[QUOTE="Actionball, post: 8215, member: 527"] Of the Lawlor Tables (not counting Stern) I have the least playtime on Banzai Run, Earthshaker and TZ. So I can't really comment too much on them. He does tend to make very similar games, my personal take is that Addams Family is the best version of Whirlwind there is. But the general knock about how his games dont flow is not really that accurate. His games don't flow for 95+% of players, if you can make his games sing though there is nothing faster or more rewarding. Getting a 8 or 10 in a row combo on say the Theater loop in TOM is all well and good but it doesn't have that heart stopping speed and split second precision of a WW 3 way combo or 4 way combo on Addams. Or running up the short upper loop to open the trapdoor in Funhouse. They don't HAVE to play start stop start stop, its riskier to make them flow but I want the sirens that they almost never hear in the pizza parlor to go off, over and over and over :) [/QUOTE]
