Some are missing the point, its far too early for ratings on any of the ac/dc models to settle properly.  its been only a handful of months since release and a very small amount of people have played the ac/dc titles. U cant possibly compare that circumstance to machines that have been out since 1993 etc that are very well known and very well played like Indy Jones. Next Gen or Twilight etc. Anyone with any sense would understand that surely.
20 years versus 4 months of exposure.
 
Also, those pinball machines released almost 20 years ago were released in the era of pinball being at its peak, with the technology of some of the super pin widebodies being amazing for their time.  It wont be a level playing field on any of these pinball ratings for many years to come.

Anyone who owns a AC/DC machine knows how good they are and thats all that matters. People who dont own them, who havent played them, or have played one once or twice only for a 5 minute period havent seen the gold that the AC/DC owners have. I only listen to negative comments from people who have extensive collections. Sometimes I think there is such a thing as AC/DC pinball purchase envy.lol  The cure is to ring AMD and just buy one of the AC/DC models.lol
I am not sure about the fanboys thing. I dont think it matters that much to anyone who owns B/W titles, not enough to double score titles anyway. The whole pinside rating system is only a guide, and the best way to rate a pin is to listen to ya head and heart when you play any title.
