Come clean about a game
« on: January 20, 2013, 04:03:16 PM »
Be honest now. What title have you played and quietly enjoyed yet hear everyone else bag on the forums or at pinball meets.

Congo for me. Mr rtbb absolutely hates this title and I have agreed whole hearty during discussions but deep down I'm thinking "it wasn't such a bad player from memory"

So there you go I've outted myself, now your turn.

I always liked twister and bought one but the amount of times I heard people put crap on it was incredible.

Gottlieb system 3's I think they are great bang for bucks. My cactus jacks and wipe out aren't going anywhere.

Capcom Flipper Football. Has lots of critics. I bought mine as a "parts store" while waiting for BBB. Ended up buying a new display for it - I love playing this game, especially on "adult" mode with the referee loosing the plot as the game goes on.

I'll nominate mine, being Operation Thunder.  Cheap Gottlieb, but great fun, light show and value for a $1200 machine.

Avatar. This would likely be on the bottom of Stern fans list, but I've always enjoyed the game.

Street Fighter 2.

Played most DMD's out there. This title is a great player, particularly if you like the video game. Don't care what anyone says about it !

+1 for SFII. Had one in great condition and sold it. My non-pinball hobbyist friends loved it because they liked SFII and understood the rules easily enough. I'd like to own it again down the track if I could find one in nice condition.

+2 Street Fighter. Just because it is a theme on a video game, it cops a lot of flak. A really good game.

GTB Genesis is also a fantastic machine.

Yours was the best example of one i have seen. Looked awesome!  ^^^

I have not got a chance to play one yet but i would say Waterworld for me....I get the feeling i will like it due to the theme  !^! (yes i loved the movie!). As a side note if anyone has one they would like to let a stranger play...... *)*

+1 on Judge Dredd. I also quite enjoyed Demolition Man for a few years but that was more about the pub it was in :)

A game I have heard cop a lot of crap is Gilligans Island.
Not terribly difficult but I thought it was quite fun to play.
