Its all fake except fox, so take your pic. I like to watch Rachel Madcow get all upset and pout and cry, shes the best.

Faux news is the best/ By the way, does it get damp in your underground bunker?

No its awesome, got pinball machines and everything down there, come on over!

Just to circle back around a little I think the code is actually much better then I originally thought. I just didn't know how some things worked. The code is super unique and there is a lot there already. Definitely needs some polish and a few additions but it only a few steps behind IMDN at launch.

If that is true then you got yourself one heck of a game in Deadpool. Hope you are enjoying it.

Just as far as completeness of code. They are extremely different games. Certainly not a bad thing.

What would you say are the top 3 games in your collection?

I’ll answer for him:

AC/DC
Eight ball deluxe
Embryon

Haha, pretty darn close.

My favorite at any current moment is always different, but if I could only own 3 it would be
AC/DC
Flash Gordon
Embryon

My wife's would be
MM
SS
TNA

So would mine.

Only if they get to insist we get together and they say 1 billion words while we quietly enjoy beer and play pinball.

Wouldn’t be possible with mine. She’d be insistent on kicking your ass in pinball. Haha

Depending on how many beers I have it might not be too hard. And if I haven't had that much and she stomps my ass anyway I'll make sure to say I drank a lot earlier in the day.....

I kinda thought IMDN and MET would be in there? Then maybe MM or AFM...

4 great games. IMDN and Met are great, I enjoy both a lot but both code wise give me a similar feeling experience. IMDN shoots great, met is loaded with features. AFM and MM are great to play around on and I enjoy both but honestly dont play either a lot. After being king of the realm and ruling the universe a few times the replay value isn't there compared to modern sterns or classic b/w games for me. We are nit picking awesome games at this point though.

You would.

You’re blinded by the journey to destroying the Death Star. I don’t blame you.

That’s the greatest pinball experience since destroy the ring....................

That's because it's a badass game with killer code that way too many people decided it sucked before even playing it. I still love mine, it really has a lot to offer and if you learn the multipliers and really focus on maximizing everything it creates a completely new and different pinball experience.

Just got my new DP pro today. I can definitely appreciate Zach and Greg's review on this one. While mine is a bit "clunky" I feel that only a few adjustments will be needed to make that right katana lock shot smooth as butter (I managed to hit it roughly 40% of the time). The orbit is not smooth and yes the inner left lop is really hard to get.

I found the Deadpool voice-over quirky and fun. Didn't bother me one bit. I can see however why people would wish it could be a tad more vulgar but I'm not going to lose any sleep over this.

Out of the entire game the only negative factor I will give it from owning it a few hours is the lack of lighting in the middle of the playfield. The lack of lighting made it hard to see the playfield as the reflection of the backglass was obstructing my view, especially in Disco multiball. I guess there is a right time to give pin stadium lighting a try.

With all that said its a hell of a game and ultra quick. I can tell that mine is an early build (Jul 12th) and had code .81 installed. Updated to 0.85 as soon as i got it.

Zombie Yeti really out done himself on this one. It's a piece of art.

The arrival of this game as completed my trifecta for a while. My buddy John (in picture) approves of the choices. I feel like every game his drastically different. And that's a good thing.

?

Did you buy the Houdini new or used Greg? What about The Munsters, you still getting that also?

I think my Star Wars is Great and I agree on that one.

I have been tempted a couple times on Houdini but I'm still fairly leary on getting one.

Better save my space and $ for Munsters which will be a must have for me, and Elvira also when ever it comes out.

Houdini is def a no go for me (one of the worst) but I need to try star wars again with the new code.... Pro or premium on this one?

I have a Pro and it is really nice. Premium are nice too if you want that loop - kind of reminds me of Nascar though. Everybody has there own preference.

Star Wars in any configuration is fine.

I have a feeling Octoberfest is going to be an even better effort by American Pinball. They probably learned some things from Houdini....

I'm excited for Octoberfest. I like the theme and that was a big issue for me on Houdini with that clip art nonsense. Plus it's layout.

I need to figure out how to get that loop shot on premium star wars

Houdini could have been a masterpiece very easily if it wasnt such a brickfest. The game is beautiful and the modes are really fun also seems like but the shots are just too tight. Some people may like that but most people dont.

