    Official Williams Volume 2 news

    Okay, I have yet to see an actual AFM machine out there in the wild to see how it plays in real life. But 9 out of 10 center shots being assured STDM drains? Really? Really? I mean, it's not like the whole center section isn't the most essential target of the table or something. Okay, I suppose...

    Zen Pinball FX3 Williams Pinball Volume One

    Hrmmm. The overwhelming positivity here boggles my mind a bit. The more I spend time with this pack, the less I'm happy with it. No matter how much power there is behind your shot - the ball barely gets halfway up the ramp in 9 out of 10 cases. Are the tables set up in a 90 degree angle or...

    The 1.100.000 bonus wizard goal

    This is exactly what I did plenty of times by now, as mentioned above. But the game just doesn't care. :confused:

    The 1.100.000 bonus wizard goal

    Is it possible that this particular goal is bugged? I got quite a few decent scores out of this table so far, and I feel as if I should have gotten it a couple of times, but I'm not quite sure since it's possible that I just don't quite "get" it. The way I understand it I have to completely...

    Farfalla 2017 Released

    Oh, I'm doing fine, thank you very much. Can't complain about the scores I've got. But well, opinions may differ on such things, but I personally think it's a real design flaw when you've got an orbit dispatch hole (or whatever one wants to call it) at the start that drops the ball into the...

    Farfalla 2017 Released

    Should be called "Center Drain - The Game".

    Safecracker Tokens?

    Hah! I gave up on that table, let alone even that one particular wizard goal, a long time ago. ;) And I don't think I'll ever look back. Anyway, so far I've got 9 tokens and a couple of dublicates. Feels a bit like grinding, really. They probably should have went for something like activiating...

    Safecracker Tokens?

    I quite like this table, especially because it offers something a little different. A round might not take too long, but the rules are still deep enough. I only wish Farsight would stop doing these luck based wizard goals. Collecting the full token set? I'm sorry, that has nothing to do with...

    First Impressions

    Played it a few times and it seems to be a pretty cool table that will give you a fun time once you start to get really into it. ...but here's the thing: The "Coming soon!" announcement in the rules section is... how should I put it... really quite something. Okay, so the guy who usually does...

    Party Zone first impressions

    I don't get this table. The theme is strangely vague, there are tons of seemingly unrelated stuff on the playfield, plenty seemingly unrelated modes to unlock... and I don't understand the whats, whens and whys. Of course, I could look into the instructions and all that, but I just can't be...

    Double Score Impossible?

    I've got that double score wizard goal, but that's more due to luck than anything else. I find the ramp shot to be terribly elusive and almost as unattainable as the right orbit on "High Roller Casino". No matter what I try and do, I just can't find the right angle. So my impression is that the...

    First impressions?

    Another reason: "Dracula" is a fairly straightforward table on which you don't have to go through manymany modes to get to a certain wizard goal or something. On games like "Star Trek" you're constantly busy trying to get "somewhere", but ultimately fail early because the balls drain all the...

    First impressions?

    I haven't seen the movie since the mid-90s - or whenever it was when they first showed it on TV. I don't remember much about it, except for not being terribly impressed, and that it felt rather stagey and somewhat over the place. Coppola is a bit of a hit-and-miss affair anyway. Either his films...

    Worst Video Mode Ever

    No, the REAL question is what the hell they all think they're doing on the highway in the first place! But anyway, I never understood all the hate that this pin gets. Okay, the video mode IS annoying and I wish someone would erase it out of the game completely, but the gameplay of the table...

    First impressions?

    He's one of the main reasons why I'll never be able to grab a #1 spot in my friend leaderboards. ;) Anyway, it's a pretty good pin! The design doesn't look like much at first glance, but the more you play the more you find the depth in the game. And Mist Multiball is one really cool mode. I...
