      I gave it a thumbs down as the video started to feel more and more like just an advertisement instead of a balanced 'buyers experience'. I stopped it at 9 minutes when I was really fed up with it. It might be a cultural thing as Americans are used to watch nothing else but advertisement but in my culture the hate of advertisement packaged as something else is huge.

    Great review Cary. Glad to hear the PB are responsive to issues as well. Played this at Allentown a while ago and the issues sort of marred it but it was Heighway then.

      Hi, the keys for the backbox are on the inside of the coin door. They will be hanging on a little hook right above the service menu buttons. It took me a while to find them, they blend in well.

    The Xeno is a non-issue at this time, v2.2C grabs the ball 9/10 times instead of failing 9/10 times. PB Alien is GOTY, you heard it here first.

      @@CaryHardy :( ours had a post loose and it chipped the play field. One of the bash targets also got so mashed the switch was stuck.
      It’s being played at UK pinfest and we were told by an operator it was open a lot but home use it should be fine.
      Due to the chip being covered up we are trying to get a refund on the deposit.
