    Quoted from Atomicboy:

    I like widebodies. I like the range in shots. I don't know why people don't care for them.

    I don't often agree with Gary Stern, buuuuut on this occasion:

    Quoted from toyotaboy:

    hasn't Gary said on many ocassions that standard body plays better (because all the action happens vertically), and widebodys spend too much time sideways?

    Sums it up for me. Waaaay too much time spent trying to get the ball back to the flippers as it rolls all over the seemingly infinite real estate of the playfield. I don't need every game hyper fast but I straight up like vertical action better than a ball rolling around side to side off slings and rubber rings all day.

    That said... I really like Embryon
