Thanks guys, without both of you AA wouldn't be in my line up. Only had it for a few days but love it.

Brilliant art and the quality of your pins sets a nice mood. Makes me want to jump through the PC monitor and get in and play.

Yes played it a few nights while it belonged to another member here. Personally I love this game, it's rule set is easy to understand but difficult to achieve, plenty of drop targets and everything on the playfield is integral if you want to score big, the backglass and playfield art is also stunning. In my opinion it also has the best sound effects of all the system one games (very closely followed by Buck Rogers, which is similar). The sci-fi theme also hits the right spot for me.

The bad, well not many of theses were made so specific parts could be very difficult to find if I ever break anything and it's also a single player. But that's about all I can say at the moment. It's to new for me to have many negative thoughts about it.

Very very nice line up. AA is an interesting title.

Would be funny if Raven walked into the bar. You would need to call Medusa in case there is any trouble  @@^

Or Bad Girls. But then again, they are already in a bar.

Just beautiful..

Annies on my wish list. Love the artwork.

Those solid state gottliebs, have challenging gameplay. Hard to get long ball play times. Scoring an extra ball or special is really rewarding.

I've owned all of these over the years and my favourite was the BoP. It can get slated a bit here in the UK for not having a deep rule set, but I never worried about that.  I just loved slotting the balls in the head to get things started. I'd love another one too!

BOP is just shoot the left ramp all day, isn't it?

It's true there are plenty of deeper games but they're not all as fun as BoP. It really is a great all round game that looks and sounds cool too. Strategy wise if you were playing it in a tournament or focusing on a top score then the left ramp is the go. The reward for all the multiple hits on the left ramp is awesome too. Turning the brides head and hearing her sing is one of the coolest rewards in pinball not to mention then if the "big wheel" falls your way you have a chance at the Billion point shot.
There are plenty of other challenges too. The right loop is a great shot to hit and build your jackpot and the left loop builds up in value with each consecutive hit until you light extra ball but if you're not fast enough the value drops. Heartbeat shot is also feels great when you hit it in the sweet spot.
