Quoted from PersonX99:I'm still trying to figure out why this game is so popular??
For me, the lighted ramps are pretty cool and that's about it.
I much prefer playing IM and Metallica.

Quoted from LesManley:That's the point. If the Tron playfield layout or the rules were that good, the theme would be transferable and it's not. Tron is a good game, but it's the theme that drives Tron and elevates it's status...people "like to look at Tron". For many people in my generation that like games and liked them as a kid, it is the perfect representative theme.
Mustang has the reverse issue that Tron does. Mustang has a more creative playfield layout and better ruleset, but because of the theme the game got largely ignored. Mustang is actually a pretty good game, but very few people like "to look at" the Mustang theme, so very few people give it a chance.
Agreed.
Tron looks nicer, but Mustang is more fun.
Quoted from Tuna_Delight:What is worthless is the seemingly matter of fact condemnation that Mustang suffers from. While some will always love or hate any game, for varying reasons, Mustang especially seems to have been given a bum rap on Pinside by many who haven't really played it and are just repeating a judgement that is accepted as true.
Idiots.
It is one of Stern's better games.
