[QUOTE="Matt McIrvin, post: 24953, member: 590"] It's really a matter of taste. The IGN reviewer seems to like relatively complex DMD tables; Monster Bash is another one of those, with a design in some ways reminiscent of Medieval Madness, though it's significantly easier. They might like Cirqus Voltaire and Creature from the Black Lagoon as well, though Creature's ruleset is shallower than Monster Bash. Black Knight and Gorgar are relatively simple, early solid-state tables, of similar vintage to Black Hole. Funhouse is comparable in complexity to Bride of Pinbot, but Funhouse has a more balanced ruleset and is generally fiendishly clever; for some reason it never quite grabbed me in Pinball Hall of Fame, but in its TPA incarnation it's one of my favorites. Of the recent DLC tables, the only one I'd really consider skipping for now is Black Knight, just because the bugs in the emulation actually hurt gameplay (though I do like Black Knight, and a really solid version, such as we might get when the table goes to ROM emulation, would be a wonderful thing). But on the consoles it's going to be bundled with Creature from the Black Lagoon, a fun table that is well worth your money for the whole pack. [/QUOTE]
