    Barenaked Ladies new SILVERBALL album coming June 2, 2015

    Got the album last week, and it's pretty good-it's definitely growing on me. I still kind of miss the sound they had as a 5 piece, if for no other reason than having another singer in the mix changed things up a little more, but they still manage to keep some variety in the tracks. Silverball...

    Zidware upcoming Sh*t Storm

    Just to avoid breaking the only set they have, or for some other reason? You'd think that they'd want the game showing at the best they can right now...

    Zidware upcoming Sh*t Storm

    It looks like a game at least, but definitely an unfinished one. I think it's telling that in the Pinball News video, the ramp didn't get made once. Not sure if I see $16k worth of stuff in there, but we'll see how it develops. I suppose the question is, will the prospective owners like what...

    High Scores

    Managed to double my old GC score on SM last night to end up with 485,954,590. The only thing I didn't end up hitting was Super Hero, and now I'm not really sure what else I needed to do. I had all the villains (3x) and all of the lights in the centre lit. Do you have to actually complete all...

    Zidware upcoming Sh*t Storm

    Hey, at this point a print of some of the Zidware stuff might be the only thing anyone sees of these games. Nice to see at least some of the information about what actually got created start making it out there though. It looks like there was some legitimately good ideas in all of this, but...

    Anyone else planning on going to the Massey Hall show in Nov?

    Zidware upcoming Sh*t Storm

    That actually looks like the software was further along than I expected. I'm assuming that everything was written from scratch though, including the OS, which would take a LONG time...

    Zidware upcoming Sh*t Storm

    So how are those ramps even supposed to shoot? Are there magnets there to accelerate the ball up those slopes, or are the flippers so strong that they'll cannonball up there (probably breaking things in the process)? Just looks to be way taller than a standard game, so this could be an issue...

    Zidware upcoming Sh*t Storm

    So now AIW/RAZA buyers can convert over to a MG at 1:1, but they have no idea what the difference between the 2 versions will be, except that the cheaper version has all the same features, but is $4000 less. Not sure if that just means $4000 in "bling", but that's still a huge difference. Even...

    Zidware upcoming Sh*t Storm

    Given the reports of suppliers and employees not getting paid, there'd be a long line to get cash out of the deal. The offer for RAZA buyers is pretty laughable too-1/2 credit on a MG? Right... There's some talk on pinside from the looks of things about trying to press criminal fraud charges...

    Zidware upcoming Sh*t Storm

    Um...ok... 2 more years to deliver MG? I thought it was supposed to be most of the way done by now? I also find it funny that the original 16 game LE made it up to 199 games somehow-I'll bet some of the original owners aren't too happy about that one. There's also nothing that they can do at...

    SOLD 1998 Cactus Canyon

    I had no idea that CCC had gone to a full colour ROM-last time I tried it was a while ago though. Neat mod for the game though.

    How to join TOPL

    Glad you could make it out-if you're really looking for more match play, come out to the playoffs (which are also at Jim's place this season). 20 rounds of head to head games! Doing more in a single night would just make things go on way too long-if we start league games at 8, usually all the...

    When you only have space for a small number of games, you have to make each slot count. Good luck in the search!

    Neat-I wonder where they shot the pinball bits? Someone in Austin's gameroom if they're working with Rooster Teeth. Looks like all of the "buy now" links are going to itunes-anyone else selling this digitally and DRM free? Doesn't look like they're selling direct on their website.

    Kiss Pinball Officaly announced

    Maybe they left it out to be more like the original Bally machine?

    I'm pretty sure that Nick Angel has one for sale-shinynick on here I believe. Try pinging him.

    The Pinball Diaries (what did you do today?)

    Finally got around to getting keyed alike locks for all my games and it was well worth it. I picked up a dozen locks from PBL (so I have a couple of spares), and it's great not to have to manage 9 sets of keys anymore. It means that it's much faster to open up a machine to check something...

    Wooooo!

    Congrats-must have been a pretty stacked field with everyone there for IFPA, not to mention the locals. Good luck in the next one!

    Drano vs. spiroagnew

    Sounds like a really cool location to go check out-one of these years I'll make it. Glad to see that Clay opened the place up more than once-it sounded like last year could have been a one time deal.
