This a super fun game. Am a fan of the show, but not a superfan. The rules make sense to me and the theme gets you engaged and heart pumping. I find it challenging, but not too impossible. My favorite Stern from the last few years (except perhaps GZ). Definitely my favorite pro of the last few years (GZ premium beats this).

A dream theme for me, but disappointing on a few levels. The animations feel like a slot machine. The play is a bit flowy and clunky. The sounds (not music) seem off and not like part of the theme. It doesn't feel like it was made by someone who loved the movie, but was only superficially aware of the theme.

The shots are nice for me and one of the better feeling JJ games.

This is a fun game. The fan and spinning discs on the playfield do help you immerse yourselves in the theme. The million point shot (upper flipper sideways ramp) is still satisfying to hit *every* time. The multi-ball is challenging and rewarding. A good balance. The game is still fun and one of the best games from it's era. The biggest annoyances are some of the repetitions of the callouts, hitting the scoops a little too much, and isn't setup right, some bad drains via orbit shots.

Game is enhanced (for me) with LEDs and you won't burn your eyes out if you upgrade. Not always the case for S11 games.

I'm a huge GnR fan so I love the music and theme, but I can't feel the love for this game I'd rather just play another game while playing GnR on the stereo. Issues I have with the game: multiball heavy; hate the ball launch; layout is strange to me, especially the left side; too much multiball (never thought that was possible) and it's too easy to attain. The JJP flipper mush is noticed too. I've also played this at various locations as the playfields seem to always be trashed. Especially the spinning disc.

Pros: The music is great and has a nice mix of tunes from their discography. The lighting is great. Rules are somewhat clear.

Not a huge Deadpool fan (but not against it either), but this game knocks it out of the park. The game is on point for the theme and this has to be one of the prettiest looking Sterns out there. I love the challenges and modes. The animations and attention to detail there are one of the better Stern efforts of this era. Ninja multiball is awesome. Love the katana sword for locking balls. The game has a great flow and doesn't get old. This is fun, fun, fun. I really wish I owned one of these.

I'm not a fan of most band games, but this is one of my favorites. The music is good and I can play this over and over. Pros: Music (if you like AC/DC), animations, cannon, and hitting the bell. Cons: The modes aren't super interesting to me, playfield art is not so good, just something missing (for me) which doesn't have me coming back to it.

Fun game and easy to understand. I will always play this when I see it. Not a huge fan of the theme, but integration is spot on. The game is fun and everything comes together really nicely. I'd own one if I didn't have daughters in the house.

This game has a nice flow. Love the cannon, lower playfield, music, and rules. The art work is so-so. Not as fun for casual players or kids who aren't into ac/dc.

Like many here, I'm not a fan of the theme, but enjoy this game. Despite not being an Iron Maiden fan, the music and art is packaged well together and it all fits. It's not annoying or too repetitive for a band that I don't get (will say the same thing if a Rush game ever comes out). The animations are cool and I really like the flow at the top of the game. The left shots are a bit challenging for me. When I see this game on free play at someone's house or an arcade, I'll play. But I won't drop money in this if there are other Sterns around.

I’m this game integrates the theme well. If you’re into wrestling, or this period of wrestling, the game captures it well. There are a lot of shots here, with varying difficulty. The rules make sense and there’s a lot to go for. Multiball is cool, especially the countdown.

No toys on the game and no interesting light show are the low scorers for me. The Data East clicking sound when translite is blinging during multi-ball ready is annoying

For it’s era and price range, it’s a good game. There is alot to do and getting to Royal Rumble mode isn't easy (for me). And surprisingly, it’s a hit with the under 12 crowd who knows nothing about the theme. Very good value -- shaker motor, upper playfield, and nice variety.

Update: Added pinsound and color DMD. Pinsound, with updated soundtrack, significantly improves the game -- especially if you're a fan of wrestling. Color DMD also enhances it, but not as much as Pinsound.

This is a fun game and one of my favorites from the era. The voices are cool and it’s one that I will always play when I see it. I really like the Multiball as it’s challenging.

