Wow! Thanks so much for the kind words about our film! You guys really seemed to get what we were hoping would come across about Charlie and KT and their company's journey. So glad you enjoyed it! Here's a direct link to the film on Vimeo: vimeo.com/ondemand/spookypinballmovie
SDTM podcasts are my go to when I'm working around my computer and can't be watching the screen all the time. Of course then I have to run over and see the pix...and the outtakes. But other than that, great podcast material. Within a well edited video show.
First, keep making reviews of all games!! It's great content for newer people to the hobby and you both do a great job! Second, I've had Dialed In for two weeks, it's quickly becoming a top 5 game for me! so awesome!! Third, I'm disappointed with what I've seen of SW. I hope when I get to play it I'll do a complete 180!! I love Ritchie games but for how big of a theme it is, I think I over hyped it in my mind for what I thought it should have been.
Do you think the hyperlink loop might be a super cool gimmick on the SW Premium/ LE? Could it enhance gameplay? Another criticism it the empty playfield, but the two zillion mods will soon correct that, correct? I agree Dialed In is LOADED and flows like butter--but the audio is kind of uninspiring. Star Wars seems to provide more adrenalin-pumping action
Great video, as usual. Don't let Kaneda's hubris get you down. Question: Have you guys seen video of mere mortals play SW? Dead flip's video was awesome, but I think having those top level guys demonstrate the game made it confusing. Maybe I'm wrong, however check out Waspinator's videos and the game seems more manageable. Keep up the good work, and maybe get Zach a prozac.
The only "Extra" you get from SW Pro to Prem is a wire ramp and the egg cracks open in the back.. SW is a box of lights with a bobble head and a ball in the back. Gary Stern must be laughing at the suckers buying this pin all the way to the bank.
Generally agree, but--the hyperlink ramp may be super cool in action though, I suspect. And I presume Stern had to pay a hefty fee to Disney for the license (whereas, JJP had no such licensing fee to pay on DI). No dout SW Pro provides the most value--but if SW is your "Grail" theme, the Premium/LE may be justifiable
Totally agree about star wars. I played it for a few hours two months back. Even though I won some games on it, theme was poor, multipliers take away from flow, too much having to choose this and that.
Yeah it´s certainly 90 percent because of theme. I have so much nostalgia for 80´s and early 90´s toys. I even built Virtual Pinball just to play Masters of the Universe :D
You both don't know what you're talking about. The Hobbit is gold. We have yet to review the Hobbit but I can't wait for that one. Is the Simpsons fast? Which game has more to shoot at? Simpsons or Hobbit?....exactly Which one is more epic....yup (Only using Simpsons because I know it's a game you both like)
Also, if you guys want to come down to my place, you're welcome to come shoot around on Star Wars if you want. I know we aren't too far away from each other.
Ha ha it becomes kind of normal after a while! Honestly it teaches you to nudge and move a little better! I have more of a problem with the outlanes then the center (greg)
I'm just not a fan of games that want me to play the movie/show and not immerse myself in the universe of the movie. They just become tedious and boring. Movie games that excel are SM, WOZ, BSD, TSPP. SW seems like I am playing the movie.
No sir... Thank you for keeping this hobby alive, With your great reviews and honesty.

It's easy to talk highly of a film when it's great work and the content is great people!

Thanks Turbo. Jealous of your DI I want one. I'm not thrilled about SW either
Great show guys!
I think older pinball reviews are good. Get to see some tables that maybe you haven't seen for a long time. Love the show guys.
Heck yeah thanks!

Damn Tryton I thought I was harsh hahaha

I ordered Premium. I really would have hoped you could choose your side like in Transformers LE. I love that game just bought it week ago.
Man I really thought about trying to get a transformers but haven't played it much and always hear mixed things (Greg)

Enjoy the show guys. You actually already reviewed an EM game...it's called The Hobbit :) Happy to join anytime.
Kaneda Pinball ha ha ha that is amazing!!!! Zach loves that game. I like it but damn it's slow.Your right it does kind of feel like an EM (Greg)

Love your show, but have no idea how you guys both like GB with that awful flipper gap.
Ha ha it becomes kind of normal after a while! Honestly it teaches you to nudge and move a little better! I have more of a problem with the outlanes then the center (greg)
I get it. I swear my pro plays better than any out there I got lucky. Every scoop is dialed in and I am still enjoying it every time I play
For the loser of the GB contest:
Endure 10 seconds of shock from High Voltage section on Popeye.
I'm just not a fan of games that want me to play the movie/show and not immerse myself in the universe of the movie. They just become tedious and boring. Movie games that excel are SM, WOZ, BSD, TSPP. SW seems like I am playing the movie.
Stern IS multipliers. That's their thing. And has been for a while. And I also think it's boring as hell.
Looser has to get whatever style haircut the others says and wear it for one episode. Cut plus color.....get creative!
Damn that's really wicked. I don't know how to feel about Greg sporting some frosted tips
Jesus, Star War's playfield looks so so effing terrible.
Man and that's not even the deal breaker for me.
All I have to say about Star Wars is, underwhelming AF. Stern is failing hard at this one.
I'm hoping for a good Guardians of the Galaxy rebound
How can Stern make games like Star Wars, MET, and Walking Dead and then go to THIS?
