Well played, Mauer.

Here's a picture of the game. I'm definitely feeling the style of it.

Also included in this link is a picture of Plinko's new LCD score display from behind.

Looks pretty spiffy. I'm liking the designs on the newer games.

And there's complaints about the new LCD Plinko screen. iAy dios mio!

I do think it ruins the Feng Shui.  Other than that, meh.

Honest question: do they make screens longer than 16:9?

I'm sure it's possible for specialized applications, why?

How do you know it's "very exciting" when it hasn't been seen on the air yet?

You know, that would be a perfectly fine reason, the aesthetics of it all might look weird. But the impression I get from some of the G-R posters is "ZOMFG! Change!1! It's not the eggcrates so I'll never watch again!!1!"

The same Chicken Little reaction that the modified IUFB screens got, and honestly, if someone hadn't told me, I would never have known. And of course, it's not everyone, but the one or two overreactions are enough. Although I'm not fond of some of the changes the show has taken, I've never understood the idea of boycotting because the show doesn't look exactly the same way it did in 1984.

That's a damn good question. This could very well be one of Mike's "Curtain or Box" games, 'cept with a $100,000 attached to the end of it.

I like the fact that they're starting to introduce new pricing games into the fold again; it mixes things up. IIRC, is this the third new game of the Carey era (behind Gas Money and Rat Race)? Not only that, but the designs are pretty cool too- unlike the On The Spot/Time Is Money pair from the mid 00s.

Screw a money ladder- I want to see what this money......chimney......is all about.

Even with a $100,000 tag on it, the game could still blow. So, for those who say "very exciting," let's just wait and see...

Am I the only one who thinks the set piece for Rent Money looks like a birdhouse?
