Of course I have no way of KNOWING this but I feel sorry for the people who are skipping out because of the theme because I think they are making a bad mistake.

I am also NOT a fan of the theme. (but I bought one!) I would prefer something much darker, in truth I would like something completely the opposite of the wholesome, family oriented, dare I say just a little too happy theme that WOZ is. Something along the lines of "The Night Stalker" w/Darrin McGavin maybe? Or if we go musically, Queensryche or Dream Theater??

Additionally, I am also not a fan of the movie "The Shadow". I agree with the majority that the back glass picture is less than thrilling. But the sounds and gameplay??? Oh my! What a fantastic game.

The point? Well, my perception of innovation and creativity coming with WOZ has me looking WAY past the theme. I wholeheartedly believe it will be the most fun I have had playing a new game since AFM and SS came out. I am not afraid to admit when I am wrong and within a few months time I may be doing just that. I am not counting on it though!

As far as the theme haters. I am not trying to change your minds, frankly I don't care to. I respect that everyone is entitled to their opinions. I even respect those opinions when I disagree with them.

I just hope that when the game comes out, and it turns out to be a hit (maybe, maybe not?) that the theme haters don't miss out on playing one of the greatest games ever.

And, as the counterpoint to myself, I am currently having the same problem with AC/DC. I keep hearing that it is a great game, but I will never own one because of the prominent devil horns in the center of the game. Don't like that theme at all. What a shame because it sounds like a great machine. So.....I do understand not wanting a machine because of theme. What I don't understand is the vehement bashing of it, though...

Good bye pinsiders. Have a nice weekend.

I 100% agree with you, Rob. I didn't really word my real concern very well which is that someone would never give the game a chance at all based on theme. THAT is the mistake I would worry about. Maybe I am projecting my own values to other peoples, meaning that if I really hated a theme, I would not even play the game with an open mind.

Off to a wedding reception so everyone that is trying to reach me, I will have to get back to you later.

Of course, I am kidding. No one is trying to reach me. I just like to pretend that I am important.

No not new, unless the "again" part was your way of acknowledging his previous screen name.

I have only been around for about a year but it amuses me when people, and off the top of my head I can think of at least 3, excessively antagonize members here, get called out on it, run away with their tails between their legs, come back under a different name, and expect no one to know who they are.

As sand through the hourglass....
