I have played an almost NIB version and gave it a good work out.  In my opinion, if you like T2, you should enjoy T3 a lot.  If I had to choose between either, I would go a T3 but mod it out with full LED's and a pinball pro sub kit (same as I did for my T2).

Certainly one of the better playing Sterns.

I have a T2 and I purchased a T3 for a mate around the corner so I play both regularly. I love the T2, so obviously you would think I would love the T3 and yes I do! There are some similarities between them but the lanes are quick and playfield quite fast but the best feature is the RPG in the backbox. Once you master all the security levels etc it really comes alive! So if your thinking of one you will not be dissapointed in my opinion.

I love the theme being a big Terminator fan, and quite enjoy this game. Never had a long enough time on one though to really appreciate it, or see if it has the depth of some of the Sterns of its era.

I know where your coming from mark,many rave about TSPP yet after dropping $20 in one i still cant see what the fuss is about,guess i will have to find the time to come in and have a game once you have it on the floor.sounds like a good excuse to visit your pinball nirvana ()

Apparently this is so true of coffee, maybe it depends on who is making it...
