Stern Announces - Game Of Thrones

[Toads]

I'm hearing Ritchie is the man.
So should it be called game of flow and not thrones.

Fingers crossed Lyman does the code he really is the master of rules :)

Dwight Sullivan is supposed to be coding this one. He's got an impressive list of games.

Pirates of the Caribbean, Star Trek TNG, Revenge From Mars, Terminator 2, Who Dunnit, Road Show, Junk Yard, Champion Pub...cherry picking games in his list of credits.

Steve R has been on FB telling some good jokes and hyping up Game of Thrones. He is a funny guy and he is full of passion.

I asked him is he going to try and get his No 1 spot back from Borgy etc and he said of course, GOT will be a smash hit !

Stern is on fire !
I don't care for the LCD. I really like the bright red Dots. They work well. I watch the game during play and barely watch the screen. The colour DMD screens are good for people watching a game and spectators but I would be happy forever with the bright red dots.
JJP has done the LCD TV screen, yes it looks magnificent, BUT at the cost of less on the playfield on the Hobbitt model.
Woz playfield was great, Hobbitt playfield was dumbed down by a good 30 percent.

LCD screens are only good if it doesn't take hardware away from the playfield.

Red dots on Sterns seem easy to read at fast glances.
So it's not such a change that really matters from a gameplay point of view.
It does look good but it's not needed for Stern to get my money $.

Game of Thrones Pro = yes please x 1 for the Stern room.

Sounds like it could be a good title. It's not a theme I'm into but if the game plays well then who cares. Can't wait to see it. I was thinking Star Wars would have been a good title to release at the end of the year.

Heaps of pics on sterns FB page and on AA

The Premium/LE playfield looks like there is a lot of stuff to do and quite interesting. The Pro model looks like a desert in comparison, bloody hell?

The artwork on the cab, translite and to a lesser extent the playfield doesn't enthuse me at all. It's a pretty dark series but that's not reflected in the artwork. It doesn't look like much effort went into the cabinet or translite artwork at all, looks kinda "budget".

Hopefully the game play of the Premium/LE is good, it looks like it could be promising from the inital pics, will be interested to see some gameplay vids.

I was told someone has release early renderings only and that they are not the final versions of the real thing.

They don't look finished to me and the headbox art, translie and cabinet art don't look toed together.
Something g sint right here.

Even the playfield colours with bright green ugly bright green look totally out of place.

Waiting to see the real Stern press releases instead of these tease release shots by pinball enthusiasts.

If SR in charge. I would be expecting A lot more from Gane of Thrones.

Anyone else bit deflated so far ?

I have stopped judging games from the first pictures
The games all seem better in person

But I do like what I see

Might have to save up, see if our dollar improves, and get one next year

[pinsanity]

No word on local pricing yet, but Stern MSRP in the US is as follows:
Pro Model $5,995
Premium Model $7,595
Khaleesi Limited Edition $8,795

As previously mentioned this is advertised pricing in the US and astute buyers will always find a better deal privately.  

International orders to start shipping around the middle of this month.


Much like ACDC, removing an entire mini playfield between Pro and Premium/LE models will simply ensure that Pro model post purchase values will drop like a lead balloon.

[GORGAR 1]

Looks good so far :) premium seems the way to go.  A guy(Luke) from AA said he spoke to Bruce @ AMD and he said NO price increase :) hopefully that's right.

[Cow Corner]

Pf layouts look good, cab and pf art are atrocious.
Another half baked effort from Stern by the looks of it.
DMD or LCD?
