Wow very informative thank you for that....I've had EBD for a few years now but just picked up a fully restored Fathom and waiting on a fully restored Frontier which should be another week away. I thought EBD was my favorite but Fathom is another level above imo. Let's see how Frontier fits in with these other nearly if not perfect machines. Yes I love WH20 and AFM but have some friends over and turn the jukebox on. Non pinheads will almost always turn to the simple games which can be understood very quickly and you don't need the music off to enjoy them as long as you can hear the games a little above the music just like the arcades were back in the day! It's pinball perfection and sometimes simple is better and less is more. 1980 & 81 were great years but 81 was the pinnacle.

Quoted from Pmaino:

Eightball deluxe all day long!
Fathom would be second for sure.

But Pete, you haven't even made it over to play Fathom yet ? Don't worry you'll see! Lol

Mike have you unpacked Fathom yet or still waiting to open it in Florida?

Fathom is unpacked and beautiful. We were in contract for a house in Naples Florida when hurricane Irma damaged the house. We've now decided to stay in NY

Quoted from Tuna_Delight:

I'm in the same boat as far as my EBD and Fathom as you know Mike, but I'm not ready to coronate the latter as the new king yet.
EBD still the champ for me with Fathom a very close 2nd. Centaur is my third choice.

Hey Tim yea I'm sold on Fathom, don't think it's just a honeymoon phase either. More ways to score setting up MB's with the two inline traps, light spinner target which doubles as extra ball with 10 seconds to hit it, awesome! Easy on the eyes as well but EBD no slouch, it's close.
