I'm a self proclaimed X-Files nut; I wished to the very essence of my being that it would make a good machine before I played it, I then found one on location and to my chagrin (althought not to my surprise), good it is not. Even for a huge X-Files fan like myself, its not very enjoyable past a...
Addendum: As others have said, the option to have it customizable would probably draw the most appeal to pinheads. Also, I would suggest having the option of providing glass to cover the playfield; some prefer playing with it on and the occasional airball off of a target can be an issue without it.
Can't wait for CENTAUR! So glad to have an early 80s Bally come to TPA, I hope they keep that up.
Oh, and this:

A nailbiter! It was a very hard choice for me between EBD and Centaur, but eventually I went with the latter. Fireball is a great EM, but I don't think it would transfer well to TPA.
That's a great tutorial video, but Taxi is one of the TPA games where I think strategy varies greatly from the actual table to the simulated one. I have to agree with the OP- combo ramp shots to light the million is the only way to go (while also locking balls/starting multiball when...
Hurry! Hurry! Step Right Up!
Despite being plagued by the progressive jackpot and repetitive shot strategies that came to be the hallmark of a lot of System 11s, I find Cyclone to be oddly appealing. Unique playfield layout and an eerie sound and art package all work well together in one...
Very excited about this one; a solid collaboration between Brian Eddy and Lyman Sheats Jr. Vid looks great and if if STTNG is any indication, this table should be even prettier and bug free than those that came before it. I may be in the minority but I'm excited about Genie as well. I hope they...
Wasn't sure whether to post this here or in Real Pinball; the first 45 minutes of this video is tournament footage of TZ for anyone who is interested. Enjoy!

Dude, you're totally right, the evil money grubbing powers that be in Big Bear Lake are sitting behind a room full of monitors filled with bug threads, petting a white cat and laughing manically while they send your cash through their industrial size bill counters.
I've gotten 10b plus on BoP; it doesn't register on local high scores and therefore gives no HoF points either. Your best bet is to try and get there again and tilt out close to 10b. 1,000 HoF points is actually 9b, I beleive.
Welcome! I've lived across the country and settled now in Denver, but I'm originally from Buffalo; North Buffalo to be specific (near Hertel and Starin). Great town- tends not to get any love because its not NYC. Queen city represent!
