Iron Maiden that appears to have no toys on the pro? Is that center ramp even a toy?

Quoted from PanzerFreak:

Anyone change their mind back to staying in after seeing today's live stream with the new spinning disk?

I waited for the stream before making my decision.

After watching I sent the email and pulled the plug from my POTCLE order. Mainly I didn't like how the new setup looked with the single disc in action. Really the old setup looked a LOT better, and had a higher end look to it. They did an amazing job with the original 3 disc design. Embedded LEDs, coupled with a matching animation. The single disc with no LEDs had no appeal to me, and detracted from the overall experience of the game. Like others, the theme was so-so to me, but the code, video execution, and machine design hooked me.

Bottom line is I couldn't fall in love with the game today, so I'm officially out. Which is sad. So now I have no idea what pin 3 will be for me. I have a DILE and TNA. Maybe wait until later in the year, or look at some older titles. Nothing really calling my name.

Quoted from zaphX:

I voted in the poll I was still in, but after watching the stream I’m really thinking hard.
The loss of the disc really takes away a lot of the excitement.

Zaphx, looks like you live down the street. . If you still get one maybe I can stop by and try it. . Liking swpro?

My guess is they have a window for POTC to hit the production line before it’s needed to ramp Toy story. So they are dealing with a real deadline problem. And not many games shipping to generate revenue.

Anyway, I’m (likely) out for now and will just get on the Lawlor Toy story bandwagon in the fall. My deposit is sill holding my LE until they ask for payment. I’ll hold out hope until the fat lady sings.
