[QUOTE="DA5ID, post: 215871, member: 4693"] These older machines ARE fun - both SS and em- it's just harder to give them the attention they deserve when they are placed next to or compared to a shiny newer table out in the wild. We have the 71' Bally Star Trek at the lodge I belong to, we usually play four player and have a blast every time - it's a fun table IRL. I have really started to appreciate them more since the guys in my pinball league have explained the rules and strategies to me for these older tables. So for me it's a combo of a reasons why I want these older tables included in TPA - historical preservation among them. But I think the enjoyment comes from a better understanding of the tables rulesets and strategies, definitely competition, and also by not comparing them to newer machines. They are a different breed of pin altogether. [/QUOTE]
