highspeed(1986)- one of my top 3 tables ever!

[budtki@verizon.net]

thank you so much farsight!--you just blew me away with your 3D upgrades, it's really an unbelievable experience! and now i hear that highspeed will be coming out really soon! it just don't get anybetter then that. a while ago there was a poll to find out what tables might be thought of to add to the TPA, i was kind of bummed when the talk seemed in favor of highspeed(the getaway)..i am so stoked that you guys decided to do the 1986 version instead! this table had me hooked for so long, it's an awsome machine and will be incredable in 3D! thanks again! i do have a question though, on certain tables(since the megapatch) i seem to experience so jutter during multiball, and it happens on mostly the immensley detailed machines like monsterbash and only a couple others. my samsung has adjustments to supposedly correct the problem, but they don't seem to work. any suggestions?

I really love this table, so far it's one of my favorites in season 3, this and fish tales ^^

You'll probably get more answers if you post your threads in the PS3 section, or use the existing topics. I'm going to move this thread there.

Table is ok. Not one of my favorites. Maybe it will grow on me.

when can we expect - or at least hope for - release of hs and whodunnit to ps3? eagerly awaiting awesomeness... can play 'em on my ipod, sure, but it's so damn small, and cramps my hands.

Black Knight 2000 and Who Dunnit will be out most likely in late May, while High Speed and Junk Yard will be out in late August.

You can start hoping for their release any time you want.

I have actually already started wishing for the BK 2000 release.

I've yet to play it, but for as much hype as this table has gotten, and for any many requests for it as I've seen, it sure looks pretty average on TPA.

Again, this is based on looks, but so far it looks to be the weakest table this season so far. I can't wait to try it out, hopefully I'm wrong.

The biggest thing for this table is its history.

According to the International Pinball Database, it did a lot of firsts.

"First pinball to play a complete song."
"First Williams pinball game to use alpha-numeric displays."
"First use of Auto Percentaging (for replay scores)."
"First Jackpot available only during multiball."
"First use of broken switch compensation programming."
"First SS game with operator report."
"It was also the first to have a multiball jackpot that grew and held-over game to game."

Plus, when played right, it truly flows.

Damn straight. There's no greater feeling than stringing more than two orbit shots on this game (IRL) in a row. You almost get scared that a piece of the playfield will shatter if you mistime it!
