Never played it before - liked it for about two games but now I despise it! The outlanes and the crap in between the fipplers make it an annoying experience!! (IMHO)
The outlanes and "crap" between the flippers are part of what makes WoF one of the best Sterns ever. With a different theme (and finished software) that game could have been really great. But it's the risks Stern took by making the lower playfield a little different that make that game unique and very fun (IMHO). It's too bad Stern refuses to take more of that kind of risk. There was a time when pinball companies weren't afraid to try something different. Pins from the 40's to the 70's often had non-"normal" lower playfields. Innovation never comes from maintaining the status quo. (Sorry for changing this thread's direction.) |

Well hopefully we can decide on a time that everyone can make. I suggest a weekend as most of us are off work then. |
