[QUOTE="Mega, post: 853, member: 53"] Everything said above is true... but I think there is more to it... at least for me. I think the sense of energy with this table is just one of the best. For example, when you start Multiball, it doesn't just spit out a couple more balls, it has this huge "wind up" with thunder, lightning, and whirring up sound that really gets your adrenaline pumping right as it spits out the balls. This link will take you right to that moment: [url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PmnPmXlo9uY&hd=1&t=4m33s[/url] Make sure you have good speakers/headphones cranked up. Then just imagine being there and the bass is enough to feel in your chest. And even while the multi-ball is going the table is really active along with a big electro-magnet in the cetner called "The Power" that will randomly shift the direction of the balls, which keeps you on your toes. And "Showtime" is just one example. All-around great design on just about every bonus round this game had. It also was the first table I played (probably one of the first ever) that had such bonus rounds where the game would start up a mode and then give you clear audio/visual cues as to what you were supposed to be shooting for. So it was a fairly easy table to learn. I was never a fan of the Addams Family show nor movie... but regardless, I just LOVED playing that pinball table. I also think it has been very influential on many of the newer tables. Considering that it's the most successful table ever, that shouldn't surprise anyone. Every table after it wanted to capture the magic. Which is not a bad thing, but I honestly have never played another table no matter how much newer and more high-tech that raised my heart rate like it did when I'd unlock something or accomplish a big bonus. Even the way it would "scream" at you to "Hit the Jackpot!!!" and then you'd hit it and it would say even more frantically: "Triple Jackpot!!!!!!" etc. Just so well done. I recall the first time I got the tour the mansion bonus like it was yesterday, and it was over 20 years ago. I got so excited when it yelled "Fiiiiifty Miiiilion!!" and then started up the entire mansion.
