Quoted from akm:

I've yet to play WOZ, but AC\DC is pretty damn awesome.

Get up to Town Hall and play some WOZ.
TOPS running on ACDC and WPT.

I like 90's style games as much as the next guy and have played many of them thousands of times each.

ACDC is a great example of a fun 90's style game and the rules are spectacular. Lyman certainly did not disappoint on this title.

That said, part of the pinball experience that I have always enjoyed is seeing what the design team can put out that has not been done before. I really enjoyed it when games went to dot matrix from alphanumeric, when the rules became much deeper in the early 90's, when designers get creative with the way the ball interacts with the mechs, etc.

WOZ is not more of the same that we have seen for years and years. The LCD and playfield lights set it apart. The design team did not play it safe and went all out with two miniplayfieds, a huge number of coils and magnets, five flippers, clearcoat all over the place, headphone jack, line out jack, stereo, topper, very solid cabinet, etc.
And to top it off creative KEF rules - outlane games and crystal ball modes are awesome. Rollovers galore. WMS parts and Granner music are a nice bonus as well.
$6500+ is a lot to pay for a pin, but with WOZ, you can see where it went to.

For those in the DC area, go to Town Hall Liquors in College Park and play ACDC premium and WOZLE side by side.
