Gorgar

Gorgar was the first talking pinball machine with a vocabulary of seven words: Gorgar, Speaks, Beat, You, Me, Hurt, Got. The words could be combined together for different phrases.

This may sound rather ridiculous 40 years later but was absolutely leading edge in 1979, not only for the pinball-industry but for technology in general, and nobody should forget that.

Plus, after the sensational success of FLASH, it was the second SS-milestone for Williams and did a further important step to beat Bally and becoming #1 in the industry.

It still ranks at #15 of the most produced Flippergames ever.
