Put me in the "I'm never selling" category.

It's a brutal, cruel, vicious game...but I never feel like it rips me off. When I lose a ball, it's either standard pinball or frankly my fault. It reminds me of another favorite game of mine, Whirlwind, in that respect. It pummels you and pummels you and pummels you.

But when you get a great game on it, ain't no better feeling in the world.

And no, I never get tired of posting this picture.

Also should add that it would compliment your LOTR VERY nicely. One will give you games that last an hour, one will give you games that last 5 minutes - if you are playing well! Good to have that type of variety.

Quoted from pinnyheadhead:

How did you do that? That score. How?

Three ball, outlines a bit narrow, everything else standard settings I believe. Hit Do or Die Double Scoring (for the first time ever) and straight into Jericho, which I beat (for the first time ever). That alone was worth 100,000,000 points.

I've never gotten close to it since that one magical game. But trust me, I just keep trying!

Awesome! I knew there was no way I was king of the hill on this game 'round these parts! LOL

Quoted from ZenTron:

3 Balls setup like PAPA, i doubt you could get 274mil after 1000 games.

Don't they open the outlanes completely and set tilt to like zero warning? I doubt I could get to 2 million.

My machine is set up at factory settings save for the outlanes; I view that as how it should be played.

In short; I don't play in tournaments, I play for fun.

Quoted from swampfire:

Interesting that the main response is "Got boring fast". I wonder if they are referring to the rules or the game play? IM isn't deep, but I've never felt bored playing it. Mine is set up fast and hard, though. I can see a slow-playing IM being pretty boring.
BTW, you can make the ramps much faster with Plexus:

I'm afraid to try this on my playfield, but I imagine it would work well there too.

I used Plexus on my Avengers, and it made the infamous Black Widow shot lightning fast. Very cool stuff!

Finally had my break out game today.

Wow! Great score!!!

Was just legit was one shot away from do or die into Jericho and choked. I screamed and then punched the wall.

THAT is why I love this game.
