Just played Dr. Dude at Local Heroes on St. Laurent.
Flippers were a bit weak, but it was definitely playable.
Best part was pricing, 1$ for 3 credits with 5 balls a game.

The gift of gab does not work. (typical howison). The IJ4 at Silver City was redone (cleaned and shopped) and plays 100%.

You mean "wiped down with a dirty rag"?

No actually IJ4 looks and plays like new. I couldn't believe it myself as most "regent" maintained machines are poorly maintained. Their tech Alex did a great job on it, too bad they don't take care of their other machines like that. I went and played Appolo 13 today at Don Gamble and it played perfect as well. It was dirty though and had a couple lights out. Also played Who Dunnit at Merivale Bowling Lanes and it looked and played like new (the best shape I have ever seen a Howison game in). I found Who Dunnit pretty boring however and managed to get all 4 Hi-scores and Roof champion in my first 4 games, not very challenging as I am not the best player.

Played Wheel of Fortune at the Colliseum and it plays perfect but is very dirty. Also went to McArthur and played Whitewater and Golden Eye. WW has a problem with the top ball eject as the ball comes out after 10 tries and screws up the ball sequence, needs to be repaired asap. Golden Eye was playable but the left flipper is kinda weak. Back glass display is starting to go as well.

Tried the 2 at Orleans Bowling Alley tonight. TZ was dirty and the left flipper is %?#** up. TSPP has a busted plunger. Says 5 credits for $2 and I only got 4. Repairs needed!!! Went to UB this afternoon and Geoff's Monopoly and JM were in great shape.

Rumour has it, there is going to be an Iron Man at O'Connors Pub (Kanata) tomorrow  
Wish I could be there to try it out.

Played dr dude at local heroes (after being misinformed about a lotr at lazerquest) and the flippers are far to weak to make the ramp. After 10 direct shots up the ramp I finally got it. You have to work up some momentum for sure! I kept winning free games, and not being one to pass on free pinball, reluctantly kept playing. I took off with 3 or 4 credits left on the machine (let someone else get trapped in mediocre, poorly maintained pinball)

Anyone know where lotr went?

Noticed the Road Show was removed from Carleton Icehouse as well.  Just one vid left.

IM is @ O'Connor's pub.   Great game and can't beat beer & pinball...

Local Heroes in Kanata has Demolition Man.  I never had a chance to play it but over all it looked pretty good... except for the JM apron with instructions on how to use the claw.

Not anymore they are out of business.

I found a Addams Family at the movie theater in the mall connected to Costco in Gatineau.

Dirty, upper flipper is WEAK, inserts in mansion are a bit raised, other than that, seemed to play ok.

That is Rochs machine from Henrys Amusements. I wish he took better care of his pins, you can't even make the side ramp shot with that flipper.
