[QUOTE="PET3R, post: 228059, member: 5266"] some very good points. a) Monopoly - this is changing now as there are other companies that starting to compete with Stern. I am very happy for this as it is only going to make pinball better. b) Artwork - I understand some might prefer hand drawn artwork but we live in a digital world and to be honest I think the photoshoped cabinets and especially playfields make more sense. I much prefer some of the Stern's clean and elegant playfields compared to drawn ones like MB. For example MM playfield looks too busy to me, that is why I always preferred more simple one like AFM. I don't need drawings of the monsters on the playfield. I want the important information to be very visible and easy to see, without any distraction. Therefore playfields that I really like are mostly the clean ones from Stern: Star Trek, Game of Thrones, Spiderman, Tron, Batman, Iron Man, Pirates of the Carribean. Just compare MM and Stern's Star Trek or Game of Thrones to see what I am talking about. c) complex rules sets - briliant observation! You are right about complex rule sets not being very accessible but I think Stern app is going change this. I feel pinball is becoming much more than just popping in to your local place to kill a few minutes and have fun. I can see the rulesets becoming ever more complex and allow more strategies and possibilities. I am sure that what we see is just a beginning to a much deeper pinball. [/QUOTE]
