Table Pack #32 Speculation

[pm1109]

I can't imagine so, even with all the toys and DMD. It really looks silly to me.

I guess I'll find out when I play it.

We might be surprized
Anyways we have had 2 strong tables in a row and TAF coming
Cant have it all right

Again, I expect a lot of sequels (The Party Zone, Earthshaker, High Speed II) and a few to finish up the series (Jackbot). I also highly, highly, HIGHLY expect to finally see Red & Ted's Roadshow. These are the tables that have been most requested, are most popular, and are all unlicensed.

The rest is just guess work.

Party zone is similar in theme to dr dude and is the sequel to that plus Elvira and the party monsters and party animal. So references to all three tables. The layout is very different and it is a pretty fun game. There is a gimmick where you build up levels like the dude o meter but this is easier to achieve and it has really cool lighting effects. The one drawback for me is the 2 ball multiball. I wish it had a third but lots of those system 11's, especially the ones this was based on, have 2 ball so even with a new chipset they kept the 2 ball trend alive for this series.

I've seen videos, and it just doesn't look that interesting to me at all. However, I'll try to reserve judgement. I thought "Flight 2000" was going to be terrible, and it was an absolute blast.

Prequel/sequel to "Whirlwind", at least according to most people. (I never remember which one came before the other.)

Hmm i initially though Hurricane (god i hope that trilogy comes to TPA at some point) as i believe one of the clowns on the playfield has that hat on but i guess Party Zone is more likely.....im not a fan of that table however

Well,
On the TZ picture they added a party hat on the guy's head.
And... there's a table called party zone...
So... it could be this one.

I say "could be" because it happened sometimes a hint was easy and in the end it was not the table we thought.
Remember black rose? ^^

Actually I never got the hint for Black Rose. I originally thought it was going to be either Black Knight 2000 or High Roller Casino but then it turned out being that BR. How did people figure out the hint, because the only thing I saw in there that related to the word black was "Always Bet On Black."

In that case it could also be, The Simpsons Pinball Party !!!

Im still saying Hurricane

Clowns can have that kind of hat but the Cyclone clown doesn't have one and it would be another alphanumeric table. Party Zone doesn t have that hat but, well, Hurricane has it.

I can't imagine them releasing Hurricane before Cyclone. That'd be like putting out the Getaway before High Speed. I think it's Party Zone.

Going by your logic they would have to release Comet first. I do not agree with this. They are 3 completely different tables all based on the same subject. The getaway is named High speed 2 and that makes it a direct follow up. Even Bride of Pinbot came out before pinbot on TPA. It is not like you have to play Cyclone first to understand Hurricane. High speed is the only table that I feel it was wise and important to release the first one first. Just my opinion.

I do believe it is Party Zone coming out next month, though

 

[IGoFirstIndy]

i hear ya, Karl. I actually totally forgot about Comet. Good point. I just feel Cyclone and Hurricane are sorta similar. And Hurricane is the better table. Either way i'd want them both. I'd love for Hurricane to be the next table!

Rod Serling is about to enter.....The Party Zone.

The party hat came from a Google Image search for Party Hat.
