Because it's by Lyman and pinside gobbles down Lyman's nuts.

Rai, have you actually played TWD much? If not, you really should get some games on it before buying.

The notion that TWD is good for novices is laughable. The only reason that's remotely true is because there are bash based mb's you can start. My wife/daughter don't even consider playing mine because it's difficult, whereas they will both regularly play ST. If you don't have good ball control skills, and are willing to take your time and get things stacked, you're never going to do well in TWD. And to get anything stacked, you have to complete the drops which are the most dangerous shot in the game (the bottom drop anyway). I'm sure you can set the game up easier, but if set up stock, if you brick a shot, your most likely losing that ball. Combine that with the inevitable SDTM drains from the pops/prison, it can be very frustrating.

I was on the verge of selling mine because of the drains, but it was because my tilt was too tight. I remembered that the reason I loved playing the game was because the couple TWD's local to me had forgiving tilts and it was fun to give it the business. I've since loosened my tilt, and am once again a big fan of the game.
