Evel Knievel. Just an opinion. I know the ratings don't agree, but the double spinners and the drops just make it a great game for me.

Quoted from TigerLaw:

Actually I think it's tied with Paragon. Plus they're two of the best pins of the 70's.

Quoted from RWH:
Centigrade 37

Also, a very cool game. I got to play this at SPFXTED's house and I thought the theme was great, along with a neat back box animation.

If you go by the top 100 EM’s it’s Centigrade 37

There really are not enough reviews on the EM side of this site... I suggest anyone who has not rated their favorite EM's listed in this thread to do so. It helps to "shake out" the best games.

Love the late 70s machines! Totally Biased, but I bought my machine for a reason.

Six Million Dollar Man is my favorite game. I'm a little disappointed that there are hardly any ratings for it on this site. Not enough to qualify it for any ranking. There were like 10K machines made so surely some pinsiders have played it.

Like I said, I love the 70's games, but am pretty surprised that the 80s machine thread got so much more traction than this one.

Its a shame that more of us have not got onboard with the top 100EM's
