- P3 game will include a new playfield module alongside new items
- People are speculating P3 game is Hudson Hawk, Beetlejuice, or Gundam based on teaser images
Notable quotes
“100% honesty. Rush is a better music pen than Zeppelin. Okay. I would agree. Even though I prefer Zeppelin's music. Well, yeah, me too. But it's a better pen than Zeppelin.”
“The rules are still way too nebulous for me... it almost is like you need to watch a video primer to know what you're going to do”
“Every single time a game is announced somebody's in the lead up somebody's always saying it's the dream theme and it's going to blow your socks off... I mean, it's just the normal kind of thing that you hear on every game. None of it actually means anything.”
“I don't like to do anything that doesn't let me say exactly what I actually feel about an item... I've known other past podcasters in pinball who took NDAs and regretted them.”
“$10,000 is one of those things where there's a lot of hobbies out there where $10,000 isn't, oh, I got my foot in the door in the hobby. $10,000 is I'm one of the big ballers in the hobby.”
“The number one rule in pinball, don't pre-order pinball.”
“When people only talk perfect, it scares me a little bit.”
