Was in the area of Playdium in Mississauga today and thought I would spend my lunchtime playing some pins. I head back to the pin area and whoa, there is a thing of beauty that I've only seen online before...WOZ!! Unfortunately, while it was turned on and lit up, the card sniper wasn't working to play it. I asked a maintenance guy when it would be ready to play, but he wasn't sure.

I resigned myself to playing Tron for the first time (I see what the buzz is about-fun pin), IM (at first I thought it sucked, but after a few plays it grew on me), BBH (did not enjoy at all, the Elk target annoyed the crap out of me), and SM (fun game despite some wonky flipper action). Interesting while I was playing SM located a few machines down the bank from WOZ, the number of people checking out the game, taking pictures, buzzing about it. It is the sexy new chick at the bar. Hopefully they get it playing soon as I am excited to try it out...it looks amazing.

Playdium is a big entertainment centre with video, redemption, virtual reality, pinball etc. where you load a plastic card and swipe to play---it takes 5 credits/.85 cents per play on pinball. They had the swiper on the front but it wasn't working try as I may to swipe my play card over and over again in futility. The monitor on the pin itself was posting 1 swipe, 1 play. I'm going to try and get back there on Friday to see if it is up.

Sniper...LOL swiper got sniped by auto correct.
