Ok, not trying to be a dick (seriously). And I'm a bigger acdc fan than most people who own this machine, but honestly I'm not seeing how this game is as awesome as everyone says.

Thoughts?

(Again, this isn't a hate thread!)

So I've been busy as hell lately but wow I came back and this thread is off the chain! I'm going to read through all the replies, because

1) I DO appreciate a game with a (FUN) deep ruleset, and my issue could be just that I don't understand it; and
2) I'm not a troll, I honestly wanted to get people's input on this game

I'll be back for another response once I can digest the replies...!

Well, like I mentioned in a previous post, work got stupid busy so not a lot of time to play around on the internet (unfortunately!), but I played in an establishment where the pins are WELL taken care of. Volume was not ridiculous, but high enough... I believe it was the pro version (honestly not sure)? But what I am sure about is that I did not find the game itself that great. Music and subwoofers alone don't really mean anything to me if I'm not connecting with the game play. And yes, lots of fools are just going to comment on what a shitty player I must be in that case (u mad? lol). However, I am definitely turned on by a deep (and FUN, hast to be FUN, and not solely about the grind etc) rule set, and after I eventually get through all the comments and pointers here I'll be looking forward to giving this game another chance.

So, in short...no, I'm not a troll (sorry!), and centerflank, instead of posting you a super funny "fuck you" middle finger GIF, I'll just bask in the pride of you earning your 12 million plus pinside points. (no seriously, fuck you right back if you're just going to be a dick like that...)

Cheers!

P.S. awesome I say FU back to someone who said FU to me with NO provocation and I'm the one getting neg banged. <3 pinside fans. I'm a person just like you who would most likely also say "fuck you too" to someone who said "fuck you" for, quite frankly, a pretty stupid reason.

No. You're just a dick is all. Calling you out doesn't make me mad. It makes me right. Enjoy those points.

(Improvement the pic though...)

It is indeed that machine. I'd love to take you up on that offer sometime! I did not realize that the premium/LE is a more forgiving game. But honestly, I could forgive the difficulty. The BSD at that same location is PUNISHING but I absolutely love it. Makes the good games that much more rewarding!

And by the way, you keep your games in impeccable condition and I really appreciate that!

On a side note, I guess it may not have been clear that I was just putting a feeler out there to see if anybody felt the same way or if there were any tips for someone not experienced on the game. Some of the other people here will respond however they feel like regardless of this, I guess.

Cheers.

I have played at least 30 games on that Ripley's and I actually am warming up to that game. I'm not really into the theme, but it does have some solid, fun gameplay. One of the gaping holes in my collection is a Pat Lawlor pin. (One day).

And the BSD, man, I was legit angry the first few plays, but something about it had me coming back. That game is so damn rewarding when you actually get a decent game going.

Cheers!
