    Quoted from grantopia:

    I don't mind deep rules at all as long as the game gives me some idea of what the hell is going on. The best (worst) example I can think of this is Willy Wonka. I love how the game shoots but everything is lit up, with all of the colors, all of the time. Sometimes I'm hitting shots and basically scoring nothing and sometimes I'm demolishing the game, but I couldn't tell you why or how I'm doing it. That is a huge turn off for me. TWD is one of my favorites and the opposite situation. There is a ton going on in the game, but it presents most of it in a way where you at least understand what you want to try and shoot for.

    That's basically my problem too. I can have a 30 minute long game on my brother's AIQ premium, feel like I'm hitting shots, getting combos, multiballs, etc... but then end up with a score of like 60 million. I just don't get it.

    Quoted from jawjaw:

    A lot of Stern games are like that. It ends up where you have to play a certain strategy to get a competitive score. This forces you to play a certain way and I just don't find that fun in most cases.

    Yeah, that is the #1 reason I sold my Dialed In after only a few months.
