[QUOTE="Sumez, post: 48297, member: 1547"] This is one of the few tables I have available locally, and I played it a lot - yet I still suck terrible at it (but I do with most real pinball). Even though it's from '91, it feels very old school (like a real Gottlieb), or at least like an early 80's table. But the feel and theme is really excellently executed. I love super-cheesy humor and terrible 80's raps from each of the characters. The gadgets and mechanics are great, and I love when the all lights go out before the multiball, and you just hear the heart in the background beating. I'm not great friends with the layout of the table though. You need to shoot the ball up to the top rollovers a lot, which will often have the ball drop fast out from the bumpers, directly towards the middle. I know people who can get scores of over 60 million on this table, so I guess I'm just really bad at it, but it definitely tests your nudging skills. At least it's extremely easy to trap the ball, in fact you can always just hold op the flipper when the ball is going down an inlane. The owners of the local table also put a plastic piece inside the left ramp to make it harder to hit correctly, since you could otherwise just keep backhanding that ramp to eventually light the million shot and just keep making millions. I think the theme is a "class reunion" of long deceased people, thus the undead theme (and a werewolf). As far as I heard it was supposed to be a Rocky Horror themed table, but they couldn't get the license, so they just changed the characters. [/QUOTE]
