Quoted from Chicoman:Iron Maiden shouldn't be anywhere near Top 50 that is a joke! Walking Dead maybe Top 50. The rest you can make a case for.
Neither were in the list...fyi.
Quoted from o-din:Yeah, it does seem like this guy has a hard-on for this opinionated blog going way back.

So it's wrong to have an opinion? Who wants to read stuff from someone without one? Not me...
Quoted from KozMckPinball:This article has been on-line for years and the IJ comment has been there for years. Why argue about a stale old on-line article that was just updated to put SM on there to get views?
The lists have been entirely updated...and new content was added. Left what still is true...IJ still is a boring, but gorgeous & well made turd of a game.
Quoted from Billy16:No way can this list be taken seriously with Supreme not being included.
Got me there...good one!
Quoted from rai:Woz should be there it that’s just my opinion, it seems groundbreaking.
Groundbreaking...but not fun. Funhouse is also groundbreaking and tons of fun and did not make the list. Black Knight as well...
Agree it does not belong...but using Pinside & IPDB as part of the calculation gets some games like this that are not worthy. It is nowhere near in my personal top ten or even top 100.
Quoted from tamoore:It's clumsy, I know.
"What are the Top Ten Modern Pinball Machines of All-Time?"
Top ten modern.....of all time.
Modern = a less geeky way to say solid state.
Quoted from JY64:LOL AC/DC came out 2 yr before WOZ yet got kicked off the list?
Was not in the IPDB top 25.
Quoted from tamoore:His real list from the article at its conclusion:
In order.
Twilight Zone
The Addams Family
Medieval Madness
Monster Bash
Star Trek: The Next Generation
Attack from Mars
White Water
Scared Stiff
Cirqus Voltaire
Spider-Man
Thanks for stealing my thunder!
Quoted from dung:Lol Iron Maiden is number 3? Dialed in is number 8? Sorry but please come back when the hype train wears off and then we can talk.
Neither made it in the list...keep reading.
Quoted from o-din:And that's what I gave you. My opinion.
Ok got me there!
When I write about Vanilla ice-cream, I will send you a PM to the link!
Quoted from freakandgeek:Ok got me there!
Quoted from o-din:So, is this your blogspot, and you are just linking it here? If so, talk bout shameless self promotion.
Yes totally shameless...
It is one the best articles about the top pinball machines on the web. Forgive me for sharing!
Quoted from tamoore:I was tired of people not reading your whole article.
Srry for stealing ur clicks.
No problemo
And the nerve to share it on a random website about pinball!!!
Quoted from freakandgeek:Yes totally shameless...
It is one the best articles about the top pinball machines on the web. Forgive me for sharing!
Quoted from dts:I'm reading this thread thinking, who cares what other people think? One guy posted IMDN sucks but rates Kiss a top game...
Good point...I guess the answer is people new to the hobby who want to know what games they should consider getting first. But even at my advanced age...I look at opinions of people who like games I like. This is helpful for old games that are hard to track down in person.
Newer games may have more popularity on location maybe...but not collectability.
I have been trying to sell or trade my TWD Premium for weeks now...
Pretty sure if I listed my Creature, BSD, or WhiteWater they would move within a day or two.
Quoted from pinballaddicted:1. Twilight Zone
2. The Addams Family
3. Medieval Madness
4. Monster Bash
5. Star Trek: The Next Generation
6. Attack from Mars
7. White Water
9. Scared Stiff
9. Cirqus Voltaire
10 Spider-Man
All I see here is people with old games doing their best to keep the value up of their old games. They are all great games in their own right, the new stuff is really giving them a run for their money.
We have TAF, MM and AFM. While they are great to have and play, no way are those games as good as ACDC, MET or TWD. I am a B/W man and love them, however all the new games are incredible. Will they stand the test of time? I think they will and in time overtake all the old B/W s for popularity.
I may have an ego...but not related to anything I do in pinball. Thanks for the negativity and small mindedness. What happened to "sharing is caring?"
Quoted from dung:Nope, its a fluff list that you posted to stroke your ego. If your writing was that great others would post it for you.
My top 3 is Lebron, Magic, MJ in that order...not that you asked. Haha.
Quoted from rai:Agreed on Woz, DI still needs some code work, I can’t vote for a game that’s incomplete.
Woz (to me) still has an edge over DI.
It’s so hard to pick just 10 pins without leaving some great ones off.
Just think of top10 baseball players list you’d have to leave off Shaq, Kobie and Dr. J. Not to mention Keven Durant.
