« on: February 28, 2010, 08:18:52 PM »
Trying to make my mind up on my next machine/any thoughts on depth and game play and prices for this title?? Just also thought about a FT-never really played one for a long period but theres a load of love for this title?

Agree with EB.  No more than 2500 for a really nice one though.  There seems to be plenty of them around.

Peter,

Did you play a game of JP?

I'm just thinking around the price range a Last Action Hero might be worthwhile to look at?  Awesome fun to play.

Pete, My tales from the Crypt is a blast, and they can be had for the $1800 to $2200 mark. Fun machine. Light show is bloody good. Audio with the talking skeleton/crypt keeper is funny and the gory dotmatrix videos are fun. A great machine.

My fishtales is also a blast. It is also lots of fun. I know of an immaculate fishtales for sale that has original cabinet decals that are not faded at all. This is rare. My mate wants $2500 for it. PM me if u are interested.
p.s- x files i think is better than both of the above, but close.

Pete,

I've enjoyed FT every time I've played it.  My missus loves it and thinks its very funny too.  I guess the plus side to a FT is lots of parts being manufactured for it ie ramps, plastics and decals.

Would I add one to the collection.  Definitely.  Just waiting for one at the right price which I can afford.

Thanks Guys,

Is there plenty to do? what about modes and that short of stuff?

I've been looking on google and it looks fun like WH20 and they would look nice together hey?

A TALE FROM THE CRYPT:
An object was found in the crypt which  purported to be the "petrified penis of a past & popular Persian prince".
Closer examination revealed it was the "crystallised crap of a creep who crept into the crypt, crapped & crept out again".
Try saying it quickly.

Seriously though, I'd love to hear any opinions of TFTC it's on the creepy machine wish list.
Let us know if you acquire one Peter!

A good FT is a keeper pin.

fishtales is a GREAT family pin and would look very much "at home" next to a Whitewater.

2k tops for tftc, a cracker sold up this way for under that recently.

fishies is ok, unless you have a big collection it gets old pretty quick imo but the plus side is that there will always be more of a market for FT than TFTC if you ever want to offload....

in saying that, there are more pins than buyers at the moment and heaps more on the way. good if your buying.
