[QUOTE="nstalkie, post: 135100, member: 3041"] So I guess it's about tables which you didn't like before, yet like now ? (and the other way around). Not tables that made you change your mind about TPA overall ? Creature from the Black Lagoon. I played it in arcade quite a bit. I only bought tables I had played before on TPA at first (now I buy them all, wish I had bought season packs, cause it's expensive :)). This one didn't get too much play from me though. I didn't think it was that interesting and it seemed like a grind to play (shoot left ramp until max -> center lane to collect -> rince -> repeat). I don't know if I knew the full ruleset back when I played it in the arcade days (I think I did not, atleast not how to get the jackpot / super jackpot). Just bought it for the nostalgia factor. Then PS3 tournament comes around and the table was one of them. My previous highscore was something like 400mil. I played a grind of a game and got 2bill. When mentioning it on the forums here, I also mentioned I never got a super jackpot ever, to which someone said: "you would get much higher scores then if you learn to play the multiball better". So after the tournament, I decided to spend some more time with this table to really learn the snackbar shot (every time I went for it, I drained my ball ... I remember in the arcade it was the same thing). I learned how to properly make the shot and it really made me fall in love with the table as I could now go for that super jackpot. Since then I have achieved a roll-over on that table (> 10bill.). (which doesn't get registered properly on the local leaderboard unfortunately). Can't say I really had tables that I loved, but after TPA didn't like anymore. My favourite IRL table of all time is twilight zone and I do think the game is a big grind and too easy on TPA. But it still doesn't really break my enjoyment of it. I bought TPA because I saw that this table was in there, too bad my other favourite IRL tables that are still missing, have a low chance of getting in (Indiana Jones, Addam's family, Jurassic Park, Lethal Weapon 3). (Arcade times are long gone here ... pinballs disappeared in my city since a long time). [/QUOTE]
