    I've only played two of the four. I prefer Eight Ball Deluxe for the play, but like the art package on Centaur.

    #4 12 years ago

    Based on order of preference of what I'd like to have if I were looking for Ballys....

    Centaur
    EBD
    Medusa
    Fathom

    #5 12 years ago

    Ranked in order of ......?

    My personal preference:

    1 - Fathom
    2 - Centaur
    3 - Medusa
    4 - Eight Ball Deluxe

    #6 12 years ago

    EBD
    Fathom
    Centaur
    Medusa

    #7 12 years ago

    Fathom and EBD are kind of in a lock in terms of gameplay, but Fathom's theme beats out EBD around my house. Centaur is pretty good playwise. I'm not a fan of the black and white thing & that biker is one of the ugliest things this side of Grand Lizard. As I said on RGP, Medusa & I last about 30 seconds in the sack together. What a tough game!

    That's right Phoebe, I'm here also. And it looks like my Karma rating is kicking your ass!

    #11 12 years ago

    By the way. My joke comment to Phoebe aside, can someone explain how the Karma points work?
    Thanks, I've been hesitant to ask...

    #12 12 years ago

    Hey Kim, nice to see you here.

    Someone will probably jump in with the details, but you get Karma for writing reviews, updating your profile. Everytime you post you get some Karma too.

    As for your poll:

    Centaur
    Fathom
    EBD
    Medusa

    #13 12 years ago

    Fathom
    Centaur
    Medusa
    EBD

    Here's the official writeup on how Karma works...

    As for the topic, I've only played Fathom and Centaur so I can't really render an opinion.

    One problem with opening ALL of the threads that you are interested in and then one by one answering them is sometimes your comments are obsolete. I see that Jarjar already had that link. I am just commenting on it, rather than editing....that way I get MORE Karma!

    Well I own three of them, and I've never played Medusa, so my personal preferences are:

    Centaur
    EBD
    Fathom
    Medusa.

    EBD is a sleeper hit that just seems to flow when you get a good game going. That's why I have it ranked high.

    #24 12 years ago

    I've got to play more pins from this era.

    #25 12 years ago

    I only own one of these, the Eight Ball Deluxe. Got up to 848,000 last night, standard three ball game, I have yet to crack a million on this machine, but I haven't messed with the CPU to make it a five ball game either. Nice thing about all the machines on this list is they all have seven digit score..

    1. Fathom
    2. Centaur
    3. EBD
    4. Medusa

    #26 12 years ago

    The best game out of the four in my opinion has to be Eight Ball Deluxe.

    #27 12 years ago
    Quoted from CrazyFliprFingrs:

    1. Fathom
    2. Centaur
    3. EBD
    4. Medusa

    Agree but I have limited play on all. Welcome Kim!!
