STERN - Big Buck Hunter

Buscando posts no encontré nada al respecto en los foros hispanos, aunque supongo que los que ojeais RGP ya lo sabríais.

Aunque aún no está presentada en público la "24", en RGP ya comentan que los dos próximos títulos de Stern están adjudicados a John Borg (IJ4 entre otros diseños).

El primero es Big Buck Hunter, basado en el juego arcade de Play Mechanix / Incredible Technologies



A pesar de ser una licencia, coincido con algunas opiniones de RGP que lo califican como "lo más parecido a un tema no licenciado", y es que a algunos les ha pasado igual que a mí y al ver la temática lo primero que se les viene a la mente es una nueva Fish Tales.

Por mi parte ojalá sea así, me parece una temática que la pueden transformar en lo que quieran, si quieren le pueden sacar el punto humorístico como con la Fish Tales, y en el tema de los artes supongo que no tendrán tantas ataduras como con las licencias de cine y podrán poner unos dibujos que queden chulos tanto en el tablero como en el mueble.

Por otra parte también ha comentado las cifras de ventas un operador que dice tener fuentes fiables, y habla de que se han vendido algo menos de 1900 unidades de la BDK, 2500 de la IJ4 y 400 de la CSI (por ahora, que aún se está comercializando).

pues para ser basada en una licencia televisiva, me gusta bastante la parte artística de la "24", el translite me mola, normalmente no me gustan los montajes que hacen con fotos de actores de carne y hueso.
