Classic Stern Poll - Official FarSight Poll (Closed)

[DaPinballWizard]

Never played any of these, but after diligent research (thanks for providing links!), voted Flight 2000 based on playfield features. Would be happy with most of the others, and Trident would've been my next vote.

Building multiball and getting it is great in this game. BLASTOFF!!

The rarity of Star Gazer should be considered by all. Stern Electronics made some great early tables. Sad to see that Split Second and Big Game aren't options, but still, great list of Stern games.

Flight 2000 looks like a great game but it's got to be SEAWITCH for me!

Speed... Sound... Art...

So cool:

Having played most of these in Visual Pinball I can only second what many have said that they are all great tables and I would be happy to buy them all. Having to choose it is between Flight 2000 and Seawitch and I have gone floor Flight because of the layout, gate setup, etc. If no one has tried Seawitch before I strongly recommend you try unclewilly's Seawitch Full screen VP table and import his hires night mod textures to get a taster.

That is a really cool video. Such a groovy machine.

I really liked Nine Ball when I played it, so I voted for that. But most of the tables in that list look great, so I'm fine with whatever wins.

 

[Sinistar]

Catacombs VS Seawitch based on replies , I went with the Witch , because of the video on youtube I saw last year.

 

[Rudy Yagov]

I think I'm going with Flight 2000. Seawitch would be my second choice. Still wish Lightning was an option, though.

Can't honestly say I'm a fan of Catacomb. It's ok, but I just didn't get a lot out of it when I played it.

I really struggled between Seawitch & Star Gazer, I voted Seawitch. Since we may not have Fathom for a while, I just love this art & color scheme, sooo pretty. You can't go wrong with Star Gazer either, & we'd finally get some nice boobies on a game! I know Flight 2000 will probably win the poll for some reason. That game is fine, but is overrated IMHO. Gameplay gets repetitive fast, & the art is kind of boring.

Flight 2000 ... All day everyday.

 

[JoshuaKadmon]

I love Galaxy and Flight 2000, but Catacomb takes it for me.

I also just received the latest newsletter, and it sounds like Centaur and Pin*Bot are next. Based on the clue, wouldn't y'all agree?

 

[Mk pinball fan]

This was a tuff one! I went with Catacomb! Has anyone out there played this one? It looks interesting!

I don't know since there are a crazy amount of Bally & Williams titles that came out through the 80's. I thought Centaur was gonna be in the June pack or later, but maybe I'm wrong. The numbers I think do work out right though, so I wouldn't be surprised if this is it. I still think there are a ton of other tables that should be released ahead of Pin-Bot, but I won't complain.

 

[DopedToInfinity]

I haven't played any so I chose Sea Witch as that upper-right flipper and big loop looks pretty cool.

I've played it a few times. Outside of the backglass gimmick I think its just pretty average.

 

[Bass Mummy]

Never had a chance to play any of these, but I watched videos of each one before coming down on it.

It was hard for me to decide between Flight 2000 and Seawitch, but ultimately it was Flight 2000 for me.
