HSII - Not as good as HS for the long term. Full of bricks and lame music. Horrible video mode. Ugly backglass. Add it to the long list of b tile hoarding, t2, dm etc. B-title paradise. Mullet not included.

FT - Add this one to the bottom of the redneck collection. Great if you own a cabin in the woods. Real fishing is better.

BSD - Adjustable for a novice, and still brutal for an expert. Long term ownership potential. Overall great audio, excellent video mode. Playfield art is ugly, but gameplay and audio make up for it. One of the best horror pins, and it won't break the bank. This one wins by a mile.

BOP - OK in a large collection. I think you need pb to make it work. The gag ball effect has a high creep factor. If women see this in your basement, they will run for the hills. Robot cheesy and plays dated. Buy this one when you're bored.

TFTC - Doesn't come close to the show. This one is straight up ghetto. Add this to the DE collection, and you have a poor mans dream. It like driving a camero and wishing for vette. What radio shack is to electronics, DE is to pinball. This game is a joke, just like most DE's. Deserves to be 6 ft under.

R&B - Not bad if you're looking for a cartoon theme or love camel toe. It's got cool features. The blue version is ugly as hell. I'm ready to dump mine anyday now. I'd add this one to the bottom of the list. Works ok with a funhouse combo.

WSC - OK if you're into "cute and cuddly". Up there with NGG and WH20. Great for kids, the wife and grandpa. Wouldn't touch this one with a 10 ft pole. I can't see anyone screaming "goal" after picking this one up.

DW - Great game but, hearing the robot will make you want to beat the game with a sledge hammer. Wear ear plugs if you buy this one. PB is a better option.

Flint - Not bad with the alternative translite. OK game in a large collection. The theme music will drive you nuts. I can see throwing this in the rockpile after 6 months.
