Shaq Attaq Gottlieb, 1995
shooting the basket shot is the only real gimmick on this game but I still take pleasure in playing this one whenever I see it , don't care for the theme at all but was surprised by how much fun it can be

Apollo 13 Sega, 1995
this is the Pinball game that got me started in the hobby , my brother bought one on a whim & soon afterwards I was hooked & on a buying binge , overall a pretty decent game , one of Sega's better titles

one of the most classic bally games of all time , & a better player then Fathom IMO with the bonus that you can get one for a better price

Punchy the Clown Alvin G. & Co, 1993
this is a simple redemption game & its so small requiring most adults to hunch down in order to play it however it has more going on then you might expect I enjoyed playing it so much at a show I kept coming back to it over & over ....... something about shooting the drop target clowns teeth that I found satisfying

FunHouse Williams, 1990
a Pinball masterpiece by Pat Lawlor , Rudy mocking & taunting you all through this game never gets old for me

Mata Hari Bally, 1978
a classic style Bally solid state (with the exception of the 170 EM's) Many of the more senior Pinheads remember this game & are fond of it but by todays standards it feels antiquated

Gold Wings Gottlieb, 1986
the playfield on this game has perhaps the most unusual layout I have ever seen , as well as an odd flipper arrangement but it also has many different kinds of shots ,even a loop ramps shot , kind of lame art package but a fun game that gets points from me for being so different

Flash Gordon Bally, 1981
Great looking game with a gorgeous mirrored back glass , double level playfield & I loved the cheesey 80's movie , but this game is so brutal I have never really been able to Enjoy playing it
6.957/10

World Cup Soccer Bally, 1994
a decent Jpop game , the soccer theme with a dog on the back glass is confusing , an ok game to play at a show or on location but not one I would care to own

Quicksilver Stern Electronics, 1980
what a joy to play this title every time I get a chance , superb sound on this game , I wish they weren't so pricey now or I would be after one

Big Buck Hunter Pro Stern, 2010
this isn't a title you see very often but if you get a chance jump on one & flip it , in a word its Different , a shooting gallery/hunting theme with pinballs & humor , I enjoy this game more than most people & wouldn't mind owning one someday
6.965/10

24 Stern, 2009
this game is just Ok for the casual player , perhaps better for you tourney players , seems like a lot of empty open space on the playfield with shots on the left & right as well as around the top , some aspects & features on the game seem cheap , I loved the show but the Pinball falls short of being something I would want to own
7.746/10

Baywatch Sega, 1995
despite the art package & a somewhat lame theme this games Rocks! extremely fun to play , hands down the best Sega pinball machine

Black Knight Sword of Rage (Premium) Stern, 2019
I rated the Premium version of this game a little bit higher than the Pro for the upper playfield & ball lock its not the greatest upper playfield for sure but it adds something that makes this one play different
7.399/10

Black Knight Sword of Rage (Pro) Stern, 2019
Black Knight part 3 cool music , pretty good gameplay but not a Great game IMO

Iron Maiden Stern Electronics, 1982
another stunning to look at game from the earlier days of Stern but much like Viper its stellar good looks disguise a lame duck of a player

Viper Stern Electronics, 1981
This game looks great in fact it looks beautiful especially the back glass but the game play is pitiful , its a slow playing clunker of a wide body

WWE Wrestlemania (Pro) Stern, 2015
I heard a rumor that this game was originally designed to be Hunger games but for licensing or some other reason(s) it was changed to the wrestling theme , cant imagine that the Hunger games theme could have save this games layout though , as others have mentioned odd ball shots & the ball falling down form high to low , I play it when I see it at shows or on location but don't have any desire to ever own one
7.960/10

Tales from the Crypt Data East, 1993
when I first played this game I didn't get it but now a few years later I do & I like it a lot , its similar IMO with all the modes & such to Metallica but with a different layout , love the loop ramp & all the multi ball possibilities , the gory theme & the sounds may be a bit too much to have in a collection if you have young children around though
8.584/10

Family Guy Stern, 2007
this is one of my favorite Stern pins , so much to do & shoot for & when setup right it plays like butter , the miniature Stewie Pinball is a neat little feature , as almost everyone knows Shrek has an identical layout but not as humorous with callouts & mode wise , this game can have long ball times especially in tournaments with good players in the house
8.295/10

Wizard of Oz Jersey Jack, 2013
a beautiful game to look at & a real step up in Pinball with the display ,a pretty good game to play as well but I cant get past the theme to ever consider wanting to own one unless I got it for a super low price or won it in a raffle or something
6.477/10

Black Hole Gottlieb, 1981
I have never really had a good experience with this game I have played it at shows & on location etc.... but I have always found it difficult to keep ball in play if I go for any of the fun looking shots .... too bad the back glass is stunning & the lower playfield looks cool but the game leaves me feeling underwhelmed
7.615/10

The Machine: Bride of Pinbot Williams, 1991
this One is the best of the three "BOT" pins IMO , the rotating head with ball locks for eyes , then mouth for speech etc..... a really cool mech. that can still wow people the first time they see it in action
8.096/10

Fish Tales Williams, 1992
I'm not a fan of zipper flippers but I have been fond of this game since the first time I played it , this is one that has that just one more game feeling for me , Love the theme too

Cactus Canyon Bally, 1998
I have only had the opportunity to play this game on 2 different occasions but both were very nice specimens & I really dig it because its so different some entertaining callouts & nice shots , very much looking forward to see what the remake that is rumored to be coming out will be like

Dialed In Jersey Jack, 2017
lots of new technology in this pin , camera , cell phone interaction & etc.. but I have never been able to really get into this game , shoots good & all but just not my cup of Rum

The X Files Sega, 1997
sadly I have to agree with most everyone else that this game is just a miss , a big time miss ,being a fan of the old show I really tried to enjoy this game but it was an effort in futility

Champion Pub Bally, 1998
I love this game & play it every time I get a chance , the mechs. in this game like the jump rope & the reversible bash toy are unlike any other , still trying to learn all the rules , Great Pin!

