What's NOT to love about this title?
(seriously - it sux)

I suppose the next thing you were going to say is that Jack O Trades (or whatever the name was) you recently acquired is the far superior game?
Please....

I have an Attack From Mars and Indiana Jones. Balls going straight down the middle are a constant problem on AFM and those targets are twice as far away than on Indy. The problem is the AFM targets are straight on. The targets on IJ are at an angle. I never have any issue with the ball going straight down the middle on IJ.
You never answered what you meant by "disgusting animations"? There's nothing sexual and all the other animations are done very well. Are you speaking of the "Choose Wisely" mode? When you pick the wrong grail and the Nazi melts? That's too hard core for you? Jeeesh.
Xiaou2:
I agree. Not very often to get a ball to go right down the center from the drop targets
on Indiana.
The game you played must have been poorly leveled and or the flippers in disparate
need of rebuild / adjustment.
As for the DMD.. Not sure what your expecting. Its a DMD! Not a color LCD. You
barely get to look at, unless you are watching someone else play... or are playing a
video mode.
The modes themselves are cool.
- Choose the correct Cup / Shuffle game
- Move and Shoot the baddies with your gun game
- The mine cart ride. Steer cart to freedom. Dont turn into boarded up passages.
The mine cart is awesome. Very difficult cause its very fast.
Shooting the baddies section is fun, but seems a little too cheap. Too easy for the
baddies to win. The shell game with the cup is decent. Really have to focus to
keep from losing it.
Not many Pins have decent backbox games. This one has 3, and it has all the other
mode animations.

I'll try a 4th time...
What do you mean by disgusting animations?
ChadTower:
The DMD games are exactly what I don't like about IJ. If I wanted to play a two button monochrome game I'd spend $1 on a gen 1 Game Boy.
