[QUOTE="Mark W**a, post: 114068, member: 1196"] This thread is all about the best of the rest; the top tables that are amazing but didn't quite make the top 10 of each of their respective polls. It's a shame too because the Williams and Bally official polls were jam packed with classic and amazing tables, it was literally impossible for all the best tables to make top ten. Since, well, there were more than 10 tables that were clearly top tier in each poll. So this thread is best of the rest: tables that just missed the top 10, but are totally awesome radical and bodacious and worth doing. You can add in any table that you think is worthy, each one you list counts as a "vote" in an unofficial sense of course. The only criteria for listing a table that you feel is worthy of the main list is that it cannot have made the top 10 of our respective official polls. So in other words, Black Rose, World Cup, Who Dunnit etc. aren't going to be part of this list since those all made top 10 in their respective official polls. So far here are my pics, in order of what I feel is the best of the rest. You can follow this format and you can list as many as you like. Let's start: 1: Banzai Run 2: Jack*Bot 3: High Speed 4: Hurricane 5: No Fear 6: Fathom 7: Embryon 8: Swords of Fury 9: Big Guns 10: Bad Cats 11: Truck Stop 12: Comet 13: Hot Tip 14: Sorcerer Bonus: Games from Manufacturers that aren't a part of Pinball Arcade: Big Bang Bar Breakshot Kingpin Pinball Magic Al's Garage Band goes on a World Tour For Reference, here are the top 10 lists from our official polls: Electro-Mechanical 1) Wizard (Bally, 1975) 2) Spirit of 76 (Gottlieb, 1975) 3) Centigrade 37 (Gottlieb, 1977) 4-T) Atlantis (Gottlieb, 1975) 4-T) Royal Flush (Gottlieb, 1976) 6) Space Mission (Williams, 1976) 7) Surf Champ (Gottlieb, 1976) 8) Hokus Pokus (Bally, 1975) 9) Abra Ca Dabra (Gottlieb, 1975) 10) Fast Draw (Gottlieb, 1975) Williams 1) Fish Tales (1992) 2) The Getaway : High Speed II (1992) 3) Red & Ted’s Road Show (1994) 4) Bram Stoker’s Dracula (1993) 5) Black Knight 2000 (1989) 6) Earthshaker (1989) 7) Diner (1990) 8) Junk Yard (1996) 9) F-14 Tomcat (1987) 10) Cyclone (1988) Bally 1) Black Rose (1992) 2) World Cup Soccer (1994) 3) Judge Dredd (1993) 4) WHO dunnit (1995) 5) Safe Cracker (1996) 6) Xenon (1980) 7) The Party Zone (1991) 8) Corvette (1994) 9) Eight Ball Deluxe (1981) 10) Indianapolis 500 (1995) Premium Licensed 1) Indiana Jones : The Pinball Adventure (Williams, 1993) 2) The Simpsons Pinball Party (Stern, 2003) 3) The Lord of the Rings (Stern, 2003) 4) Star Wars (Data East, 1992) 5) Doctor Who (Bally, 1992) 6) Jurassic Park (Data East, 1993) 7) The Shadow (Bally, 1994) 8) Back to the Future (Data East, 1990) 9) Guns ‘N Roses (Data East, 1994) 10) The Who’s Tommy Pinball Wizard (Data East, 1994) Stern/Data East/Sega 1) Tales from the Crypt (Data East, 1993) 2-T) Monopoly (Stern, 2001) 2-T) Rollercoaster Tycoon (Stern, 2002) 4) Adventures of Rocky and Bullwinkle and Friends (Data East, 1993) 5) High Roller Casino (Stern, 2001) 6) NASCAR (Stern, 2005) 7) Time Machine (Data East, 1988) 8) Sharkey’s Shootout (Stern, 2000) 9) Seawitch (Stern, 1980) 10) Viper Night Drivin' (Sega, 1998) [/QUOTE]
