    Even though I was visiting with family and friends I was determined to play some pinball. Played some machines I have never played plus MM so it was an awesome trip in my book.

    Gameworks in Schaumburg

    Ironman - this is my new personal fav. I had a blast playing this and didn't want to stop!
    Transformers - not as fun as I thought it would be.
    24 - could not get into this game at all.
    Soprano's - they put this out when another machine went down. Fresh from the shop I was the first to play it. I have to say I liked it a lot. However I thought it was a 1990's game and I was shocked to learn it came out in 2005.

    Also went to a dive bar nearby because I heard they had a MM. Sure enough they did. Poor baby was dirty and run down....if I could have snuck it out while no one was looking I would have just to clean it. Game play was ok, can't say it's one of my favs. The shots are all pretty simple. I actually got bored by the second ball and let my friends play the rest.

    All in all a good time. Can't wait for my next pin-cation!

    Quoted from absocountry2:

    Did you add the pin locations to this site?

    I think they are already on here, but I will double check and add my reviews of the machines as well.

    My addiction to pinball grows daily, I've started a pinball fund for the next purchase and the next two vacations are pin-cations! Can't wait!

    Quoted from gweempose:

    Have you been to the Pinball Hall of Fame in Vegas yet? Everyone new to the hobby should make the pilgrimage.

    Ha! That's pin-cation #1....#2 will either be to Pinballz Arcade in Texas or maybe Pinfest.
