Hook

It had been so long since I had seen the movie, so I watched it today. I also remember seeing this table being talked about on here before, and was wondering if it was any good?

Is there any other pirate themed table out there besides this one?

It's ok. Nothing too spectacular, but worth dropping a few quarters into now and then.

There's also:

Pirates of the Caribbean
Black Rose

There's Pirates Of The Carribean, an older pin called Black Rose and an even older EM style pin called Buccaneer. All three are pretty good.
I don't recall ever playing Hook, so I can't give an opinion on that one.


Edit - Jeff beat me to it.

Black Rose, another one I've heard a lot about, but have never played. The art and setup look fantastic! Any chance we might see this in TPA, seeing that it's talked about on here all the time?

I knew about POTC, just forgot about it. I wasn't a big fan of the movies.

Thanks!

Hook isnt very good from what i heard, it seems like the only good strategy for the game is shooting the ramp over and over again.

I see on the ipdb pics that you're not allowed to play this table if you have hooks.

Black Rose was #1 in the Bally poll, so I think we'll see it next year.

As for Hook, while there are no famous faces on the backglass as far as I can see, it's a Spielberg film so it will be pricy. And not really enough fans to justify a crowdfunding, when there are many more popular tables the fans are asking for.

Yeah... Not only that, but the sound is pretty dismal. The game suffers from "BANGARANG" and other repetitive call outs.

Wow, kinda disappointed to hear the comments!

The table still looks pretty cool though, hopefully I'll see it around here one of these days.

Thanks for the opinions!

Like "get the martians", "what's a torso", "Shoot the magic trunk", or "ooh it's ribbed too"

call out's are a part of the DMD/Licensed Era, can't have it both ways, LOL

Black Rose wins for the extra cleavage.

-1 . One shot game, really... no good. Trust me.
