SST is an amazing game! Possibly the most underrated DMD still.
3rd flipper is absolutely great and I can't believe how many people are complaining about it. Tells me that they obviously have very little time on SST. Little flipper is great for catching it out of scoop, shooting the saucer on the left, grabbing double kills in specific ways, back handing right ramp, and on the fly shots to warrior bug. Seriously, the little 3rd flipper is genius and implemented very well.
SST is also a reasonably deep game, lots of multiballs but you have to earn most of them and the flow is spectacular.
SST is seriously a wonderful game!
