World Cup Soccer vs Bram Stoker's Dracula

Welcome back to Modern Man in Search of High Scores, and this week our goal is blood! World Cup Soccer is up against Bram Stoker's Dracula in a showdown that's sure to break some hearts. Lawrence Adams and Dean Robley kick things off with the week's arcade and pinball news: Iconic Arcade's Double Dragon cabinet mockup, the now-confirmed Sonic the Hedgehog by Jersey Jack (with Steve Ritchie at the helm), Pedretti officially announces Tales of the Arabian Nights remaster, and word that Stern's John Wick code update is finally winning fans back after a rocky launch. Then it's the main event: a head-to-head showdown between two of the hosts' personal favorites, Bram Stoker's Dracula and World Cup Soccer (1994). The guys break down both machines layout, design pedigree, and theme integration, from Dracula's punishing multi-multiball stacking and blood-red DMD to World Cup Soccer's buttery flow, asymmetric flippers, and city-to-city narrative arc. Who will win which awards, and who walks away with the title of GC? Tune in to find out! ** Legal Stuff ** Break by Abbynoise Music from #Uppbeat License code: 2TE8B1NCXZ0IHVXE
