I put some money into a RFM at a rest stop, and in minutes I was
fighting the urge to leave mid game. I just didnt want to waste my
money! I walked away from it before finishing the last ball.
I dont like either RFM or AFM. Boring shots. Poor flow.
Jeff AMN:
That's part of the humor for Attack From Mars. The scoring is intentionally inflated just to add to the whole silliness of the theme.

Now that I understand the absolute joys of old school playfield multipliers, I find them much more enjoyable than newer games that have you mindlessly shoot 1-2 ramps. Nothing beats maxing out the 5x PF multiplier and then just going to town on targets.
On my pin, 150 k is the usual outcome without getting significant bonus multipliers. The best I have done is just shy of 500k. Since I moved the pin to its permanent location, me or the wife can't score for crap. I need to adjust the playfield slope or something.
I assume the score inflations are to encourage non-pin players to dump more money.

Pretty much the only thing I like on those games that you can't get on the earlier SS games is a good lightshow. That's fun. It's not worth an extra $750, though.

Exactly. Good thing my aftermarket CPU maximizes the hell out of the light show possibilities of my 1st gen SS to take care of that problem.
I still want a funhouse just for the visual experience - one of the best visual eye candy pins IMO.
