[QUOTE="Kolchak357, post: 254053, member: 568"] I know this has become mostly a bug thread as it's hard to ignore them. But I did want to add my early impression of the newest Stern pins excluding the bugs. AC/DC - I love this pin in real life. If I could own any modern pin, it would probably be this one. The SPA version is also a A+ for me. Looks and sounds very good for a mobile version. Also manages to do a good job of capturing the play feel of the real thing. Star Trek - My real life experience with this pin was luke warm. My only experiences were with the release game code. Played it several times and thought, it's just ok. Didn't really have the urge to keep playing it. Now the SPA version is a different story. With the complete code it is a totally different experience for me. I just keep starting another game. The layout was never the problem, but the game seems more alive to me now. The missions are fun, the dots are good. This pin also benefits from good sound and fantastic lighting. Easily the best insert lighting of any mobile pin (imo). Mustang - For me it's kind of the ugly sister of AC/DC and Star Trek. Not really fair to say that, but it is just a step below those two. Fun layout, good rules, and a wide flipper gap to make it challenging. If I got this pin in TPA, I'd be thrilled with it. Being released with AC/DC and Star Trek does it a disservice. I hope people give it a fair shake. I won't go into detail on the other SPA release pins. For me they just don't add anything from the TPA versions we already have. They look and play pretty much exactly what we already have. Well that's my gut reactions to the iOS version. Curious to hear what other think about the look and play. Edit Note: Sorry I stuck this in the Android thread by accident. Maybe a mod can move it. Or folks can just give me their Android impression. I'm sure all the mobiles look and play about the same.
