[QUOTE="Zaphod77, post: 254853, member: 2101"] Yeah, megabonus is the key to high scores. And yes, this exploit works just as well in real life. In fact it was done in a major tournament. It working in TPA is as intended. In fact the tpa version is a little harder because you can't just trap the ball on the upper flipper between shots. That stunt works on some, but not all, real life gladiators machines. ALso on some, but not all, real life gladiators machines, the shot you just hit in calm before the storm unlights so you have to shoot a different one after. this balances the mode, forcing you to play it as intended (flailing the balls around and making as many shots as possible) that said there is a BIG bug. Even when you kill the pop bumpers by holding the flippers in, although the animation does't run anymore, and the sound effect doesn't play, they still fire. This removes your ability to get the ball out of the jets quickly in a timed mode. [/QUOTE]
