So thats why i say or believe it is nice to get positive feedback once or more, but it serves no purpose to hear someone repeatedly bag your new game. It would become/may become inappropriate after a while I would think.

The way to put this into perspective, is to think about a machine you just bought and how you would feel if the same person/persons repeatedly bagged it over n over again. Once u hear the opinion, there no need to hear the not so nice one over and over again.

That way, people who do spend their hard earnt $$ on a new title, dont have to have their proud moment of unveiling on the forum bagged to death etc. It was something i felt would keep this place fun and show some politeness to other members. Thats all.  



Negative comments don't bother me. Everyone has an opinion, good or bad, agree or disagree with others. I own an Avatar, a game that probably 9 / 10 forum members would rate as very poor, but it doesn't sway my opinion or enjoyment of the game, regardless of what others say.

As for WOZ, the theme doesn't interest me at all. I don't like the LCD or the artwork and it's not a game i would ever consider, but good luck to all that have placed an order.

I really like what you bring to the table Cavey. Well said!
I have purchased a WOZ and don't have any issues saying it either. I think it will be a great game not just because of what I've seen from all the teasers we've been shown along the way, but it would be hard for some of the enthusiasm of someone like Jack with that much passion not to rub off onto his team.
It's a bit like saying 'how can it be done' instead of 'it can't be done'. Psychological barriers cause physical barriers..... I think this pin will be the start of a new era.

thanks, and i cant wait to see the unboxing videos. shld be a great day.

I would love to own a Avatar. I reckon it is a unique and great looking game. The audio rocks, the playfield art n 3D translite are exceelent as well. Avatar would look great in any collectors line up. Beautiful machine. Enjoy the game, thats what its all about. Great purchase i reckon.

Keep in mind this is a WOZ thread guys. If it continues to stray off topic we will have to "clean it up".  *%*

no probs Nino. understood.

That link i posted before, I noticed its not on the Pinballnews site but it is a Pinballnews link etc. I couldnt work that out.

Dont all the different colours on this WOZ machine look great. Clear insert decals might become the norm.

Hopefully soon so he can tell us what the next theme will be, it will want to be good as Stern are pumping out some nice themes and aren't they going LCD as well?

Some guy on pinside is spruking that the next stern pin will have a lcd and it will be the size of a sega dmd.
Good size imo, the woz one is far too big. Lets hope it's true, Avengers pin with a lcd that size in oct so this same dude reckons, we will see.

I'm with you the WOZ lcd is to big I like the idea of a smaller unit to.

Saying the LCD is too big is kinda like saying your dinner was too tasty, or your job pays too well, or your wife is too hot. It just doesn't compute!

That makes no sense to me at all.
