[QUOTE="JoshuaKadmon, post: 29526, member: 1046"] I tend to agree. While I do enjoy an even mix of EM, alphanumeric SS, and DMD machines, I find that most of my personal favorites are non-DMD tables between 1979 and 1988. That includes Gorgar, Xenon, Haunted House, Swords of Fury, and a bunch of other alphanumerics. I think of pinball as a high form of craftsmanship amongst entertainment media, and I will agree that most of Stern's tables from the last decade don't exactly scream "artisan". I would much prefer the art of Gorgar / Jungle Lord over those "happy meal toys" VonDoom mentioned. As far as how the tables play, newer Sterns aren't bad, but they do feel unnecessarily cluttered and nonsensical when compared to the straightforward and skill-based objectives of Centaur, Black Hole, or dozens of other classics.
