    Old SDTM shows got me into pinball, because of the passion you guys have for the hobby. It made me realize there was something more to the game and I went way down the rabbit hole. Glad to see you fellas doing more shows. You two are great for the hobby and are always entertaining. Thank you for my addiction.

    I honestly can’t choose which Elwin I like better. I think my order is Godzilla Jaws Maiden JP and then IQ with Bond 60th still an outlier because I haven’t played it, but code might change that order for me once Jaws is at 1.0. Jaws was a dream theme for me. I wrote a 40 page final paper for my film appreciation class on it. I’ve probably bought the film 6 times at this point between VHS Laserdisc, DVD and, anniversary DVD, Blu Ray and now 4K. It’s easily a top 3 film for me, and the second this game was announced I knew I needed to have it.

    Jaws is up there with Wonka for me and right behind Godzilla. Godzilla>Wonka>=Jaws>J. Park. Jaws just shoots great, it really does. Once you figure out where you need to go, it really does play great. The only drawn back for the premium is that when the shark goes down sometimes if you hit the ball fast enough it goes with it and you have to wait for it to get pushed back up. It really sucks when you are doing a multiple ball because the game doesn't sense it's down there so you will end up with one less ball unless you active jaws or you run out of balls during that time. Also on that same shot the ball can get stuck behind Jaws when he is going down (there is a wood piece there that the ball gets jam into) making you have to take off the glass to pull it out. I am good enough not to usually have either one of those happen, but my wife and anyone coming over usually gets the first thing to happen to them a few times. Outside of that, the game just plays really great to me.

    Great review, I'm glad I'm not the only one that has a hard time distinguishing between modes and variations in light colors...but as you said, this game will only get better. I play a pro model in an arcade setting where I'm playing lots of the new Sterns side by side and I love how unique the Jaws table looks and plays. The playfield is so open (without feeling "empty" like Zeppelin) and the ball shows up so well against the blue. I'm constantly trapping the ball with the flippers or mini flipper to pause between shots yes the game still seems fairly fast paced and the clips and audio do a good job of keeping the tension up. As many times as you can get the lifering or have the ball feed back in from right outline, it feels very forgiving... that said, I haven't even been able to catch one "bounty hunt" shark yet ...

    The movie snippets on the screen for landing shots feel very cheap to me. I would prefer someting that matches the desgin and the theme of the board and gives you a feeling of accomplishment when hitting lanes or combos. And this compllaint i have to many stern tables. Some pixel drawings that repersent the shot similar to the boards you have on consoles or the older ones a way cooler and i still hope that one day thay will create such board. It really lovers the quality when they just put some movie snippets in. Its just too easy and often doesnt fit the board itself

    ...honestly, I don't like Jaws. Probably Elwin's weakest pin so far. Too much unused space in the middle and I'm not a fan of captive ball shots required to start main modes, seems to cause weird return angles. Shots to this element can come back uncontrollable and drain, similar to shield shots on AFM. Speaking of playfields, the upper playfield covering the lanes and hiding the ball is also not something I enjoy. That, plus the aforementioned issue with the lip of the shark popup makes the Pro preferred over Premium, which is just kinda awkward from a marketing perspective. (Although I do really like the upper playfield shot, reminds me of Gladiators). I dunno, may be an issue with my local machine but I'd rather play literally anything else in the Stern catalog.

    Was waiting on this one. Enjoyed it. I have a premium JP, Zilla, and Stranger. Got the Jaws LE. Glad I did. Beautiful cab. Pr/LE upgrades necessary on this one. Do not like the premium artwork. LE is gorgeous. I would say, when my friends come over, this is the one they like to play. None of us are good btw. But it shoots so smooth. And we are all late 40s, so this theme is money to us. I find myself playing this one the most alone. Could be because it's newer. But it's a much longer game. I love multi-player games. And honestly, Jaws is not good for that. The turns take too long. But people that don't play much love it the most of the 4. Awesome machine. And fellas, I did have 1 magical over a billion game....

    This reminds me a little bit of when St. Anger came out. Every person with a brain noticed that it was not very good, but all the critics would not dare to speak the truth. This is not that bad compared to Elwins previous games, but it really looks to be the weakest. Stern has cost cut the playfields so much, that it is a joke now. Their Premiums should be Pros. (Pros should never have been made). For the 10k price of a Premium, it should at least contain a few cool toys or other features.

    I have a JP premium and looking at the two next to each other there seems to be a lot more variety of shots in JAWS. I think when the code gets finalized the Jaws may be a bit better. Agreed that all of Elwins games have been a lot of fun.
