No way will every game be as good as IMDN. Some may be better but most will not be as good. For people expect IMDN type greatness for every game is just not logical thinking and it isnt going to happen. Some pinball machines are a home run and some are strike outs. Thats how its always been and how its always going to be.

Quoted from skink91:

I feel like this is too binary a description: it’s more like most pins are singles or doubles.

True, some games can be home runs, and some can be strike outs, but there are some singles, doubles, and triples, in between i guess also. I stand corrected.

Baseball is much better than a cargument right?

Would that make TWD an inside the park home run? (hopefully you can delete posts later, I have a feeling I might regret this one).

Yeah id say thats an accurate assessment. lol

Quoted from skink91:

I love the show, but thought the pin was just okay. I couldn’t even tell you why exactly.

I think the rules, coding, modes, and how challenging it is probably is what makes people love it more than the playfield design itself.
