[QUOTE="Epsilon, post: 214526, member: 381"] This is an interesting exercise. So much of my pinball experience has been of the virtual variety (especially in the last few years) that it's hard to remember sometimes. I'm sure I played a handful of machines when I was a little kid but didn't really remember or take note because back then it was just something to occasionally do when I wasn't playing or watching others play video games. I didn't really start to take notice of pinball until I stumbled across a Cactus Canyon in a movie theater when I was 16 or so, and really coming to appreciate the complexity and skill involved in modern pinball. By then, it was basically too late, as we all know. But here are the machines I know I've played in real life, either on location in random bars/arcades and some of them from a rich person's store that sells pinball machines at exorbitant prices but lets you just walk in and play for free to test them out. Attack From Mars Cactus Canyon Cue Ball Wizard Fish Tales Medieval Madness Monster Bash No Good Gofers Road Show Tales of the Arabian Nights Terminator 2: Judgment Day The Addams Family Theatre of Magic Twilight Zone Whitewater That's really not as many as I thought. There are quite a few others I've played that aren't in TPA (yet.) Most notably, The Getaway: High Speed II. But I'm realizing now that I played a lot of more recent Stern tables that haven't made it into TPA as well. Quite a bit of Terminator 3, The Simpsons Pinball Party, and Lord of the Rings, in particular. [/QUOTE]
