It does look like a nice game even from the cabinet perspective. Some nice new bling stuff from stern. I like the cabinet flashers.
The Leds on this thing are stunning. The thing is, when you play, they are properly used to help guide you through the missions rather than blind you for show. ST is also stunning to look at in attract mode, especially side on. Definitely stands out in a crowd. The colours and artwork are well blended and nothing looks like an afterthought add-on. Sounds and call outs are also well integrated.
Peter, the first thing I noticed were the shiny balls, Stern must have got the message.
That warp shot looks awfully steep, I only managed 3 in a row and warp 7 in a whole game. You need to time it right with that top flipper. The lower left lock is a bugger to master and together with the left outlane kicker reminds me of Firepower. The lit kicker will miss a fast ball, just like on FP. Looking at the cabinet and mid playfield colours reminds me of Bally ST and there are subtle hints of Black Hole, Spider Man, Flash and Iron Man. Probably some other titles there also which I have not played.
Very happy with this purchase, a gamble sight unseen but I trust the flow master.