Congo Williams, 1995
a game you don't see all that often but play it if you get a chance its a surprisingly fun shooter , best part of this game for me is all the Ramp shots

Earthshaker Williams, 1989
I had a really nice copy of this game for awhile & I kind of miss it now , one of the best system 11's "AFTERSHOCK!!!"

The Beatles (Gold Edition) Stern, 2018
for a single level game with no ramps this thing sure is fun to shoot , Love ripping the spinners , and most of the modes are pretty satisfying , the High price point $$$ set by Stern on this game is its only real drawback

Class of 1812 Gottlieb, 1991

Strange Science Bally, 1986
one of the better system 6803 , I love the Jacobs ladder setup & the shot even if the points multiplier is ridiculous

Kingpin (Remake - LE) Circus Maximus, 2018
I got to play this game on two different occasions (Free play Florida & Little shop of games) multiple times , perhaps the closest to an original as I will ever see , my understanding is that this first prototype was created with a lot of new old stock parts , but this one has a much larger display & its not dot-matrix either not sure what is the final plan for that display but it seemed unfinished & in need of polish both times I played it , hope these do make it into production someday as it is an enjoyable game especially in groups of 3 or more people
8.340/10

Space Station Williams, 1987
the first time I saw this game (at a show) I thought it looked cheap & uninspired because the space station toy reminded me of an upside down pie plate , but then I played it holy mother what a change in opinion after just a few games , condition green & mission accomplished simple easy to follow rules with great light show & sound reward , it instantly became one of my Favorite system 11's & I searched for one found one & fixed her up , one of my go to games for a quick fun game

Secret Service Data East, 1988
I enjoy most data east pins & this one is no exception cool looking playfield with the white house for 1 of the pop bumpers , the 3 songs in the game make it fun , the topper lighting up from left or right when the spinners are hit & the ball eater to start multi ball just like on Mousin around is another feature that I like
7.932/10

No Good Gofers Williams, 1997
Great all around game loved it while I had it & cant put my finger on why but it just wasn't a long term keeper for me , there are certain parts of the game play that remind a lot of Earth Shaker which is a good thing
7.026/10

Laser War Data East, 1987
I am partial to this era of data east games so naturally I like playing it , great 80's sounds that are cheesy but I like them , fun to shoot , love ripping the spinners on this one ,basic simple rules but the blue team lock shot can be challenging
8.156/10

Jurassic Park (Limited Edition) Stern, 2019
Super fun & challenging modes/game , the first newer Stern I have really liked since The walking dead

Big House Gottlieb, 1989
I picked up this game recently it had been on my wish list since playing one at Expo a few years back , this game is quite simple , so it may get old soon but for now I am enjoying the simple pleasure of it , the moving spotlight like a search light & the ramp that goes up & down when you "blow the bridge" are cool features & of course the corkscrew mech. that lifts the ball up to the ramp to start multiball is satisfying , shooting the jail break targets can be challenging as they have to be shot in order

Lord of the Rings Stern, 2003
I agree with "toasterman04" not into the theme... to nerdy or something.... but the game play on this title is fantastic I play it at every show I see it @ & anywhere else ....Replay's in Tarpon Springs has one

Twister Sega, 1996
probably one of the best if not the best Sega title IMO ....... Yes its a multiball fest but its just too much fun not to enjoy it , the spinning disc start to mutltiball is spectacular to behold , cool music the "everybody underground" call out gets old & its damn near impossible to find plastics for it but a great game overall
8.640/10

Black Rose Bally, 1992

Swords of Fury Williams, 1988
pretty fun to play system 11 I really like the music & sound effects on this game if they are dated & 80's sounding hearing the LIONMAN!! LIONMAN!! call out never gets old for me / for me this is probably the first title I ever got a really good deal on as far as fair price & good condition I play it almost daily

Cirqus Voltaire Bally, 1997
this is a wonderful title it was the first pin I purchased , I think I wanted it more than any other I could think of at the time its super fun to play , decent rules, stackable multiballs , joining the circus is an awesome feeling to accomplish & the crazy video mode after beating ringmaster battle & the wizard modes are epic
8.296/10

Pinball Magic Capcom, 1995
I really dig this title got to play it for the first time at APE this year & what a blast! I think I played it more than any other game at the show I love the magnetic wand & the levitating ball on the stage

Fathom Bally, 1981
This was a grail title for me when I first got into pinball & I had to hunt long & hard to obtain a nice one finally got it & while I do enjoy it & think it may be one of the most beautiful pins ever made to look at , it just isn't all that fun to play for me at least it just doesn't compare to the fast & crisp feel of newer more modern pins ..... lots of center drains & keeping multiball alive is a bit of a challenge
7.935/10

Blackwater 100 Bally, 1988
This game may not be for everyone and the music is corny hillbilly but being from W.V.A where the race used to be held I can really identify with it.... I love the playfield design and the chaotic multiball start from the gate and the corresponding "hole shot" skill shot are pure Nordman genius it really emulates the chaos that was the start of that long ago motorcycle race / a fun game to play once you get into it ....quite challenging
