Ripleys,

One of the best games ever with the worst art and sound package.

Ripleys,

i was watching the game play on this, i didn't know how deep the game play was on it, I don't think the art is bad, but yeah, the sound package isn't great.

It's one of the better Pat Lawlor games with tons going on but the theme etc makes it not that desirable.

Well worth checking out if you haven't played it much and can handle the obnoxious Jamaican call outs and other goofy ass BS.  :P

Oh? I'll double down on that and add that it is probably the weakest game (playwise) that people pay big money for.  :P

Thats in addition to the annoying repetitive callouts.

For more modern Sterns, I'd say X-men.  Made me sell the game.  Of course, the slow output of good, playable code didn't help. 
LOOK! Your shoe is untied!

speaking of the constant reminder of shot calls on iron man in early code, later code seems to cut it down a little.

X-Men also gets my vote. Storm specifically.

Now replace it with the X-Men 97 voice actors and you're talking top 10 pinball game :D

Led Zeppelin.. love the game but the callout voice is a British guy that sounds like he’s faking a British guy. It’s bad.

Stern JP voice acting was pretty terrible, with one exception
