[QUOTE="Sean DonCarlos, post: 48886, member: 152"] I'm assuming you're referring to non-wizard-mode multiballs. My favorites are the "classic" ones from the 90s tables: dramatic lightshow buildup, usually with ominous/exciting music and sounds. For some reason most of the modern Sterns just don't do the same job of it. But if I had to pick a few favorites: [LIST] [*][I]Medieval Madness's Multiball Madness (4-ball):[/I] "Joust!" "Catapult!" "Peasant!" "Damsel!" "Troll!" "MUUUUUUUUULLLLTTTIIIIIBBBBAAAAAAAAALLLLL MMMAAAAAAAAAAAADDDDDNNNEESSSSSSSSSSS!!!!" The 4-ball version is just so gloriously over the top. (Castle Multiball start sequence isn't bad, either.) [*][I]Scared Stiff's Crate Multiball:[/I] Elvira's terror of lawyers and salesmen never seems to get old. [*][I]Twilight Zone's Multiball:[/I] Don't touch the door! "Don't touch the door! Don't-touch-the-door! Don't-touch-the-door! Don't..."-BOOM! [*][I]The Addams Family's Showtime Multiball:[/I] Mostly for historical/nostalgic reasons. [*][I]FunHouse's Midnight Multiball:[/I] Because you start it by putting your ball in Rudy's mouth. Just what the bastard deserves. [*][I]F-14 Tomcat's Multiball:[/I] Because if the thought of 4-ball multiball on F-14 Tomcat doesn't inspire a certain feeling of alarm, you've never played F-14. [/LIST] If you are allowing wizard modes, then Twilight Zone's Lost in the Zone, Attack from Mars's Rule the Universe, Scared Stiff's Monster Multiball, and Medieval Madness's Battle for the Kingdom all have a lot going for them. Most anticlimactic multiball start goes to Doctor Who...hardly any light show, just a quote from the Daleks and the other two balls release without any sort of fanfare. [/QUOTE]
