    Star Trek at Starburst

    Game still has a VUK, just sends it somewhere else. I liked the idea of the warp ramp being fed by the vuk, but if it doesn't work reliably, then shitcan it.

    The Walking Dead Season 4 Trailer

    new season finally started! I wonder how long this show will go one for? I was at the book store, they had a ton of the source comic books, so the story lines obviously exist forever pretty much.

    Predator Pinball artwork

    ha, yeah BBB must have been quite the ride. Even now that is completed, nothing from Gene would ever make me think he was capable of getting that project done. As Brock mentioned above, I'll mostly be paying attention to how home brew it is looking at expo.

    What are you excited to see at Expo?

    Whether or not you are going, what are you excited about? I'm not going but will be glued to the news and updates. This year seems to be a watershed year with all the new pinball projects nearing completion. I hope we see some near final machines and learn of shipping dates.

    Predator Pinball artwork

    Well, we were talking about feeling confidence in the project. For $250 I'm rolling the dice and can live with that. But I can still have concerns about how things are coming together.

    Predator Pinball artwork

    It's not the design that is the issue for me, but that it displays a complete lack of business sense. It's a homebrew site promoting their homebrew experiment, not the machine based on a movie license with 250 pre-orders totaling $1,000,000. Anyhow, as stated above, it doesn't make me feel...

    Predator Pinball artwork

    The website is contributing to my concern. Not only that it has no mention of Predator, but that they spent time working on it themselves, when they should have a shit ton of work in front of them. Creating a website is just busy work. And in this case totally unnecessary since the 250 machines...

    Predator Pinball artwork

    I'm a little worried. Shortcomings with the game until now have been forgivable because it was a work in progress. from what they've told us, the expo game will be 100% complete. or, if not, then they still aren't capable of shipping anytime soon. I'm later in the build order though, so Drano...

    Happy Birthday frolic

    Thanks, everybody :). 1 more year and everything goes to shit, I'm told :). My wife made a Tron cake, the bakery has some sort of inkjet for edible ink.

    TOPL - Brawl For All - Oct 20th

    I like the idea and think this will be a big improvement over double elimination. My only concern with this format is that it can bottleneck waiting for a handful of players to finish their games each round. The only solution that comes to mind is since the software is tracking who has played...

    Star Trek at Starburst

    Ok, got some games in at the showroom for Playdium in Toronto, here are my thoughts: -For a "Pro" model it looked awesome with all the leds and clear plastic ramps. It definitely outshined all the other Pros on the showroom. -Game placed smooth as ice. You start looping those shots and you are...

    Thanks Mike. Can't wait to see what the LEs look like. The Pro of this game seems really decent though.

    Is a trip to Playdium worth it?

    I took my kids to the arcade last night. I think they had about 8 games total. -WOZ was not functioning (blank screen, LEDS were going crazy) -xmen, avengers, rolling stones, bug buck hunter, avatar, maybe a tron, iron man no acdc or metallica the xmen was near the entrance and had a ticket...
