I give this thread a 1.2
Opinions are not factual, they are just a point of view. Plus what people like in a pin is subjective to personal taste anyways. Some people like faster flow, others like more controlled, longer play type games.
The big problem is people get emotionally tied up into these pins because they are big purchases. Anybody that has 8k tied up into anything, not just a pinball machine, is going to have a hard time hearing people criticize it, or not like it.
