And when I did play, I couldn't really bump properly with the two gun things in the way. Nevertheless, given your recommendation (Pet3r), I gave the table the attention it deserves. And I can say it is actually a very fun game, and I think it has some very novel scoring. I like how there is a good balance of risk and reward, the better you play on the way through add into higher scores down the way (the a quick asteroid hit for $20M, the neutral zone, usage of artifacts in the final frontier, the time rift mission that adds value and time as you hit your shots). There is even a bit of a MM/AFM central target that doesn't dominate the game (making usage of the DMD and the center hole). This is an amazing table. I'd put it above MB. The only potential downside (although it isn't really one) is that the game is heavily reliant on the final frontier to set the high score. While this may seem to be a downside, good gameplay within the missions set you up to get more bang out of your Final Frontier time. The whole game is kinda like setting up for the big battle at the end, which is kinda cool. This means that you really don't want to time out the modes (if you want to get the HUGE score). Very good game, and this is coming from someone who was originally stand-offish of the theme.</blockquote>
