I played ST for the first time this weekend at expo. Like the op, not a big Star Trek fan but the pin was lit up so well and looked so inviting. First game without knowing how to play, I was hitting shots, ripping through the modes, and getting multiball. There are so many shots and such a great flow without being punished for bad shots. I played a lot of other pins for the first time including all the latest Sterns but ST was the best by a mile. I thought I would be into the older B/W pins but kept coming back to ST. It was never left unplayed. I always had to wait to play and someone always was waiting when I played. That was not the case with any other new Stern except TWD because it was so new. I just might have to get a ST pro...
