[QUOTE="Fuseball, post: 8784, member: 539"] Good point there Brian. Pinball went into a marked decline in ambition and creativity after the initial burst of SS multiball & split level tables. I grew up playing Black Knight, Centaur, Fathom, Haunted House etc. and they took the technological advances that were fuelling the arcade video games of the time and applied them to pinball. The games that came in their wake - Bally tables like Black Pyramid, Goldball & Spy Hunter were a lot simpler and less exciting to play. That back-to-basics approach was only halted by the success of Space Shuttle and High Speed. Even so, quite a few of the System 11 tables are very simplistic. As much as I enjoyed Bad Cats at the time, it's not a patch on Centaur when it comes to frenetic exciting pinball. [/QUOTE]
