Quick note that I arrived home about an hour ago, hopefully Erik and Pieter will be home within an hour too. It was totally great and I would like to thank all involved in making it possible !!!
Great to see Rav and Oll again and meeting some new people like Andrew and Archer
I could never have imagined that I would one time have dinner with the creator of one of my favorite games ......Dropzone. When I mentioned this to him he replied that it was the first time someone said Dropzone instead of Ik+
My favorite videogames of the show: Gravitar. played it quite a lot already when I was working on Erik's machine and at Funspot, but man I love it more and more I play it. Such an elegant game.....no button bashing but control..,,it's all about control.....
Juno First, played it once or twice at Funspot but what a brilliant shooter ! This one had a very nice monitor and the graphics are brilliant and the gameplay smooth. The color effects like explosions somewhat remind me of Jeff Minter's games, maybe he was once inspired by this ?
biggest discovery for me was the wonderful Mad Planets. What brilliant crazy game !! Pretty hard first times but you get the hang of it quickly. A very unique concept and love the cab.
Considering these games I'd say Gottlieb was somewhat underrated BITD and maybe now too...
Having so many pinballs at hand seems like a luxury but it was really quite busy almost all of the time. Must say I was rather unimpressed with AC/DC but I could only give it two quick go's before I was kinda chased away by some pinheads....and.... I am just a casual pin player...
All in all a great experience !!!
