The negative stuff written about games that no one has played is always amusing for me. It is like Stern or other manufacturers have to design pinball exactly to the specs of a critic to make them happy.
I know from my experience with KISS that armchair critics dismissed the game as they don't like the theme. It needs code, but it is an awesome game. When Swinks shared the first GB photos on AP, I was awestruck by the art, and the layout looked amazing. The critics then took out the electron microscope looking for things that were "wrong" according to them and then they run off with their negative agenda. This kind of attitude was last seen in primary school.
I would have bought GB as I love the movies and the pinball has hand drawn art and is designed by my favorite designer. I didn't pull the trigger due to Stern releasing unfinished games. But I know those that did buy the game will be happy if they have patience with the code.
I do think Stern should revert back to the old days of releasing the title the day they release the game, with good code. This pre release media just stirs the critics, and they can never shut up !
