I was there this weekend and they had the glass off and were taking video and pictures. Pretty thorough, but not sure what the reason might be. Anyone know?

On a side note, my wife and I took my brother to Vegas as a graduation gift. It was his first time at PHOF and his girlfriend's first time playing. They both enjoyed it. He got a kick out of several machines and she really liked ACDC.

Did you by chance ask anyone doing the picture taking? You know, while you were there? Maybe take a picture of the picture takers so we might identify them?

This could help answer your question.

I didn't. I jumped on Shrek so I could play and chit chat with my guests and after that we wandered a bit and played down the isles. I noticed and watched PC a few times, but I didn't think to ask until we had already left. They had asked, so I was showing them the differences in ages and features of the types of machines. It went a lot better than I expected so I. Was happily distracted. Tim was not there, that I saw, so I'm guessing it was some of the LV pin club that was doing the documenting.

It would be cool if it was the guys from Farsight and they are going to add it to the Pinball Arcade.

I played that Machine with the wife when we went there several years ago. It was so cool and like nothing you ever saw before. I took some pics that I'll look for. I think they are on an old phone. If you go to Vegas, you have to see the PHOF. John

I got to play it on the last trip. Completely agree that it is worth it. A virtual version would be nice for those who can't get to PHOF to play it.

Or maybe a remake for those who want one?

It would be absolutely miserable on a virtual system, there's really no point. Flat screen on a virtual pin + super tall game = pass.
