    I went to the bottom of pinside's top list and found the lowest ranked 16 games that aren't boutique or special order.

    We just finished the best machine, so let's see what we feel is the worst mainstream pinball machine made in the last decade. Remember, you are voting for the worst games, each one that sucks more than the other that it's paired against.

    It's pretty interesting how some of these games are rated so low.

    Rules:

    1. Thunderbirds is exempt because there would be no contest.
    2. Games are selected from the current top 100 of all time
    3. To keep with tradition, voting closes Saturday night.

    Quoted from Dayhuff:

    I'm thinking AFM....., just kidding.......LOL. Gotta be something like Stellar Wars maybe, those sounds made it unplayable for me.

    Sorry, my poll didn't save. I had to rebuild it. It's up now! : D

    I tried to keep out boutique games and commissioned releases. I know the list isn't perfect, but people aren't familiar with games like dominoes etc.

    I figured WWE would probably take it, but some of the battles will still be fun. Munsters isn't doing so well against full throttle... Either FT is too rare, is people hate Munsters pretty bad.

    Quoted from Rolpa:

    Am I the only one here who really hates Kiss?

    I used to, but if you play it enough, it grows on you.

    If the updated the code on bb, I'd still own the game. Fun!

    I didn't Cherry pick anything and explained the logic a few posts in. I edited my initial post to clarify.

    I went to the bottom of pinside's top list and found the lowest ranked 16 games that aren't boutique or special order. I suppose maybe full throttle should have been left out as well, but Highway was a real company....

    The goal is to discuss the worst games in mainstream pinball. If you don't like it, there are thousands of other threads on pinside waiting for you.

    The poll is about pins people actually buy and play, and it's based on pinside's numbers. Blame pinside voters for r&m being on here. Chill, it'll be gone after the first round.

    I personally think the Avengers should win, hands down, considering it was a feature release and is just awful.

    Quoted from pinballaddicted:

    Avengers was an awesome game. Set up properly game plays fantastic with a few tough shots.

    Well, it just made it to the second round, so we'll have to see how many people agree with you. I think setup doesn't help the piss-poor design much.

    Quoted from patrickvc:

    Rob Zombie worst for me

    I was hoping it would be awesome. The art is amazing, but the shots... they all seemed to be off. I played it for an hour and didn't really get anywhere. Bummer.
