Already beaten Germany a few times and am curious about Flintstones. Thinking of a possible trade for Flinstones
Thoughts?
And please, only pipe in if you have time on both machines. Not just a game or two.

Value-wise FS is worth a bit more, but WCS94 is the better game...and I own FS by the way. FS is fun but multiball is waaaay overpowering on the points. Nothing else matters after you get a super jackpot a couple times. That said, it's still fun to go through the modes to get the mystery wizard mode. The "move your car" mode is a great nod to CFTBL and JD. And bowling is a fun side game. If you're done with WCS go for it...worst case, you hate it and trade it for something else or another WCS.
Hold the phone.
Another pinsider started a thread about too many Flinstones vs ?? threads.

Flintstones for me. The ramps on both sides that return the ball behind the flippers is really cool. Then you get to bowl for a strike. Pretty cool. I hate soccer and the back glass is terrible on the wcs94. If you're a soccer nut, then go for that game. Otherwise it's flintstones.
I hate soccer and LOVE WCS! I love "The Flintstones" and HATE the machine! Play wise, I'm with Syco54645...it's always "let me get one more game in" on WCS, whereas with FS it's a matter of "I guess I'll have to play it again" (if it's in a tournament) or "I know I could do better but there's other machines" (just playing casually). Most of my FS play has revolved around other machines being occupied and it was still open. Go WCS, hands down, in my opinion...
A dialed in flinstones with a couple spotlights to brighten up the upper playfield is more fun than WCS in my opinion. I own a pretty tricked-out flintstones and have logged many games on WCS. They're both fun in their own ways but flinstones adds a few additional challenges (bowling/search for the kids) that give it a leg up on WCS if you ask me.
Quoted from modfather:WCS is kinda lame as I can hit goal after goal without much effort as the ball is returned to the right flipper. I can play that game with one hand, score goals ..and drink a beer at the same time
Scoring goals outside of multiball isn't really playing wcs either.
Own both, and have played both extensively. WCS is, no question, the better game by miles and miles.
That being said, one of the previous posters is correct: if you're bored with a game, you're bored with a game, and nothing's going to change that.
Sometimes you don't know what you've got until it's gone. Changing WCS out for Flintstones would be one of those times for most people, I believe.

WCS is a fantastic game. One of the best that caters to inexperienced and experienced players pretty well. That said, if you bored of WCS, you will probably bore of Flintstones very quickly. Flintstones is pretty easy and and rather shallow. I play one on route and I saw all there is to see in a handful of games. Fun to play once in a while, but I would never want to own one.
