Notable quotes
“rumors suggest that a Brian Eddy normal cornerstone game... a comic book style of Marvel's Venom”
“I just think it's a little surprising to run with Venom. But not terribly surprising... I could see why there would be demand”
“yeah if any game screams we need zombie yeti artwork i kind of think this is it this is his wheelhouse”
“I thought it was very admirable for some individual to gift a brand new pinball machine to a fellow pinhead and a total stranger and remain anonymous... it brought tears to my eyes”
“I only put one game on it, but I got to say so far... I enjoyed shooting it. And I liked the light show and I liked the call outs... they're kind of hokey... so far so good”
“I would love that to be like a thicker Lexian. That would look nicer because that thing was looking cheap flopping around”
“I'd be investing in Chicago Gaming Company if they were public. Because they've got a lot of good stuff going on”
“Cactus Canyon SC Plus was the most popular game thus far, just looking at line and cues”
