Yeah it plays great, but is a little hard to tell it has an upper playfield do to the outdated graphics. I actually run the FP version on my cab do to the better graphics. If Scapino's table could just get a facelift it would be awesome.

 

I should say that I personally play the Unclewilly converted table myself, love all the sounds and lighting effects, but when friends come over they want good graphics, over substance.

alot of the discussion is centered in the 80s and up.....i played real PB in the 70s and early 80s....the tables i remember playing are in my sig.....alot of the 70's single level EMs were great.....PB evolved in the 70s......drop targets, levers, and spinners were created....the PB wizards new what they were doing....i converted alot of VP6 from irpinball.org to FS...they play fine in any vp9.....if you want a challenging table rotate and do the normal conversion tweaks to FS on "kickoff" or "quaterback" at irpinball.org 70s tables......watch out for the double flippers.....this would be a good table to update.

I could have been smart, but I never learned anything by being smart!

I would have to say Elektra, but it's like picking the best player on the all-star team.  Centaur is a really close second... but Embyon... tough one.
