[QUOTE="brakel, post: 187509, member: 416"] My brother and I used to talk about pinball score inflation. In some ways the higher scores on EM machines could reflect their complexity. On the first solid state games, more digits in the score could reflect that there was more memory in the machine. Once you get to modern tables of 1990 and newer though you see score inflation just for score inflation. The first table to have a million point shot. Then a ten million point shot. Then a hundred million point shot. Then the billion point shot. The shot that made points ridiculous if they weren't already. Its just hype. It doesn't mean anything. Kinda like trophies. ;D [/QUOTE]