Finally put together a good game on DP

Beat both quests and all 3 battles. Using team ups for the battles is key. Trying to save up for a super boom on the quests is key. Also found out that disco have 2 modes on the LE. Starts as a loop combo mode, second mode is the disco multiball that is on the pro. I played Sauron for a while and felt like I did really well but Mr Sinister did not light after I lost my multiball? Sauron is a super hard mode. The only thing I believe I didn't do was play all the lil dp modes so maybe that is why Mr Sinister didn't light? It just restarted with the 3 battles not lit again.

I got the super in ninja multiball. Maybe I was missing something in the lil dp modes as I just ignored them and focused on completing the other stuff. Damn is Sauron tough. Left ramp, right ramp, colossus

I am going to have to probably agree with you. Unless you are a really good player. I watched a little of Bone playing during the stream yesterday late afternoon/early evening. I am probably not a good enough player. I don't like to cradle and shoot. I am more of a flow and shoot fast and reactionary player, playing off what the game gives me vs holding and shooting. Houdini would probably break my heart if I tired to change how I play just to play that particular machine. Everything else about the game looks wonderful, but I think speaking for myself I might be in over my head on Houdini for my style of play.

yeah, Lil Deadpool is a multiball and you need to collect a super jackpot on it too.

The rules seem flat rather than deep. One strategy (which you followed) is to collect everything in one game, including 2x playfield multiplier and then Sinister. The modes and multiballs are intuitive to start. The art package is tight. Most people set the game up steep. In many ways the game is on par with Iron Man.

Do you think the game has legs to last in your collection?

I have only played a few games on it and i actually liked the game and thought it was fun, but ive watched enough video on it to know that i wouldn't like the tight shots in the long run. Its one if the best looking games ive ever seen and it has awesome animations and the game seems to be built pretty well also as i havent heard of that many issues with them.

Im also leary about buying games from new companies because you're going to be screwed if you need parts down the road and they arent around. With that said though, they do seem like a company that is building a good product and they seem like they could be around for awhile.

Way too early to tell. Initially it's really fun but some games get old faster then others. There's plenty of code and overall I like the direction they took on the game. Ask me again in 8 weeks.

That's going to be one of the big questions about the game. Are having 5 major modes enough or is it going to get old fast. I do love how you can setup the modes for success. If I play properly I only need 3-4 shots to beat each of the battle modes. So you can blaze through them.

Some of the code team has been reaching out to early owners and I recommend adding a side mode for colossus, wolverine, and domino. I love the disco modes and katanarama, etc so adding more of that I think could really help the game from getting stale. Maybe the side mode starts after 5 shots to each character? They also need to rework trex so it's more exciting.

After playing it a bit at Sunshine Laundry, I’d love to see them do something similar to how they expanded Star Trek by adding multiple levels to each battle. Another option would be to do something silly and after beating Sauron, you have the option to play zombie-fied versions of the battles again. It’d be kind of like the comic run of Deadpool where he fought undead presidents with super powers.

I have Hopes that Stern at the very least mimics the mode continuation option similar to how they did it in Batman 66 for Deadpool. Defeat the villain or continue the fight for additional scenes and bonus. With that at least they can extend the depth of the modes and somewhat minimize the redundancy. Just a hope...

It took about a year for BM66, SW, and recently GOTG to really flourish.
Fair review for now, but DP has barely shipped with enough code to run the shaker and we already have redundancy talk?

You guys are a tough crowd!

That's what we do best

As long as you're watching. That's all Nielsen cares about. Just like Howard Stern in the old days. The haters were the ones that listened the longest to his show - he didn't care. Ratings are ratings.

They need a few truly secret modes. Ones that have such obscure requirements no one knows what's going on or how they got there for a while. Wouldn't overcome the playfield clunk, but it would add an element of exploration and adventure that the current framework does not have.

I don't really watch Rachel Madcow Vireland lol. Mostly see clips of her meltdowns on Twitter and stuff. I haven't watched anything other than fox except maybe for a minute here or there. I don't watch much tv of any kind anymore truthfully. I bet i dont watch 5 hours a month of tv probably, dont have the time.

Yes Sir, i enjoy it sooo much! Words can't describe how much that i enjoy it, its orgasmic.

This baby streams Monday -Friday!
How can I get you into this beauty of a stream more often!

Side note, ZMeny I’ll be at your expo seminar if you need a Vanna white for slide switching.
