Love the new code. Just finished Assault on the helicarrier for the first time.

Way better animations, and better options in the menus to make some of the objectives more fun/achievable

Great feedback.
A great game even better.
The artwork on this machine is sensational !

I put my Avengers Blue machine into storage a year ago due to lack of code updates. Can't be bothered getting it back out just for this when there are far better and more complete games in my collection to play.


Hulk's mates are very apropos though - a bunch of old dinosaurs whose career peak was aeons ago and are simply sticking around to milk an old cow past its prime.

Just needs a photo of ACDC on there as well.

Worth grabbing out and updating in my opinion. The vs modes seem to have better lighting now, black widow ramp spinner scores as a hit and everything just seems more logical.

To me the game has become more immersive. A bit like Lotr in that you feel as though you are part of the storyline.

A few more good call outs too, reminds me a little of monster bash or roadshow with a little bit of comedy!

A good player got better.
Definitely a keeper.

The black widow spinner made it for me and the "H" fix from the kickout 

Being able to change the Vs difficulty does help in collecting the avengers.
Now all I have to do is get a colour DMD for it.

Avengers is close to my favourite game in my collection . It cops a fair bagging for being a dull player , but the fact is that you have to be a good player to make the tight shots often enough to get it wound up . I really like the theme and as Cavey mentioned above the artwork is simply spectacular .

I'm not sure why anyone would put this game into storage and use lack of code updates as an excuse  Apart from a few minor bugs the game shipped very complete and very playable as it was .

Haven't got to Battle For Earth ( yet ) to see the new animations but so looking forward to it when the day comes .

[pinsanity]

Playable yes, polished to the point of being a pleasure rather than an unsatisfying chore to play no.

Two plus years without a code update.
Shots (targets) that did nothing as of the prior update.
Plus 64 other machines in my collection that are far better players, are more complete code wise and are ultimately more rewarding.

Reward mediocrity and you will simply get more of the same.

Well said. Sounds spot on.
The Battle for Earth animations will be good to see.
I am hoping the new code enhancements make their way onto YouTube and FBook videos soon.
You rarely see an Avengers for sale in Aust. Everyone seems to holding on to theirs.
They are popular on site.
A friend put one at the Airport and he got great coin thru it from day one.
That's why the art on the Pro and LE versions work so well for all ages.
Machine screams out come and play me from a distance.
