Same price points as foo fighters? Or is there yet another increase

I love the use of the left sling shot into the venom hole.

Looks fun, but the Pro model looks way too gimped in comparison to the other models.

Yup, looks like Prem/LE is the way to go if so inclined.

Think of it as an opportunity to contemplate other things whilst the ball transverses the lower 2/3rds of the (mostly empty) playfield.
Perhaps it is not score you seek from this game, but enlightenment.

Can't unsee it now

The RPG like elements are pretty innovative, that's some neat way to spice things up using the Insider Connect and adds replayability in other ways than simply high score chasing.
The fast lock system is really cool, makes for intense fast play, those multiballs are nuts with how it's constantly feeding balls. It's not a theme or game that I would want to own, but definitely looks like fun to play.

the twitch feed was 100 times better than the stern reveal. except for jack...
this game is fast. super cluttered up high, and code vs scoring is flawed
right now (it's all multiball to get points), but seems to play brutally.

So stern is copying JJP with multiball all day game play(gnr godfather). Bold move cotton!
Will be interesting to play it. Fomo anyone?

Are they not all copying everyone already?

except for jack...
Jack D. is a dumbass
-
What did Jack D do now?
-
The ball bouncing around the empty bottom 2/3rds of the playfield didn't inspire confidence but we'll have to see how it plays in person.

Pro gameplay stream just went up: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1877321599

So if I understand, you can save your progress and levels in the game to the app on your phone and then go play a totally different Venom machine somewhere else and log in and pick up where you left off? Thats some new fangled stuff for pinball there.

Progress is linked to each players Insider Connected account QR code.
Selecting tournament mode would ignore progress so nobody has an advantage.
Stern TMNT [2020] works the same way.

You get XP and level up your character essentially, which is your account. Which help you get to higher level boss fights faster and also your level makes the fights harder or easier.

Ah and so begins "let's make pinball more like a shitty video game". :P
Did they start charging for software perks and upgrades yet or "downloadable super special content"

Empty layout, videogame code... how long before Stern starts putting a monitor pf ala p3?
That being said, if the next Elwin goes this way (with a shark navigating the playfield and interacting with the ball for example...) it may not be uninteresting

You mean what Stern has been doing already with topper exclusive modes?

This, I like, game saves.
Paying for extra BS will never fly with me if that comes about.

Played the premium several times at SFGE. Shoots ok a lot of bricks at first but that's probably me. The sounds are harsh like Deadpool and AIQ but its a comic book pin so go figure. Software is good start unlike Bond and somewhat interesting with the different characters and variables of play that come with them. I would say overall not a bad game nowhere near as good as Foo or GZ but not as bad as AIQ or TMNT. The pro looks like a home edition and if you like the theme go with premium. Wont be on my buy list but I don't really have any interest in the theme. It wont be a good tournament game once you learn the shots long ball times ensue.. That's my .02 can't wait for Jawz! Lol is anyone wanting 40 year old movie themes? I wish Gary Stern would stop choosing titles for Stern.

if anyone is having long ball times on this game, it was set up incorrectly.
this game is fast. i'm thinking IronMan fast. we should have one shortly, in the Pro format.
