[QUOTE="invitro, post: 241570, member: 446"] It's been a poor season IMO. I voted 3, but would change to 4 now. The only total dud is Rescue 911 (I've barely played TX-Sector). There are no transcendent tables or nothing really close, but several tables with some fun, though almost all get boring very quickly. There's a reason these were not released earlier for TPA (beyond the licenses, I think). My rankings, ratings (out of 10) and some brief comments: 1. (10) F-14 Tomcat - This is a rare TPA table where I have a huge nostalgia bonus. 2. (10) Last Action Hero - I was very surprised at the huge amount of strategy in this one, especially in tournament games. 3. (10) High Speed 2 - Too easy, but still so much fun, up to the two-hour point I guess. 4. (9) Hurricane - I used to say this was the most boring WMS table of the 1990's. I was way wrong, it's fun and even has a bit of strategy. 5. (8) Frankenstein - Would be an easy 10 except for the unfortunate 9999M score limit. 6. (7) No Fear - Fun in very small doses, but timing out half the game sucks. 7. (7) El Dorado (EM) - Kind of fun, challenging, a finger in the eye of anyone who likes rules. 8. (7) Fireball - I need to play this again... I think using the good strategy is not so much fun. 9. (6) Judge Dredd - A shame it's so easy to get infinite EB's, a shame rules are so shallow. I don't think I've played it since the first couple of days it was out. Tournaments could save it, if Farsight ever makes it happen, come on FS what's the problem here? (Fireball and El Dorado are also tournament-missing.) 10. (2) Rescue 911 - Yuck, gross, probably my least favorite TPA table. ? TX-Sector - If I don't find a way to hit those side shots, this will go in the dust heap too. Season 6 will have Indy 500 and Dr. Who, and I think Pinball Magic and Big Bang Bar, and probably AG Soccer-Ball. I have high hopes for all of those (and thus of S6), but there's no way to tell how quickly they'll get boring. [/QUOTE]
