I swung by Giga-bites tonight and dropped a few dollars in the pins. Great playing machines. My first time on Star Wars Pro. I had played a dozen or so games on an LE before, and I think I actually prefer the Pro. I take it this location may not be seeing much play though? I got GC with a fairly lousy 650ish mil. Managed to finish light saber duel that game too, fun mode.

Oh, and I think you may have a trough opto issue on GOT, I had a ball drain and not register for a couple minutes. I tilted (gently, LOL) and was about to give up, though it finally woke up and played ok for a couple more games afterwards...

For anyone else in the area, there is also Suburban Tap bar/grill 10 minutes or so away, that currently has a Kiss Pro - if you want a nicer place to get dinner and some beers after playing at Giga-bites.

Quoted from GrimDog:

Giga has beers

Yeah, it just isn't as nice a place to eat and drink as a full bar and grill. But obviously that isn't the main purpose at Giga-bites.

Went by MPB tonight with my brother, dropped at least $25 in the pins and had a blast. What a great set of well playing pins. Only issue we noticed was the orb drop target seems to be disabled/is holding a ball at all times on GOTG.

Anyway, loved the venue and will be back soon.

Oh, and the whole night we were noticing we couldn't hear the pins, especially Iron Maiden - literally on my final 2 bucks we realized you had external volume controls in the usual tournament button locations. I cursed rather loudly, kicked up the volume to likely obnoxious levels and enjoyed one of the greatest single games of pinball I've ever experienced (fun wise, not score...). I've been reluctant to get one due to lack of toys and seemingly not THAT much depth, but damn I'm going to be hard pressed not to get an IMDN now, as a fan of the music. Dammit...

I'd lose GB in favor of MMr, but that is just because of personal bias. For all I know it is a great earner...

Definitely will be stopping by again to play DPLE and/or MMr, hell, I'm dying to play that X-men and MB too, just missed them last time.

I gotta start making the drive down more often.
