    Quoted from Frippertron:

    the older I get the more I appreciate early solid state machines. I think they have the randomness of an EM and a decent rule set that makes the replayability off the charts. Newer games are certainly more advanced and interesting but I feel early SS games have the most replayability. I always feel I can do better next time on Flash Gordon or EBD. In my opinion they have the perfect rulesets, both simple looking and yet difficult to achieve, the pinball Othello if you will

    I agree. After owning EBD, I get it now. Got to play Firepower a few weeks back at the newest Pinballz location in Austin, and got hooked hard. I've got my eye out for one now. That one more game feeling is what I'm enjoying these days over the long quest type games. Don't get me wrong, I've got a short list of DMD games to add to the collection....Love them all, but early SS is a pretty damn fine era.
