[QUOTE="Sean DonCarlos, post: 135482, member: 152"] I'll join you in hating on X-Men and Avengers, but AC/DC ranks up there with Lord of the Rings and The Simpsons' Pinball Party. It [I]looks[/I] simple, because Ritchie wanted it to be a fast "flow" machine and you can't do that if you've got everything and the kitchen sink on the playfield. And you can play it that way if you want and have a grand old time. Or you can look a little deeper and discover Lyman's layer-upon-layer-upon-layer-cake of a ruleset, and suddenly a whole world of strategic play opens up before you. Do I go to the lower playfield right away or do I risk another bell shot to get 2X scoring first? Do I go with Thunderstruck because it's next in the Album Multiball rotation for song bonus or do I give up those potential points and go with a less deadly song? I've been playing Highway to Hell for a while and jacked the song shot scoring up, do I stay with it or is it time to change the song? And so on and so forth... Plus, the ability to choose the mode you want and play for as long as you want is very refreshing. I wouldn't want every machine this way, but it's nice to be free from the tyranny of the "X shots in Y seconds" timed modes for a change. Read here ([URL="http://digitalpinballfans.com/showthread.php/4761-For-Those-About-to-Rock-AC-DC-Premium-LE-v1-65-Ruleset"][B]For Those About to Rock: AC/DC Premium/LE v1.65 Ruleset[/B][/URL]) and then give AC/DC another try. I think you'll like it better. [/QUOTE]
