Quoted from CaptainNeo:

I disagree. Ask people the best sega and 70% will say Batman Forever. Which I love Batman Forever. But I also like Starship Troopers a lot. But I also know SST is a bottom feeder. I accept it and embrace it. Doesn't matter to me if it's a bottom feeder or flagship. But I have to give credit to where it's due, and that helm belongs to Batman Forever. Goldeneye is an alright game, but I think what hurts its popularity, is the fact that not many people have ever played one.

What about Apollo 13 in that bunch? Have never played one, but it was the flavour of the month for Sega machines with the Aussie hobbyists recently.

I was fixing up a Batman Forever for a friend for a few months and while I noted it had merit gamewise, the theme just didn't do much for me and I found the sound clips a bit irritating.

As for Guns n Roses, love my pinball and looking forward to seeing them live one day. Whoever is in the band.

A13 isn't horrible, but it isnt' great either. The 13 ball multiball is just a shit mess. Not enough playfield room to really do anything with it.

Yeah, I often wondered whether that was overkill or not. Haha

It's Goldeneye for Sega.

Sorry guys it's Twister. Who cares if Bill Paxton says "everybody under ground now" ...it is still Bill Paxton, Helen Hunt, Philip Seymour Hoffman and an awesome layout designed by John Borg with the most exciting multiball start in all of pinball and themed after an awsome movie with decent music by Van Hagar. Sorry guys, it's Twister.

If they reunite they better include Alder. And Axl sounds AWFUL. His fat arse can't even move around stage and sing without sounding out of breath.

Been listening to the Spaghetti Incident quite a bit lately...New Rose, Down on the Farm, and Human Being (2,3,4) still sound razor-sharp. Great album.
Awesome pics JamMaster !

Surely Attitude gets a mention with your profile pic!?

I'm comfortable in admitting I think since i don't have you is a pretty awesome song.

I have a GnR - my fave pin.
I put in a Pinsound just to change the songs and use real album songs for the music. So far I like it and think it's an improvement.

Poor Steven Adler - what a mess. Probably won't make the cut and be on the reunion tour if it happens. Plus Matt Sorum is a way better drummer.

I'm kinda weird that way--I dont like anybody's Fits covers. Glenn or nobody. But A for effort Axl.

But you're right about Since I Dont Have You....Axl kills that one....back when he could hit 17 different vocal registers.

The good news for Steven is that once it's over, they can tell him he *was* a part of it, and he'd be telling stories about how great it was for years after.

Quoted from GoodManners:

Matt's technically a better drummer, sure, but to some his playing comes off as mechanical, giving him his 'drum machine' rep. I do like his live playing.

I'm working the instrumental demos of Civil War and Locomotive (Adler on drums) into my PinSound mix for GNR, and it makes you wonder what UYI would have sounded like if Steven could've kept it together.

If I have to choose between alliteration and actual facts, I'm going with alliteration...

Well this drummer doesn't think so. Matt's drumming might have been a little more complex on the GNR album's, but Adler's had so much more feel and groove. It just worked perfectly for what the band was doing. Plus he was a lot more fun than Matt.

More like:
Welcome to McDonalds!
We got shakes and Fries
We got quarter pounders, and we got apple pies
Jus bring yourself a child and have yourself a ball
Look at all the pictures, of Ronald on the wall
At McDonalds, Welcome to McDonalds
Would you like a happy muh muh muh muh muh muh meal, meal

I'm still crying I laughed so hard at this!

Hey Blackjacker I put Civil War and Locomotive in my GnR pin too. Lol

I like how Adler reps Eddie Trunk's "That Metal Show"....
