    MM seems to have a nice rhythm to it, finished off nicely by saving the damsel... one of the most satisfying shots in pinball!

    Quoted from 30FathomDave:

    Word. Tron gets my vote.

    Errr... ehh! That don't make no sense! How does the TRON 1-2 work? If you shoot the left ramp the ball comes back to the right flipper... leaving the left ramp shot the only direct ramp shot... so that's a 1-1 not a 1-2! And if you shoot the right ramp with the upper flipper it brings the ball to the left flipper, where no ramp shot is available... so a 1-0... Where's the 1-2 in TRON??

    TRON is actually a good example of a game that distinctly lacks the 1-2-1-2 combo ramp shot set-up, and anyone that believes TRON actually is a great example of having this is suffering from a condition that I've noticed recently which I call 'TRON blindness'... I think it must be the illuminated ramps that do it

    Quoted from PorkChopExpress:

    T2 is the best of the afforables priced pins.
    Tron is the best of the premiums.

    You cant really Combo the ramps on Tron. ACDC,IM, MM, WCS, AFM & SM are all cool to combo but of all the games ive had probably IJ (WMS) had the most satisfying combo ramp action especially with the difficult right ramp.

    That's the point I'm making 2 posts up... you can't combo ramp shots on TRON at all... I'm puzzled why anyone would think this... classic case of 'TRON blindless'

    Taxi, FT, Demo Man

    Quoted from Jackontherocks:

    DM is a great ramp combo game based on my memory last time playing it.

    Your memory serves you correctly. Demolition Man has CRAZY FLOW, especially for a wide body. The inundation of wire form ramps give you a good number of possible combos as well. This would be near the top of my list.

    Another pin that I don't think has been mentioned is No Fear. Maybe a little less of a standard flipper feed than what we're talking about here, but it's got that ramp that feeds an UPPER-RIGHT flipper. Maybe something else to look at.

    Best of luck with your search,

    Kingpin is up there with MM in all-time best 1-2 ramps. Plus they have spinners! Feels so great to drill those ramps a few times in succession and keep the spinners going.

    T2 all day long. Once you get dialed in, you can go ramp ramp ramp all day long! And then BOOM! IT"S PAYBACK TIME!

    Any game with specific alternating ramp combos such as T2, Shadow, FT will generally be better than games like Indy in terms of scoring reward, but then there is always the feeling of shooting the ramps which can be more satisfying for the player eg: MM, AFM

    Yes I agree. This was one of the first games I remember playing at a local pizza parlor called Ball Park Pizza back in CA.
