    I was just thinking of posting this question how funny.
    My plan was to play them all at least once but I gravitated to the ones I like mostly in the 90’s era or had great flow with (Ex: World Cup Soccer, Corvette, No Fear, Indy 500, Fish Tales) or have not played since they were released in my high school days (Whitewater, Champion Pub, GNR) and or the new games (X-Men, Tron, Elvira & the Party Monsters, Banzai Run) never played before. I also enjoyed the pinball rodeo games which were different to play set up that way. I also played some of the old school arcade games once I got pinned out. I had to go back to Tempest which was first game I owned and see how far I could get. I made past blue level into red and the green before my three fingers clinched together but still managed the high score of the event for the two days. I tried NARC which was a classic, Rampage, Spyhunter, Ms. Pacman, racing games to break it up. In the end I determined there are really no bad pins and playing ones in great condition changes your opinion of them. As for the new Sterns some of them can be short ball games which I still think is a bummer and makes me enjoy all the 90’s area more. On a side note the Metallica playfield layout looks pretty good like an updated TFTC.

    I enjoyed SM but thought the flippers were a little weak compared to all the others I played. I mentioned it to Wes and I know he does not believe me becuase of not being able to hit all ramps with power.

    I wanted to enjoy JD as well but could not get into it. As for anyone who played the tournament games man were they set up or playing extremely fast compared to any other games on the floor.

    Wow AZ pinheads make it happen lighting speed. Wish I had that luck when I was searching for my TFTC.

    Wes don't forget us as No Fear brothers. I have I feeling the Metallica will be fast as well.

    Quoted from copperpot:

    Not me, he's thinking of Ben. No Fear is a pile of doo.
    -Wes

    Yes he said it in another post maybe when I said I loved it.
