    Quoted from crujones4life:

    Keith Elwin is not the GOAT...he has designed 4 pins for the love of God. Let's see what he's coming up with in 5 to 10 years. Then we can compare him to the great designers like Ritchie, Lawlor, etc.

    Avengers Is a Mind F*** Confusion.

    WWE Wrestlemania’s upper playfield is trash.

    But it’s still better than Twilight Zone’s upper playfield.

    Quoted from trecemaneras:

    It reads like he wrote the first book in college and then came back 20 years later at the height of his career and started writing the rest.

    Are you serious? You nailed it because that's almost exactly what happened. He did rework the original Gunslinger some.

    Quoted from DarthPaul:

    They can't help themselves. I miss the days when my crazy uncle was limited to forwarding emails.

    I work in IT, use social media and message boards, but still think the whole enterprise is a net negative for society.

    Here’s a unpopular opinion.Stop trying to censor the truth!

    #110 1 year ago

    Keeping up with the Jones is overrated. Set your own goals in life, don’t have someone else dictate your happiness.

    Quoted from Vino:

    She looked pretty good getting out of hibernation in Alien. Beyond that, I agree. I don't know why people think Jamie Lee Curtis is attractive. Too each their own.

    Elwin fan boys ride his jock so hard it's nauseating. I don't even like (insert theme here) but if Elwins on it I'm a buyer! Oh Stern didn't get any assets at all for (insert theme here), that's OK, in Elwin we trust. LMMFAO

    Edit - JP is trash and Avengers is his best game.

    So crazy people buying a game on the play & coding over theme & assets. I guess it is kind of shocking these days

    Sounds similar to buying a certain theme regardless of any other factors.

    Yeti coolers and mattress firm are giant money laundering schemes. There are not enough people buying beds to justify the number of mattress firms there are, and no one is actually buying the $300 yeti coolers.

    Avengers: Infinity Quest is more fun than a root canal.

    Slightly.

    #124 1 year ago
    Quoted from grantopia:

    Ha! That's funny you say that because I thought I was in the minority there too. Beautiful game...plays like poop.

    This. Centaur is really beautiful but man, it's slow, nothing to do and a total snoozefest. I can't believe it has such a cult status.

    #125 1 year ago

    Centaur looks good, sounds good, multiball on the wide-open playfield is chaotically satisfying, but yeah, doesn't hold up for great players or long-term replayability.

    #126 1 year ago

    The coolest thing aboot Centaur is the outlane posts, which is also the lamest thing. They're either too easy or do nothing.
    Its the best looking pin ever and sounds great; you gotta understand that's what 78% of people are looking for.
    Constant MB is nice for folks too, inline drops, & magnet.
    Needs a spinner.

    #127 1 year ago
    Quoted from TheLaw:

    Needs a spinner.

    Oh man, for sure. I think you just ruined Centaur for me.

    #128 1 year ago

    Y'all need to adjust the tilt bob to strict as hell. Of course Centaur is too easy for you. You abuse those save gates all day.

    I don't understand why a Children's hospital would want and accept a pinball machine from a charity. High maintenance, loud, I would expect it would need to be wiped down constantly due to germs....in a children's hospital. Is a nurse expected to take off the glass to free a stuck ball? Stuck balls probably last for weeks and render this huge game inoperable. Some kids will need to stand on a stool. Nice.

    An Arcade 1Up pinball machine is what should be placed there, if anything pinball related. A few Arcade 1Ups are all that's needed for the kids. Perfectly sized , quiet and enjoyable.

    It's okay to put ketchup on a hot dog once in a while, but don't make it a habit.

    #136 1 year ago

    Sex and the City was actually a pretty darned entertaining show, even if forced to watch it by your significant other.

    Don’t get the hype for Loser Kid podcast. Decided to listen to the last few episodes and did not become a fan at all.

    #138 1 year ago

    Those KLOV arcade guys deserved to lose their money to a scammer. Just dumb choices they made for arcade games.

    TLJ is the best Star Wars movie since 1980.

    #141 1 year ago

    I'd give it to Rogue One, but agree that episodes 7-9 are generally underrated by dejected fanboys.

    #142 1 year ago

    Did anyone ever finish 9? I put it up with EP3, Matrix 3, and last Hobbit movie.

    #143 1 year ago

    Rogue one is the most overated SW movie. Force groupie & Forrest Whitaker alone make it a comedy.

    For me 8 & 9 are fucking horrible, but still better than 1-3.
    7 is tight

    Agree, 7 was great. and the rest you list sucked ass.

    Ok, here's my unpop opinion. If everyone hates E1 so bad and shit on P2K, why are they over $4K on the market?

    #145 1 year ago
    Quoted from RyanStl:

    That's a question not an opinion. But the answer is always the same; Theme Whores. Newbs & SW fans always gotta try a SWe1.
    Same reason Freddy sells for over $1100.

    You are right. My opinon is it shouldn't be over $4K based on what I read about it, but only because I would love to have one cheap. I suppose that's the most popular opinion about any pin. I fail

    #147 1 year ago

    I guess also because the computer & monitor are expensive?

    #148 1 year ago
    Quoted from RyanStl:

    Did anyone ever finish 9? I put it up with EP3, Matrix 3, and last Hobbit movie.

    I really wish I could watch an Ep 9 that actually followed up on everything I loved about Ep 8. Nine felt like it was trying to walk back all the bold moves that 8 made in a weak, crowd-appeasing attempt that didn’t make either the people who hated 8 or who loved 8 happy. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    I didn’t hate Ep 9, it just didn’t feel like it had much continuity with what came before.

    Yeah, for me it was a huge “holy shit, I’m still a SW fan!” moment. I came home from the theater and binged clone wars and rebels like it was my job!

    #149 1 year ago

    I enjoyed Star Wars Episode One pinball when I owned it for a while. I had fun seeing how long I could combo the ramps since it kept track.

    I have no respect for a person who volunteers to moderate any forum. That is just such an odd task to want to voluntarily take on. It’s like the person needs a little bit of power in their weak ass life.
