    "Boo. I'm ready now."-HotHamBoy I'm with ya there HHB. Boo. I was ready now too. I'd rather get a working product late than a rushed messed-up one "on-time" though.

    Fantasy Poll: Buy A Pinball Table!

    I bought a Ghostbusters Pro a couple months back as my first pinball ever and am loving it. Except when I'm hating Trudeau. And his gap. And the airballs, SO many airballs. I played Batman '66 at Midwest Gaming Classic and really liked it. Trying to resist loading a crowded basement with pins...

    Favorite Movie Table (Any Era)

    I would have voted LoTR #1 in my poll, if it were available. I dearly love all things Addams, from cartoons in the New Yorker to the two movies with Raul Julia and the rest of that cast to the legendary pinball machine. I voted TAF for the poll. I played that board throughout the 90's in bars...

    This season I will NOT be buying a season pass. Reasons within.

    Hope springs eternal, friends. Stars on the backglass? Only Patrick Stewart and the TNG crew, Arnold Schwartzenegger (twice), Gary Oldman, Anthony Hopkins, Tom Waits, Raul Julia, Angelica Huston, Christopher Lloyd, Christina Ricci, Kenneth Branagh, Robert De Niro, and Helena Bonham Carter...so far.

    This season I will NOT be buying a season pass. Reasons within.

    I seriously had been thinking until today that I might get the Season 7 pass even with Paragon, but the announcement of Wipeout killed that idea in its tracks. A table I personally don't care for as the season lead off after a fan vote where it is the clear winner, that I could handle. Follow it...

    This season I will NOT be buying a season pass. Reasons within.

    Hi all, especially Farsight workers, After the awful problems with Season 6 and the overabundance of Gottliebs, I will not be buying a season pass for Season 7. Paragon is in my opinion, little fun IRL given the left (drain) "pop bumper array" and the fact you cannot trap on the right. I...

    Table Pack #61 Speculation

    Right there with ya wolfson and Trackball!!!! I too am hoping the worst is behind us. Still thinking of deciding with my wallet. Months of disappointing, hard to look at Gottliebs (EM's excepted) we've endured, bad rollout of half cooked product for SPA; and now FINALLY back to the core of what...

    Science Lady...Sue Storm?

    Anybody else here notice a resemblance between Science Lady in blue on the lower playfield to Susan Storm-Richards of the Fantastic Four Marvel Comics?

    First Impressions

    EccentricFlower, check out the flyer for C37. Some backstory but on there but not much. These two EM's are rather good. Clean flow, damn the outlane drains, full speed ahead. These things must have been primo quarter suckers back in the day. I too like the art.

    First Impressions

    I agree they both play well, no seeming immediate physics issues. I too made the standard goals on each of these in one game each, and I'm not a very good wizard either. Wiz goals seem more challenging. The classic and appealing art is a blessing after BB's...busy design. I played the Jacks Open...

    Can you remember the first pinball tables you ever played?

    I was 5 or 6, and Mom and Dad had taken I and my toddler brother to the Ground Round restaurant in Morton Grove on Dempster Street. There, amid the peanuts shells and a Sea Wolf video game and a jukebox, was a game that would alter my life. The game was Little Chief, and as soon as that quarter...

    Midwest Gaming Classic 2016 (Brookfield, WI)

    Just two more weekends until the MGC! Who else on this board is going? I've been there, and you WILL get your money's worth in entertainment at this show. I'll be posting reviews, and maybe pics (I have a dimphone, tiny camera.) I might borrow a piece of the GF's tech for camera purposes.

    First impressions...

    First game, two standard goals down. Feels like it came out with the same thumbprint as Tee'd Off. Thematically it's........very earnest. The dramatic seriousness of "saving lives" is pretty heavy-handed. It bears the stamp of its network sponsor, writ large. I like the left pocket, and the ramp...

    Midwest Gaming Classic 2016 (Brookfield, WI)

    I was there last year. It IS awesome. I went Saturday afternoon and it was amazing. Row upon row, rank upon rank of pins and coin-op style cabinet video games; all on free play for the price of admission to the show. I'm a Solid State guy so I'm going to make sure I show up Friday night this...
