First thing I do is look on IPDB, then look for youtube vids, then ask around.

A great responce (thanks to all) Im mainly..totaly into 90s pins all though i have some 89models so i dont play many older machines i use to have 1984 willams ''space shuttle'' that i liked  (good game) but the back box caught on fire so i sold the game older games have more problems with conectors getting brittle ,old..  anyways i also owned pinball 2000 ''star wars ep 1'' boring (crap game) my favorate at the moment is 1989 willams  ''whirlwind'' great game..awsome..
cheers .... DAZ..

Whirlwind is a very good pinball, and it's on the non-existent wishlist.

There's not too many I would walk away from mid-ball but I can't see any merit in Stern's Orbitor 1, I'm afraid. Disclaimer: I have not played one, but it has to be the ugliest playfield ever, and the concept is just so so wrong.

Kev, I've been using it in combination with VP & PinMAME to get a better idea.

Even on it's own it's an amazing resource.

I bought a Twilight Zone based on all the kudos it seems to get, and after having played one at the local Time Zone albeit in poor condition play wise with a number of targets broken and weak flippers, but enough of the theme 9which I love) evident to make it something worth trying.

Sold it six months later - I'd start a game and turn it off after the first ball - just could not enjoy it.

Someone on here must own a Popeye, they are just not admitting to it...

TZ - while it has depth, some people want a pin that grabs you early on in the game, not only if you achieve all the goals. I haven't played it enough to decide yet.

HAVE U PLAYED STREETFIGHTER ? ITS A HARD & FAST GAME THE LONGER U KEEP THE BALL IN PLAY THE BETTER IT GETS (MORE REWARD FEATURES) ITS EASY TO GET 2 BALL MULTIBALL BUT JUST WAIT TILL U GET 3 BALL IT AINT EASY IVE HAD MINE ABOUT 5 YEARS IM STILL NOT BOARD IT GREAT ONE OF THE MOST ANOYING THINGS ABOUT JD IS THE LACK OF SOUND/SPEECH DURING GAMEPLAY THE GAME HAS MORE SOUND/SPEECH DURING "SUPERGAME" MODE
