Since we've just gone through a Premier/Gottlieb-heavy Season 6, this poll is back and expanded!
The Premier/Gottlieb tables in TPA get a huge bashing. From Cue Ball Wizard to Cactus Jack's, they're almost universally lambasted with endless amounts of scorn poured over them. Surely though, there's a silver lining somewhere? A diamond in the rough? A secret favorite?
After a session playing Tee'd Off, I got to thinking. Tee'd Off isn't all that bad. Not great, sure, but at least it doesn't take itself seriously, the DMD animations aren't lame like most of the other Premier/Gottliebs, the call-outs are only slightly annoying, and even better it doesn't attempt to blow your ears off with endless guitar solos like No Good Gofers!
So, here's a poll. Vote, or don't vote. There is no "none of the above" option because this poll is all about making a hard choice! Suck it up and vote!
Note: Premier Technologies was a management buy-out of Gottlieb (at the time renamed Mylstar by its owners Coca Cola(!)) in October 1984. So only games under the Gottlieb brand from 1984 onwards count for this poll. Which is why you can't vote for Central Park, Big Shot, Jacks Open, Centigrade 37, El Dorado, Genie, Black Hole, Haunted House, or (sorry) Goin' Nuts. El Dorado City Of Gold was a Mylstar-era Gottlieb whose production was continued by Premier, so it does count.
