I've still not installed this, the attract mode now is much more "woz" which is cool to see, shows the Stern technology is just as good. I hope they have the time and resources to put those types of effects in the game.

from pinside, looks like this update is very minor.

I have to suspect that the MET update will be huge when it comes. just wish Stern would communicate better. If Lyman was allowed to talk, I think people would be happy to wait.

Metallica owners must be pissed ;)

Not so much.
I can't really expect Stern to honour rumours, they never confirmed an XMAS update.
And as we have seen, new games often get minor updates in the months following release.


Pissed? NO
Ever buying another Stern before it is complete? NO
