Quoted from jbp8653:

Why doesn't AC/DC Pro get any love?

I give it tons of love. It is one of my favorite games right now. But that's because I'm a masochist.

Overall, I'm a Pro guy. Not because I'm poor, but because I see them as the best value. I can afford the Premium/LE, but I don't see good value in it. When I had 8k tied up in a single game, it just didn't feel right. Plus I usually enjoy the play on the Pro better. GOT was a classic example, the Pro was the better version. I hated the ball being lost under an upper playfield, so I bought the Pro. When I bought my Tron the LE was already 7k, which was a lot 5 years ago, so I went Pro. The only Premium I'm considering is the AC/DC VE. I already have the Pro VE, but I think they might be able to exist together... but I'd need to sell something for space, and it would need to be a game I like. So that probably won't happen unless I buy a bigger house.

Quoted from IdahoRealtor:

Then you must also hate Whitewater, WOZ, BK2000 and dozens of others.

WOZ was the game I owned when I started getting a dislike of upper playfields. They block sight of the ball for too long. So yes, I've never owned Whitewater or BK2K, and wouldn't specifically because of that issue.

And to be very specific, on WOZ I didn't mind the left one that much, but the right one blocking sight of the the ball as it came down from the lanes or orbit to the upper right flipper. It's pinball... so am I wrong for wanting to see the f'in pinball?

Quoted from dsmoke1986:

WOZ has a horrible upper playfield, off the plunge the ball is blocked, I hated that also...Don't let that game hinder your thoughts on upper playfields; some are done very well!!

Which ones? It’s not that just owning WOZ formed that opinion, it’s been quite a few games. Outside of Devil Riders, I can’t name one I like. And even that was just a passing fancy. Oh, and I don’t count Black Hole, because that’s a different animal that I like.
