    Its funny seth and I just talked about this. The mechanical aspect of pinball is what makes me enjoy pinball so much. No matter how much you say its not random there are literally infinite pointd of contact with different ball english. Its rather hard to predict a shot unless is a pure safe shot aka. Ramp to flipper. Or saucer shot you know you can craddle.

    You are literally taking a metal ball and bashing it at everything. Its the ultimate physics/gravity fed game.

    Now, vids do internet connectivity way better. Story telling is better. There are a handful of games that I still play. But, ive been actively migrating consol / pc gamers to pins for a while now. While none every give up these games completely (why should they) they now have a craving and understanding of the power of thw silver ball.
