      I used to feel the same way. The premium/LE are identical as far as gameplay and toys.
      The LE just has some extra polish that doesn’t affect the game such as a mirrored backglass, some side art blades.
      The pro is no bells and whistles but from an operator standpoint, you’re not getting pinball machines for any other reason than to make a profit.
      So if you can save 5 grand, you’re going to take it.

    Godzilla is more than deserving of the top spot. I've never played a better pinball game and i'll be joyously surprised if i ever do. Personally, i think Avengers Infinity Quest is a better game than Iron Maiden and Deadpool and deserves a spot on the top 10, and that Rush deserves an honorable mention. Iron Maiden won't pass the test of time, in my opinion.

    Of "All Time"??? You mean of "recent time". These newer models wouldn't even exist had it not been for the legendary designers and games of the golden age of pinball; 1947-1977. Pinball was not invented, it has a long evolutionary history with key innovations and breakthrough ideas leading to the modern game. Along the way were some very innovative, fun playing, and gorgeous looking models, which didn't contain a single microchip.

      i typically don't end up enjoying things that the general public finds mass appeal in, but Godzilla more than deserves the #1 spot. It's lightyears better than Medieval Madness, Addams Family, Monster Bash, Twighlight Zone, and all the great early 90s games. It's also the best of Keith Elwin's designs. The only thing i disagree with is that Avengers Infinity Quest is a better game than Iron Maiden. I was playing Iron Maiden set to free play a couple of nights ago, and i couldn't help but feel it simply will not pass the test of time.
