I might be in the minority here but there is something about 90's Williams pins that all others just don't stack up. That includes modern day Stern pins. Family Guy the pinball machine is nothing special. Really over priced because of license only. The game is a shallow game that just leaves you feeling empty. Dirty Harry on the other hand is one of the most underrated pinball machines. I'll never let mine go.....I've beat it several times but it just never gets old. It's challenging too the outlanes are brutal. I'd put Dirty Harry up there with a game like Bram Stoker's Dracula in the same regard that the game keeps you coming back for more. Sometimes you kick it's ass but most of the time it kicks your ass. So when you get a great score on it it's really satisfying.

Quoted from PW79:

FGY shallow?
I dunno man. It's purdy deep I think
Beer can modes, TV modes, Stewie MB & quite a few side missions plus a wizard mode I haven't reached in 7-8 years of ownership.
The game is certainly love it or hate it from what I gather. I love it, own it, etc.

Modern Day Stern pins just are ok. Yup...I said it. Ask any experienced pinball player. You play an old Williams game 1990's and compare that to a modern day Stern. The old Williams games are just better playing pinball machines. There's really no comparison. People always say well the rules for the old Williams pins are simple.....they don't have a deep rule set. I don't care....they are challenging, well made enjoyable pinball machines and yes they are better than modern day Stern pins.
