Ÿour LEAST favorite tables?

[Jericho]

Got to be Genie for me. Matters are made worst that I keep going back to it with delusions of the 3 million wizard goal.

 

[Rudy Yagov]

Honestly, Cirqus Voltaire is probably my least favorite. I know a lot of people like it, but I just can't get into it.

 

[Rafie]

My least favorite table is definitely Black Hole. I never liked it and I find it quite boring. I also don't like that one wizard goal that has you acquiring a certain amount of points from the lower playing field. Everything else is pretty much good.

 

[Espy]

Doctor Dude, but to be honest I would probably like it a lot more if it wasn't for the gift of gab rap.

Never really got into Harley Davidson either. Was the same for Taxi until recently, when I tried it again out of boredom and "got" it.

 

[Bowflex]

Harley is pretty bad. Don't like the voiceovers, And it actually seems to lower the coolness factor of hogs in the real world.

 

[MadScience2006]

Harley is my least favorite and the one and only table i did NOT buy. Something about the theme rubs me the wrong way. It may work well in real life...like in a bar, but I just can't take that "Live to ride, ride to live" line over and over.

 

[Fungi]

The only thing that's really cool about Harley Davidson in real life is the MAJOR rumble it makes. It doesn't just vibrate, it RUMBLES. It's a pretty good analog of a hog. Take that away, and it's done. Thus the suckiness on TPA.

 

[Gorgar]

Personally, I love Harley Davidson because the audio is so ridiculous. My least favorite would probably be Cactus Canyon. I just can't get into it. Also, while the real table is great, I hate the pinball arcade version of Scared Stiff because it is way too easy. Twilight Zone is pretty easy too, but no where near as easy as Scared Stiff.

Goin Nuts: do I really need to explain why?

The rest I like in some capacity or another. Except HD, that one just irks me with its bad art, bad DMD bad everything but compared to Goin Nuts it is Wizard of Oz quality.

So yeah my list consists of Goin Nuts.

I love Dr. Dude with all my heart. Great theme and style. The real life machine was one of my most enjoyed experiences at papa this year.

Man the Dr. Dude hate... That's a shame that people are missing out on such a great table cause they can't get over.... What exactly? The Gift of Gab? OHHHHHH-Kkk...??? I guess you dudes just aren't radical enough.

Objectively Dr. Dude has fine gameplay. The real machine is so fair and enjoyable.

To even put it in the same category as Goin Nuts... That really shocks me. Objectively it doesn't get worse than Nuts, it's a complete button mashers game.

 

[Bowflex]

I like dr. Dude. It has a nice balance of difficult shots and objectives with a nice cheesy theme. Not deserving of being on the bottom or anywhere near it for that matter.

 

[brakel]

It seems to me like even some of the very best machines run a tight line between fun and annoying when it comes to voices and themes. I really like Twilight Zone but some aspects are borderline annoying like "don't touch the door" and a few others, but the game play more than makes up for it. I can see that game play doesn't make up for it for some people on some tables. When it comes down to it, it's all pinball to me!

 

[superballs]

I grew up in the era of Wayne's World and Bill & Ted. Campy and dated as it is the table is awesome. With the exception of the gift of gab, which makes me want to commit suicide, the audio is fun.

 

[netizen]

Everytime I get the gift of gab I start reciting Beastie Boys lyrics in my head instead

The gift of gab is the gift that I have
And that girl ain't nothin' but a crab
Educated no, stupid yep
And when I say stupid, I mean stupid fresh

 

[Mick Morry]

When I was young and I heard "The Gift Of Gab" line over and over again in the arcades...it bugged the heck out of me. Now when I hear it in game it reminds me of my youth. So I have to say I now strangely do not mind hearing it over and over again. Anything that jogs good memories is a good thing.

I think most of that has to be put down to the quality of FarSight's conversion of the real table. CC, I believe is in the same boat.

What's wrong with the conversion? I played a real one, it plays better but I find that's true of all the tables.

Champion Pub is easily the worst TPA table. In fact I think it has gotten worse since it was released, and I am not sure if they have actually tried to improve the game at all.

I really want to like Champion Pub because of the music and character quotes but since the last update, it is unplayable on Kindle Fire due to the launch button issue. Some of the necessary shots on the table seem so tight in comparison and the slightest mistimed shot off a flipper is doomed.

I spent my free time playing this today in attempt to get better. You just can't improve (get better) on this table. I reset if I don't win the first fight on the first ball just because I want to. Needless to say, I only played 2 or 3 whole games. You are right, tight shots and the simple shots are punished a lot. Never played the real table so I can't compare the two, but reports are the real table is easier.
