Your link didn't work, try this

Good informative video, looks like a great game, ashame we didn't watch a full game to get a sense of the sound package. Also noticed wolverine rotating to the left - wonder if he rotates back to the right at various stages.

Need a full game video with audio, the code is probably nowhere near done but it otherwise looks pretty good.
Magneto call outs sound like Ron Burgandy.

I love the theme but my gut tells me something is not quite right with this pin, I will wait and see how it plays.

There is a rumor that a x-men pro will be at this years comic-con.
Hopefully there will be some proper gameplay video up soon.

Well done again Swinksy for your top efforts.  Both videos are great.  The machine looks very good indeed.

Its making me think that STERN should make the PRO version with the LEDs.  I could live with a PRO if it had LEDS that changed colour etc like the LE version, but i am assuming that even if u put LEDS into a PRO yourself, without the control software added like the LE, its not going to give the same lighting. 
* If only STERN started incorporating some of these newer technologies into the PRO versions as well, they would sell alot more machines. 
Time will tell with the PRO version of X-Men ?

I caught this on pinside as well, thanks for posting here.
The LE looks great with the colour changing leds. The spinning magnet disc and ice ramp look very sweet as well. Look like this will be very fast and unpredictable to play!
Would like to see some more with the nightcrawlers, wolverine and some more modes but all in all it's a beauty.
The call outs and audio suit better now when intergrated compared to the stern teaser.
The code looks very incomplete though, some voice calls doubling up etc but that is always the way with Stern so updates should be cool to see the progression becuase there is heaps of potential there. Lets hope they finnsih the code properly like sm, tron and im and don't leave it hanging in the breeze like they are prone to do on most titles.
There is a short..very short video of the pro on pinside as well from comic con but I think the LE is the one to grab here, it has too many extra features that effect gameplay to ignore.

Looks for mine to be the same as ACDC,in my opinion a good game but not a great game.I could have purchased either of those titles,but i cannot see the value for money in any of them.I got sick of waiting for Stern to release something with a WOW factor and decided to spend my money on other titles.I am very happy with the huo POTC i picked up recently for half the money Stern want for the last 2 releases.I was down for an X-Men LE until i seen the pics,then i told AMD to put me down for the pro,but after thinking it over i decided to give both a miss.I hope everyone who buys this title enjoys it,but for me a NIB is still to happen.

This game also supposed to pack 1000 call outs as it has the same memory size as the AC/DC.

The lighting and action look good, looking forward to a game of a LE but also the pro as keen for one of those.
