LCD in my RFM, and it has to be the best marriage of video and playfield action to date.

totally agree, RFM visuals are excellent..it works here cause the picture sits low in the cabinet so to speak with the way it reflects on the playfield glass etc...pin2000 worked extremely well for the technology they had to work with at the time..

std pinball needs to copy this to make large LCDs work better cause they sit too high otherwise....



Pin2000 didnt work well at all.. you cant see what you are meant to be shooting at. Nice idea.. crap execution.
What LCD does during gameplay is entirely up to the designers.. it can do anything they want it to do. DMD definition is bloody awful, even LED moving screens are becoming more like LCD with pixel definition at 5mm..4mm and even 3mm.. all  designed for close up viewing with better definition. LCD is CHEAP! Its in every phone and gives great graphics. DMD is dead cavey. Stern may not embrace it straight away, but then we come to expect that of Stern... hell it took a while for flippers at the bottom of the PF to become the norm.
Give it up Cavey, Gary doesnt love you as much

Gary doesnt have to love me, just my money when I keep buying the occassional new Pro.lol

Whats wrong with the latest LED red dot matrix displays with excellent graphics n contents etc... sometimes, if it aint broke, leave it...

The current makeup of pinball (say AC/DC and X Men works really well) so sometimes leaving things alone works...I am happy with the current technology cause it does its job really well.
