This guy made some Real Pinball Games that weren't an average cookie cutter design. Figured I'd start a poll on what's your favorite.
Mine is BSD. Can't play it enough due to the dark theme, stackable multi ball, mist, sounds and harsh out-lanes.
I'm trying to like DH more, but can't see why yet.
What do you think? Couldn't fit all in poll, but what are some exceptions?

#5 7 years ago

Yeah, I was going to put Pinot, but wanted space in the poll for DW and Junkyard.

#9 7 years ago
Quoted from Jimmyd044:

I voted Junkyard but I also enjoy playing Jackbot and Who Dunnit

I thought about who dunnit, but Dwight Sullivan did a lot with that tittle and there was only so much poll space.

#18 7 years ago
Quoted from TopMoose:

So many undisputed classics. Space Shuttle saved the pinball industry for a while and Jungle Lord, Fire and Jack-Bot are all great players. But I adore my Junk Yard!

Junk yard is so junky, but the humor along with the clutter makes this such an interesting design.

Quoted from CrazyLevi:

Fire Is one of the worst playfield layouts of the modern era.

Yes, but the art and bell ring (or is it a ding, wish it was louder) really pulls it together for a novice player. It is pretty and the limited one has cool fire effects.

I got to play Orbitor 1 once and received a headache. That's the worst playfield ever.

Quoted from TopMoose:

Junky? I think you mean it has a lot of character.

Every time I walk away from it there is something new for me to see and remember. Like the devil or toaster or Vw bus. Its like one of those triped out comercials that are so crazy/junky it gets you to think about it 15 min later.

Example, the bees in the wendys commercial or a bar with the crazy/junky shelf of stuff from owner and customers. All and all it does build character.

Quoted from RCA1:

Barracora, Pinbot, Time Warp, Space Station...........................

All good ones... wish there was more space in poll. Though, I do have a hard time with the slings in space station, but I just tell myself to play better.

Quoted from InfiniteLives:

Pin•bot
How is that not on the poll
It's always been Pin•Bot

Quoted from NimblePin:

Because the OP wants to give us "just the tip", instead of the massive base that Barry Oursler is known for.

*Python Anghelo did a lot with the Pinbot, Jackbot and Machine/Bride series and I wanted to include it like the Comet series in the poll, but Ousler did not work on Bride so I left it out of the poll. It was thought of when I was putting the poll together.

Yeah, I guess the poll is "just the tip" of Oursler work. All his playfields are so unique and I wanted to get a sense of what others thought of them.
