Well put, and well said. Bummer about having to kiss the 100mil SOS bunus goodbye (50mil + double scoring). That alone woulda been strong braging rights. Tilted away a decent double scoring bonus too from all the Gem shots but I get why you had to try to make the save! Tron is a very well balanced game IMO. You did complete the ultimate Quorra 7-combo though or whatever its called. Nice

Stop hitting the damn posts LOL!

If you hate a game you own and can't find it in yourself to part with it. That's how you know it's a good game.

Pinball has that, "Just one more game, I know I can beat it". A great designed game has that all the time. Great report.

Yep I have been there and yet the game stays. I must have a "Tron" sickness.

Tron dominates the crying sub forum. Rightfully so, the game gets you up just to beat you down.

Yeah, I found out Tron sucked so bad that I decided to keep it. Two fresh coats of wax makes it really suck.

I can't believe it was only three and a half years ago that I made this bonehead move.

Me: Hey Honey.... Stern is releasing Tron as their next title. It looks cool and even has Daft Punk on it!

Wife: You should buy one.

Me: (Trying to be be "the nice guy") Nah.... I have enough machines.

Wife: OK... but if you want it, you better get it now before it sells out.

Me: Nah.... It won't sell out.

Occasionally, I wake up in a cold sweat at 2AM hearing those words.

been there, done that. just got sea of simulation started and failed miserably. only reason to want to play something is this exact nonsense..... its like acdc draining every time when it comes out of the pop bumpers!!!!! 20 expletives later i am hitting the start button again???? d'oh

Keep chasing the dragon.....

LMAO - this is the exact same conversation my wife and I had before we bought one of the last of the first run games NIB; except after the wife says "you should buy one" there was a long pause so that I had time to digest that it was her suggestion!

You misspelled awesome....

hah. great recap. this is exactly why i love this pin. it's really the epitome of flow and "just one more game". they just moved it out of my local barcade and i miss it a lot!

+1

Hey guys if the game sucks THAT bad I can take one off you hands for a cool 2k.

Tron still sucks. Way less than the new titles.

Had STLE and at the time I thought of buying Tron instead but went ahead with NIB STLE. Had the game a few months with a code update and got bored very quickly.
So bought the Tron as it was always at the back of my mind when playing STLE and have not stopped loving it!!!!
The colours, sounds, I love it!! The Gem shot will make you go insane in the membrane! !! 20141225_184013.jpg

It is amazing to me that I can miss that huge gaping hole that is the disk shot! Hey, I learned a new shot the other day. From a trap on the left, with the Recognizer bank up, you can do a quick backhand, grazing the far left target on the bank and going straight up through the Quorra lane. Works about 50% of the time on my game. Try it!

I feel the same.............. but with IM & BSD

It sucks so bad you need to sell it to me cheap…

I've done the straight to Portal with double scoring running for a 100 million SoS bonus only once since owning the machine and it was the best feeling I've ever had playing pinball. Still the favorite machine in my collection.

I thought I was an ok player... and have been playing the CRAP out of it for 2 years and have yet to finish the damn portal multiball !@#$

never leaving indeed.

When's the next comp fella? Would love to put some decent time on this much loved plank and see for myself if they sizzle matches the sausage.
