I like the third flipper in Whirlwind and WH20. Those third flipper jackpots are the best!!

Quoted from QuarterGrabber:

I would say for modern games Tron and Spider-Man. I wouldn't even consider stern ST as it is a direct duplicate of SM and SM came first.
For older games I really like the third flipper on HS, HS2 and DW.

I own SM and had Star Trek in my house for a little over a month.

The warp ramp does NOT feel like the Venom ramp. The warp ramp return is one of the most badass in any game I have played. It was easily my favorite shot in ST. One of my favorite shots period!

Quoted from QuarterGrabber:

Well good for you. I still feel they are very similar shots. Different strokes

Yeah, it is good for me.

I like SM more as a pin but hitting the warp ramp repeatedly is an awesome rush.Not just hitting the shot but the return is part of the feel, IMO.

Just like TAF and WW. Many people claim that they feel the same but I like the left ramp in WW way more. It feels way more like a mirror of Tron, which is also awesome.
