XM. Holy smokes people love this game and I hate its guts. It gets the neuromancer's top prize for Most Moronic Modern Pinball. I'll tell you why:

1. Giant wolverine toy that blocks any interesting shots to the left side.
2. Magneto disc thing that extremely forcefully throws your ball around the playfield like some demented whirlwind.
3. Boring shots that have to be made in excessive repetition 15-20 times in order to be completed.
4. Crappy voice acting and dialogue that is super cheesy and not in a good way. Did I mention annoying music?
5. Unintuitive rules that are not at all apparent to a layperson.

These all add up to make one miserable drain-o-matic that feels like torture to play.
