I would like to have your top worse pin... Just for the fun. Could be the look in general or a very bad game play... My choices are Vampire this machine is the worse looking pinball ever made (I don't want to offence anybody by the way). Four Million BC is very close to this one in my own opinion. What about Raven? hummm could be there as well... Again this is for fun!

SW: EP 1 Killed the most promising new pinball platform in recent years. Killed the best manufacturer of pinballs ever. Looks terrible, plays terrible, based on one of the worst movies ever.

For me, its gotta be a toss up between Gottlieb's Circus and Genie. To be fair, any time I've played these pins, theres always been something shot on it. But anyways, these are THE largest, widest and slowest, nap-inspiring pins I've ever played.
And sorry for the inevitable sour grapes from Circus and Genie lovers!

Worst, or worst looking? I rather focus on gameplay, and separate by era.
EM: Jubilee. There is practically nothing to shoot at!!!! Only that horseshoe with the captive balls! And to top it off, beside both flippers is an ejector that shoots right at the horseshoe... so the flippers are barely needed! And considering what came out around then, like 4MBC and Fireball (multiball, zipper filppers, skill shot), this thing is downright horrible. A local dealer near my home has one and can't even sell it.
SS: tie between Pokerino and Super Orbit. Booooooooooring.
DMD/P2K: SWE1. I agree with Jon... I have always said it... Playing that pin is like playing a commercial for a bad, overly-hyped movie. No ball flow, as it is ALWAYS stopped to show you a bit of the movie. RFM does this too, but at least the animation is funny... and that stupid neon. Yeah... I know... it is a signature of a popular and well loved designer. But I can't stand it. Just plain dumb.

No way!
I can't speak for Genie owners but my Circus didn't play slow at all. Did you try mine at the Toronto Pinball show? 27" legs upfront and cranked levellers on 28.5" legs on the back. Unfortunately, a fuse blew and a switch broke in transit so it wasn't playing 100%. Mike Hanley bought it from me and can now be enjoyed at the Church of the Silverball ... I hope, assuming he has it set up.
Go to the Church, play my old Circus, enjoy and recant, Stan! RECANT!
Bleeeeeaaaaaarrrrrrrgh!
