Fish Tales is awesome. HSll is pretty cool but I vastly prefer the gameplay on FT. Yes I own it!

Quoted from Pintucky:

After owning many pins over the years, FT is gonna stay!
After 'studying' this game, I am beginning to believe it is one of the best conceptual games ever made. Such a FULL package!
So many unique and fun aspects of it: Loading the reel, hitting the multipliers in the upper rollover lanes, the two ramp modes, trying to get a ball into the Caster's Club during multi-ball, shooting for Monster Fish, hitting the ball at the center of the boat ramp, all those choices that get randomly selected as it scrolls up and down during Depth Finder, the always enjoyable brief respite from playing and then firing the torpedoes in the video mode, the topper with the fish flopping, the music (not only is the so-called country music very well done, but the end of game music for putting in your initials that sounds like calypso is just beautiful! I just stand and listen to that until it fully plays out.), the Extra Ball target that is SO hard to hit, snappy flippers . . . . I am amazed at how many 'things' this pin was designed to do.
I actually like it over my LOTR LE, WOZ LE, TSPP, and MMr.

A perfect summary of a perfect game. I can't think of one thing on FT that feels out of place, awkward, unfinished etc. and that calypso music makes me dance every time.

The true measure is the 100M SJP. It feels deserved as opposed to unbalanced. It's hella dangerous and shot under pressure. It's RAD!
