By the way, the translite for the final machine is exactly the same as the preliminary pics. Does anyone else think it looks like something a 13-year-old whipped up over fifteen minutes in Photoshop? Ew.

I looked up some pics of the girl host, and she definitely looks better than she does on this translite.

I keep looking at it and thinking that it looks a lot more like the games Stern first came out with like Striker    treme and Austin Powers and a lot less like LOTR and TSSP It is just one ugly looking game Vince Van Patten on the translite Why? Gary/Arizona

She does have some character to her eyes in real life but the artist simply made them look like bags under her eyes... Here's an instance where an actual photograph used for the art would have been superior. I love my LOTR and TSPP but I gotta admit Stern still manages to make their machines look a little cheap somehow... I wonder if it would look better with stainless rails and lockbar, chrome legs and no plastic bathroom trim around the backbox? Or maybe that's just my Wms predjudice showing? Maybe it's still the funny texture and low-res art on the cab?

Here's a comparison shot of the backglass and the real element, by the way: http://img13.imageshack.us/img13/4958/compare6ic.jpg

Otherwise, I think the game looks like winner. I'll bet the gameplay will be amazing. Dave http://usergallery.myhomegameroom.com/gallery/dmp65
