This games going to make a ton on location. Being able to save your progress is a game changer. I know I’ll be wearing this one out at my local spot.

Got to watch a little of the stream, looks intriguing. Like how they are adding in aspects of the video game world. I am liking the idea of the saved progression aspect (even though it's only through Insider connect). The complexity of these games anymore are not designed for us average players. Thanks for the video Cary, keep up the great work.

The physical multiball locks are cool! The custom animations are very good and the software completely eliminated my concerns about the game. It’s a fast excellent game. Still to see the Pro but the Premium is the way to go.

Can't wait to play it and experience the speed for myself..looks like a game that fights you back which is always fun.. and frustrating at times which always brings me back!

Game looks pretty cool. While I am not a fan of the 3 tier system for the games, I do applaud Stern for announcing a game and having it out a month later. Hope it does well for them.

He only time the ball went into the pops area was if the player choose the top lane skill shot. Would be nice if that area was used more especially during multiball.

I wasn't really impressed with the everything boxed at one end "shooting gallery". My preference is a pinball layout with lots of curves and creative use of the space. This feels too rectangular for me. If it works for you, enjoy!

I just spent 4 hours this morning playing Venom here is San Diego at Comic Con. I played the pro 1st for about 40 minutes it was fun it was fast. I began to understand the carnage multiball and the mayhem multiball. The playfield is way less confusing in person.i thought the playfied was going to be short, but it is a spacious playfield. Price point is high obvious. I i think the Pro is ok, but it feels like if your already going to the $7,000 price point, you might as well go the remaining $3,000 To gather the full experience. I met many people from near by Arizona, and from other cities in CA that were 3+ hours away to play on freeway. I may have to skip due to price point, BUT...I don't know know. If I do it will be premium 100%

I love the comments all over pinside about it shoots fast yet nobody knows how steep is was setup. I think Stern did it on purpose so people wouldn't say it's slow and floaty.

@CaryHardy Жыл бұрын

They could have set it higher, but that isn't the reason it's fast. The reason it's fast is because the ball shoots from the fast lock system. You have quick ball return - even when hitting a scoop.

@pinballer638 Жыл бұрын

Pinball people are weird. When a game is a piece of shit they defend it with "flow" and now it's "fast". You want flow and fast then have a playfield full of orbits and horseshoes. I'm sure if Stern did that, hard ons like Cary would be saying OMG so MUCH flow, so MUCH fast. No mechs=awesome because no break down. Fast forward 5 years from now Stern is just going to release a completly empty playfield with no flippers just a plunger and sell it for $35k and Carey is going to say GENIUS, so difficult with no flippers, it's all about that plunger, buy buy buy.

YOU SAID CHAMPING!!!!!! YEAAAAAAAAAA 🎊 🎉

@ackerapple608 Жыл бұрын

The quick answer to whether champ or chomp is correct is that both are acceptable for modern use - meaning you can use either! To champ or chomp at the bit is to be restless or unable to show restraint.

@@moobutt ok you asked for it... The original, and proper use of the term is champing at the bit, and it also is surprisingly more widely used even though chomping at the bit may seem more familiar to the majority of our readers. Regardless, both are acceptable to use even if one is technically more correct. CHATGPT: Do you think there is a correctness to saying "chomp at the bit" versus "champ at the bit" and do you think its worth pointing out when some uses one or the other? The correct phrase is "chomp at the bit," not "champ at the bit." However, it is not uncommon for people to mistakenly use "champ" instead of "chomp." The correct version of the idiom comes from the behavior of horses that, when impatient or eager to go, may bite or gnash on the bit in their mouths. While it's essential to use the correct version of idioms and phrases in formal writing and communication, it might not be necessary to point out the mistake every time you encounter someone using "champ at the bit." Language is constantly evolving...

not a fan of the Venom theme, BUT i only see this appealing to the hardcore tournament players. this is NOT a game for casual / arcade players. this machine reminds me of Led Zepplin with everything up on the top 3rd of the playfield, i don't see any shots on the lower half of the playfield. Godzilla is awesome for a thousand more reasons than this machine has, godzilla had shots all over the playfield up and down that and the Godzilla theme is why it has massive appeal. This machine will NOT do well, it will do as well as led zepplin and they are giving those machines away.

@CaryHardy Жыл бұрын

This will do so much better than LZ. Stern blew their wad on paying the band and cutting costs on BOM. They mailed in the art for LZ vs. having Yeti. The theme of Venom speaks to a broader audience than LZ too. So, I will disagree.

@@CaryHardy maybe but with the gameplay that i saw on the sdcc gameplay, the non- hardcore fans will leave this alone, just like LZ and TMNT!
