Pinballz in Austin TX
« on: December 18, 2011, 03:32:40 PM »
Last night I went to this giant arcade here in Austin that has about a hundred pinball machines. Not being a pinball connoisseur I gravitated towards those that were familiar bands, tv shows. Played Kiss, Simpsons, Tommy - The Musical. Saw this late-era Guns N' Roses machine. Complete with Gilby Clarke and Dizzy Reed!

I find KISS Pinball disappointing, but it does come from a simpler era.

Pinball, for me, starts and ends with Cyclone, which was in the student lounge.
I really don't appreciate your sarcastic, anti-comedy tone, Bro!

I assume a blindfold and earplugs are required to play the "Tommy" machine.

And you know where to put the cork.

Try the original Black Knight game. The first two tier game in the game.
