[QUOTE="shutyertrap, post: 285740, member: 134"] There was Alvin G Soccer, a table FarSight had planned on putting in TPA but since they never figured out the whole Head 2 Head online thing, I think the idea got scrapped. There's also the Williams Joust table, which I think based on what you do on your side of the playfield affects what happens on your opponent's. Not real sure, I've only ever put hands on it once. And then there's my holy grail table, which is NBA Fastbreak. That one got linked via cable to another Fastbreak and you scored against the other player. I believe it too had things where if one table activated something it would affect the other. I don't know what the realities of having something like Joust or Alvin G Soccer are, given it would have to track the other player's balls and actions all with no lag, and you'd fully see it happening. At least with NBA Fastbreak lag doesn't matter as it's only scores and lighting cues that would change. As for a four person pinball...Hungry Hungry Hippos Pinball Adventure!! Can you imagine the floor space something like that would take? Oh and by the way, you know you're in the full throws of pinball addiction when you start imagining rule sets. It's a slippery slope one of our early members went down and he made full documentation for EVERYTHING. It's a fun mental space to be in. [/QUOTE]
