Quoted from maddog14:Well, here is the thing about ratings. The condition of the machine greatly affects the players perception.
I fully plan on changing my rating of MM to a more positive one. The first time I played MM it was a piece of crap. My rating reflected that.
The second time I played MM it was pretty darned cool. Because the machine was in great playable shape.
There probably needs to be a rating added to the condition of the machine you played that you are basing your rating on.
That is one of the best comments I have heard lately. Condition of pin does greatly influence your ratings. In fact, if you were to take a HUO or restored game of any title and rate it, and then compare it back to ratings you did on same title at an earlier date, I guarantee you would rate the latter significantly higher.
