gambit3113 said:Akuma has reported not hand drawn, but done on Photoshop. Digital rendering, I suppose.
Did he mean they were utilizing photos/scans and arranging in Photoshop or drawing the art in Photoshop?
Side track again for a sec: Artists can "hand" draw and paint in Photoshop. They have been for YEARS. You just need a good Cintiq/Tablet. I'm just mentioning this for people that associate "Photoshop" with "the computer did the work for you, you didn't really draw anything". Sorry if that comes off condescending. Just saying...

mnpinball said:This one Will sell out almost immediately. Dist are going to buy them all. Most of the guys in the know have pre ordered based on info.
I agree, this game is going to sell like hot cakes! From everything I have heard about it, it's going to be a fast combo beast! exactly the way I like um like TRON! Very happy for Borg and his team and wish them all the luck on this game I for one am in! pre-order locked in!

Quoted from mnpinball:

Just got message from Stern the LE run is sold out.

Quoted from copperpot:

Yeah I'm disappointed by that too, that IJ4 Scoop is definitely missing from the teaser CAD.

Quoted from jackal2001:

For all the guys saying "I can't believe you guys are talking about buying/swaping trim, toys, etc.". This has been going on forever. Jesus, just look at Tron. People are paying $5000+ for a NIB Pro now. They are buying Orange Trim, version 2.1 Arcade toy, EL wire, other toys and such. Hell, my TRON LE was cheaper than what they are getting a Pro for now.
Stern is done with chrome because it is expensive and they had problems with it. So no people can decide what color trim they want because most likely every LE from TFs on will have powder coating on it.
It all comes down with what you want to do with "your" game and how you want to personalize it. Mod ON!

Quoted from rai:

Just looking at the two, it looks like WoZ is far and away better built with greater attention to detail, I mean you don't see any light wires or plastic fastener on WoZ, and XM looks made from 'parts bin' ...The XM figurines while not a deal killer are not to my taste.

Quoted from TigerLaw:

Holy cow Gambit . . . you just picked up and unboxed the machine today and you already decoded the rule set in this kind of detail? You have sick skills . . . it takes me several days of pretty good play to figure out the rules of machines in this great of detail.

Quoted from DugFreez:

Overall, not good. They range from good to laughable to horrible. Probably the one that stands out as the worst is "Collect X-Men to battle Magneto" by some unknown narrator that decided to drop 1 line in the game. It sounds like it was recorded on a boom box from 1984.
Storms voice is just all around bad. I really haven't noticed Wolverines voices not matching up as poorly as I first did (or him sounding like Cyclops). Magneto is laughable bad, but in a super cheese way that doesn't bother me. It sounds like Will Ferrell doing an over the top voice in most of it but one clip in particular makes me think of someone eles. "Avenger...X-Men...(and in the Ted Knight, Judge Smails voice from Caddyshack) and soon...the world."
All in all, not what was hyped by the "insiders" that continue to be wrong on almost all of the "knowledge" they decide to grace us with. Those critiques aren't taking in to consideration how much speach is lacking or repeated. That is just my opinion on what is there.
