Two new pins
Attended a gamenight at Lemmy’s on saturday after having missed two previous in a row.
The two new pinball machines, Doctor Who and Theatre of Magic were designed and built in the early nineties. Both of them were nice enough to play, though I never really got a good game going with either. The latter is packed with shots and collectibles, and the former with a nicely elaborated lock-scheme.
On the console-side missed all NHL-action, and participated in Warioware as little as was polite - Nintendo really ought to come up something newer in the low barrier of entry party game-front. Brought in the original Scene It! movie trivia game, which was both respected and vilified - the games do drag on a bit, and are not of much interest to anybody with less than a casual interest in films. The newest of the new entries was Pacific Right the sequel to Motor Storm, one of the launch games for PS3. The intervening year or so has been used well by the producer - this time there’s more variety in the track selection, and most importantly a functional split-screen multiplayer mode. Managed to suck at it less than usual in driving games.
