...what was it's name? It began with a "W"... it's last game was Episode One: The Phantom Menace. That game KICKED ASS. But how do they expect you to keep shooting that screen? It's not possible to keep up that kind of accuracy (at least not for me)! ANYway, who are they and WHAT great games did they make? They made Indiana Jones and Twilight Zone, right? (THOSE MACHINES ROCKED!!!)

Try Theatre of Magic, it's a very solid pin, The Machine Bride of Pinbot looks to be a very unique one as well, my personal fave's "Big Guns", "Fire", "escape from the lost world" still need worked on...

I'm going to "Try" working on Big Guns, but this'll be a stretch, I have the manual and need a decent background piccy, then we'll see if I can do it! :)

Theatre of Magic is great, as is Attack from Mars (we have the real thing of both machines at work, and I tell ya great as Visual PinMAME is, it doesn't do 'em justice :)

All your other recommendations stand as well.

A localbar has a Theatre of Magic,but it hasn'tbeen working very well lately,,,Squall thinks I'm "killing" the machine! LOL J/K, because the rubber band connected to the left bumper kicker snapped when Iwas playing it, and the basement shot seems broken this time...Whoops,I did it again? *grin*...

Anyways, yeah, a working Theatre of Magic rocks, but we don't have too many cool pins in my neck of the woods, even when I visited Edinboro University last year *my Alma Mata* theydon't seem to have a well kept arcade either...Their Funhouse was in sad shape... *another great pin!*

Oh well at least we have emulation! :)