Despite the shots feeling right and neat lighting, I just can't get into this game. I try everytime I see it at my local barcade and give up after a few plays.

I love the theme. This game is fun and unique. I still love it everytime the ball goes up and down that left ramp. Game is tough (which is good for me). Wish it had ball save :)

I love the flow of this game, am not a big fan of the theme, but it's a fun game which I will play whenever I see one. My kids actually love the game more than I do. A classic game.

Beautiful game, but the big space between the flippers kills me. I wish this great as it looks great, but I don't have much fun on this. I usually play a few and move on -- I've never gotten into this much where I've played for hours straight.

A weird theme that I have no interest in. The mascot dog is a bit goofy -- yet this is a fun game. My son always had fun with this game and so did his cousins, so they had me play and I get it why they like it. The goal and spinning ball are fun. On my purchase list.

Not a huge Aerosmith fan, but I enjoy this game despite it. I still mark out for the launcher and toybox. I do like how you can opt out of multiball to build up the number of balls. I do gravitate to this when I see it at a location and will drop a few bucks in it each time.

This is a fun and challenging game. It still plays well even though it's 30 years old. Most people who come over love the theme and find the game fast and fun (even with the quick drains -- 30 minute games is only an issue for you pingeeks). The light show is great, when you are going for multi-ball, the 3 domes spinning gets your heart racing and the sounds and lights when you start multiball is still one of my favorite moments in pinball. You need to play on a good machine -- alot of places have unkept and slow (really) F-14s. Find one with a clean and smooth playfield and you'll become a better player because your reaction times will improve. Steve Ritchie did a great job here!

This is one of my favorite System 11 games. I love the light show and sound effects and this brings me back to the 1980s. The theme is fun, rules are understandable. I wish there were in lanes. Ball stealing is fun and frustrating (depending on if you do it or if it happens to you). I wish I owned one of these. Condition matters on these. If you find a good one, it makes a huge difference.

"Now I see you. Pinbot circuits activated." I love that. And the sound. Great pin from this era. I've spent many quarters on this machine. It's haunting and fun. One of the reasons why I love Pinball. Great game for beginners as well.

Never saw the movie, but know enough. Not a huge fan of the theme which is maybe one reason I'm not huge into the game. I can't stand the artwork (but similar to most DE of the time) and I feel like the game is a bit klunky. Not sure why it's on the top 100. But maybe I just don't get it.

A very fun game. Especially if you like the movie. Playing with Pinsound, with the haunting soundtrack music, really does make the game better. Brings me back to the ERA. One of the best theme integrations ever. For the time, it was very cool. The shots are smooth and this is a good game to introduce folks into before getting into super deep games that follow a few years later.

I always play one of these when I see it.

First of all, I love the theme. This is my dream theme as I'm a huge mark for this TV show. I would race home every day from school to see Batman re-runs on channel 5. The integration of the theme, from artwork to sounds to the great use of all of the video (one of the benefits of having a huge catalog of material say compared to a movie) makes this a wonderful experience if you loved the show. The game is deep and challenging. The shots are tough for me (this isn't AFM or MM) and the game can get frustrating at times -- but this is why I love it. The wizard modes are tough to get to (for me), but achievable. Holy Robin Multiball is my favorite and exhilarating when it happens.

Integration with the clips from the show is great -- sometimes it's too much fun and you get distracted and miss the ball in play. Attention to detail with the clips is great. It wasn't just slapped together. When Bruce and Dick run to the batpoles, it's from the actual episode that kicks off that mode. It makes a difference (e.g. Holy Cowabunga for the surfing episode).

I love the fact that you have so many different ways to play -- there's so much variety between the minor and major villain modes. And for newbies, there's the Joker surfing mode which is a quite easy.

I had a bunch of kids over for a family party a few weeks ago and this was the game they all gravitated to the most.

Fun, fun, fun game and it's a keeper.

I'm greedy and want a third version of each of the major villains! Lyman: I'll be your best friend if you want add more to the code :)
