I don't usually participate in polls..but this is life or death.

Quoted from Rezdog:

Always been too embarrassed to ask but can someone please identify what game ACDC is : )

Alice Cooper and the Devils Cave. Great game.

Quoted from Jediturtle:

No. They like H78 because they are horror movie fans. H78 is commonly used to clarify since there are three different movies in the franchise all simply named "Halloween". That isn't a problem for the pinball. Now if next year they give us one based on the Rob Zombie remake, then H78 would make sense.

I'm a horror fan and I've never used that ever. I refer to Halloween, and that other shit version

Quoted from TheLaw:

It's not, and it never has been. Just like Howard Hawks name isn't the title of his movies; "above the title."

Actually....

There might be multiple versions out there from different releases...

Quoted from Jediturtle:

LOL...fair point. Though I don't hate the others.
I don't care too much either way, but to me HWN is the most logical, and based on the poll results, that seems to be the popular opinion.

LOL. I don't actually care either. Just interesting study in human psyche.

For some reason, everytime I read this, this comes to mind.

Alice Cooper and the Devils Cave. Great game.

Quoted from Roostking:

What about my supposed original movie poster from 78 I posted. No JC.. just Halloween.

Yeah. I'm aware of that one as well. I found versions both with and without. Who knows...

#103 2 years ago
Quoted from lpeters82:

I have heard someone close to Spooky refer to the Halloween and Ultraman as the "good license" and "bad license". This was in code, so I'm not positive which was which. I think I'm getting the "bad license".

Haha, in case it wasn't obvious, I was referring to Halloween and RZ's Halloween.

#122 2 years ago

ULT made the most sense, if they want to go with UKR....well...smh.

Ain't no one going to refer to it by Ultraman Kaiju Whatever.

#132 2 years ago
Quoted from finnflash:

I actually hate all the abbreviations and will try my best to just type the whole name of every game going forward. Not sure why that started and in what other hobbies is this used?

What I hate worse is how this site divides every game into multiple versions...
