Pinball Freaks...


Who loves Pinball? I grew up on it and just bought myself my first own pinball machine for the house. I picked up a Terminator 2 Pinball Machine from a private owner last Wednesday.

What are some of your favorite Pinball machines? I love this one, also I like South Park and the old Cyclone machines. Maybe next year I'll pick another one up.

I played the new Elvis one at the bowling alley last Friday, didn't really like it, but I'm not a fan of Elvis either.

if there was anything in the arcade industry I liked it was pinball

diner
T 2
creature from the black lagoon
can't remember most of the names???

I used to cheat on them though, I would wear out the "tilt" on them and them pick them up sooos the ball comes back up the middle when it went down the sides, easy to get myself hours of free games while playing these "under the influence" I was kicked out of the bowling alley many of times (we were bad kids).

Let me be the first to say "Firehawk, you are a geek."


I meant that in a nice way though, you're a nice geek.

Yeah they've since redesigned the tilt so you can't do that anymore .

I have since bought 2 more pinball machines, which brings my total to 3 now. I bought a Judge Dredd and a Demolition Man.

i remember judge dredd, and I remember "funhouse" their was another one with a syborg or something (it was a chick syborg) so i want to say "sexbot" but I know it's not it, we used get a kick out of that one.


"GET THE CPU" LOL, thats all I remember from that one!

basiclly if it had muti-ball and was a challenge to "POP" then I was game!!!
