sorry to be a party pooper but I'm hearing a lot about the coding not ready on all these new games. Why? In the good old days of games in arcades, were they this unfinished? I wouldn't think so but could be wrong. I thought games that weren't quite finished in those days were those that were field tested? I played WOZ at bumper that apparently had about 30% of the final coding and I thought why bother. Any way if someone could put me in my place and tell me this is standard practice, please do.

Yep, Stern has been sending out games with unfinished code for years now
with Batman TDK, they were still updating two years on, we were lucky
WoF had no updates and feels unfinished

in the old days, updating the software meant burning a new ROM, now it is a simple matter of downloading the software, transferring it to a USB stick and putting the USB stick in your game and waiting a few minutes
