Nothing like shifting them gears. I love the supercharger ball accelerator, very cool toy. Overall this is a great pinball. I will keep this one for a while and sell it in a few months.

First, I'm a serious car guy, so my review is going to be a little slanted as it hits home with me.

However, if this pin didnt play well, I would not keep it. I just love the theme and reason behind this pin. Take the original HS and make it better. The supercharger is definitely cool. I love getting 3 balls in there. It's not a deep game, but it does not matter. ZZ top tune can get a little annoying I suppose, but it goes well with the game. This game loves LED lighting and the backbox does well to add a couple RGB flashers to add some jazz up there. I sold my first one only to upgrade to a perfect condition machine. It will never leave my game room for any price.

A simple game with awesome flow. Supercharger is one of the coolest toys I've seen in pinball. HS2 also has one of the best jackpot shows ever, it's stunning. Video mode is cool, but too easy and it gets boring after a while.

This is just fun pinball. Steve Ritchie got it right.
Multiball jackpots are tough to achieve, and very rewarding as far as 'feeling' goes.
When you play this game, you actually feel as if you are outrunning the cops!
fun fun FUN. :)

i got to play this in a pinsiders game room and was blown away with the amount of fun it was. Im a novice player (id like to think i am). I thought it was neat with the shifter, turbo charger, topper. Heck its a real smooth game that i enjoyed and would play again if i saw it in the wild

love the ball circling the track and the siren going off. Video mode a bit repetitive. Shifing gears is fun as well.

For me this game is timeless. The racing engine sounds, running the lights for multiball and the flow is awesome.

I'm not a big fan of the theme but it plays great. The more I play it the more I like it. I like fast games.
I may change my ratings after I play it more. I've only played it about 10 times. Looking forward to playing again.

This game is a lot of fun! The game plays very fast, which I find exhilarating, but it is very intense and after I've had a good game on it, I feel kind of wiped out and want to go play something a little slower.

I like the play field art and the animations. The art is not elaborate, but I think it is perfect for the theme. Shifting gears adds a fun and unique element to the game. Video mode is kind of lame, but it goes well with the theme. Overall I find the machine fast, challenging, and endlessly entertaining. It does an excellent job incorporating the theme.

Great game to play and great looking game the supercharger toy has got to be one of the coolest features on a pinball machine.Not a hard game and not a deep enough ruleset for pinball masters but for novices this is fun fun fun.

Fast, Fun, Fantastic!

The three "Fs" make this a party pin, and worthy of a mid sized pin collection.

I got The Getaway through a trade and I didn't really know if I wanted to keep the game or not. I had played it once on location and thought it was fast and difficult but didn't really give it much of a chance. I was so wrong because its an awesome game! The Getaway has some great flow and very little stop and go to break up the action. Getting into a rhythm with the upper loop, hitting repeated right orbit shots or getting combos from the left orbit into upper loop with the upper flipper are some really fun flowing shots. The supercharger is a really cool toy but I wish there were more reasons to shoot it. I dont avoid shooting it, but you dont get much out of shooting it either and a bad shot can kick out unpredictably and even cause drains. The most fun is getting multiball jackpots and supers. Its challenging, fast, has some pretty unforgiving outlanes and although its not an incredibly deep game, its fun. Go out and play one and don't hesitate if you ever have a chance to own one!

The supercharger is BOSS! This game is a heck of a lot of fun. For the right price, it'd be a great addition to any game room.

well not one of the greatest games, the turbo charger is cool but that's about it!!
DMD animation is poor and ZZ tops music is cool at first but gets old very quick
I think its way over rated for what it is

Great game, very fun and fast! Excellent addition to any collection. theme did run a little stale after 2 years of playing, got a little repetitive but still a great SR game!

À proprement parler, il n'y a pas de rampes sur cette machine, le Superchanger est quelque chose de différent. Par contre, j'ai eu du fun en tabarnak sur The Getaway. Le thème est bien intégré, ce n'est pas une superbe oeuvre d'art à encadrer, mais est très cute.
Les règles sont très simples, comme Fish Tales, même qu'elles sont relativement semblables. Ça peut aller très vite, et le levier de vitesse te fait perdre des balles quand tu t'y empresse durant le gameplay. La musique de ZZ Top tue, évidemment, pour tout ceux qui aime le bon vieux rock '70s - '80s.
J'aimerais bien me l'offrir un de ces 4.

Supercharger loop is a hoot and shifting (on the plunger) while playing can be fun and challenging. A great revisited theme from the flow-mastah!

Not into this game at all. I much prefer the original System 11 High Speed.
