Let's start off with a debate submission.

Debate/Comments:

Nobody special here just an avid pin player for over 40 years. My favorite game is a Bally Centaur. I have had 3 of these machines (still have a Centaur II) it is a players game for sure. Anyway the reason for my contact with you is this. I would really like to see the Cunning Development team license some of the old titles from Bally/Williams and Gottlieb, develop them into games and make them available only by subscription on the net (Internet Pinball Arcade ?). After a title has been played enough to pay for it's development costs ( 5 or 10 centa a game) then make that title available for sale by download only. Kind of a pay for play. If the titles never get enough action then they never are up for sale. Let the public vote as to which are their favorites, tally the votes only produce maybe 10 to 25% of the titles voted on. I like the PP series but would like to see their digital technology used on some of the great real pinball games. I was disappointed to hear Williams/Bally is only going to make pins in the Pinball 2000 series.

The promotional material for Fantastic Journey only makes a mention of a PC and PSX version, no mention of a mac version, have a look at the announcement on Empire Interactives homepage. I don't know for sure though if there will be a mac version or not, haven't received any answer on my inquiries.

Otherwise LittleWing finally released the english version of Angel Egg, I haven't yet tried this pinball but I've heard only good things about it! Have a look at an old preview of it with some comments on the table.

By the way, if you haven't already seen it, have look at the Art Cows website, quite neat! Oh, see if you can find the mysterious alien cow in the virtual cow gallery! :)

Haven't really got so much more to write right now, so...

Happy Flipping!
