[QUOTE="Kaoru, post: 6577, member: 231"] I voted for "ToM" when the poll was creatred... but by now "Black Hole" eclipsed it by a wide margin. It may be a very simple table, but because the goals are so easy to figure out it's easier to stay focused and never lose sight of what to go for. It's the table I play the most and have the most fun with. Besides, it's the only table that I'm really good at, haha. :D Having spot #100 on the overal best list feels pretty good. *g* BTW, I love how the table messes with my head. The colours, the looks, the sounds (Have you ever played it with headphones on? Man, that robot voice going "Ah!" when you hit the slingshot is sick.), the sudden upside down-gameplay when the ball enters the lower level... It feels as if you're playing the pinball equivalent to Polybius. :D "ToM" is my second now. I love the flow of the game, how one shot leads into another. It really [i]feels[/i] good to play the game, even when it's not going very well. *g* And I love the voices! "Tales of The Arabain Drains", "Drains of The Arabian Nights" or whatever it's called pretty much annoys me though. There's no point in repeating what I've said in another thread already... but to keep it short: I hardly come back to it anymore now that I've finished all wizard goals. Rating "Ripley" is a tough one. Generally I want to like table more than I actually do... but boy, it's just so hard to like. At least for me it is. There definitely is a lot to do on the table... which is good. But why does it have to look so cluttery and plain [i]fugly[/i]? It took me a lot of games to figure out what's actually going on on it. And then there are those terrible sounds. The idol's backwards screeching, the loud penguin chatter, the totally out of place pewpewpew of the spinners, the shrunken head's voice... Argh, my ears!
