    your tron prices are wrong. I could have gotten an LE for $5400 when it was released.

    My NIB LOTR was 3400 in 2007, shipped from the factory to my door.

    nobody pays MSRP. those are fabricated prices to try and inflate value

    gotcha. i wonder what LOTR was MSRP'd for in 2007? compared to what I paid shipped.

    Quoted from nicoy3k:

    2007 was 14 years ago. How much were pins in 1993 compared to 2007?

    they were like $200 cheaper. Prices didn't go up much from 1993 to 2007. Only big price spikes are from the past 12 years.

    Pinball is apparently up there with toilet paper.

    some machines can be considered toilet paper

    Quoted from VALIS666:

    A statement like that of course makes me check out your ratings, and I'm glad I did. Stargate out of this world with a flawless 10.0. Fish Tales on the bottom of the lake at 1.0. Indiana Jones 3.69, but Transformers 8.7. Seems a bit... extreme, but credit for being unique!

    Yup. Actually FT isn't at the bottom. That would be SF 2 and Xfiles. Stargate is a phenomenal game. One of the few that i still don't own , that i want back.

    Shit tales I got sick of back in the early 90's because it was at a bar that wouldn't card us. So we could play it a lot. And they never changed it out. Not a fan of the theme or music in the first place, but was a place we could actually play. So got real sick of it. The game isn't as horrible as it is for me.

    There I adjusted my ratings a little from those from years ago. it's laughable how the top 100 are all new games out. Games that havn't stood the test of time shouldn't even be in the top 100 until they have proved themselves for at least a year.

    it's actually JJPs fault. He's the one that raised prices for NIB so high in the first place.
