After a discussion tonight with my lad - just a few thnigs why Centaur did, and still does - kick ass
1. The amazing artwork on both pf and backglass - may only be three colours,but boy, does it work really well - not many better than this
2.The attract mode - smacking multiple balls around on its onwn would get ANYONES attention back then, or today
3. Underplayfield launch - great design
4. With 5 ball multiball - a feature that didn't become the "norm"until , what the early 90's
5.The ruleset explanation - hitting the flipper button out of game, it sows and says - what to shoot for - phenominal feature back then
6.In line drops - yes, not rare at the time,but a mega cool feature aond one of the reasons, back in the day I ordered a MET LE not a pro
7.Last, but by no means least, the absolutley amazing, phenominal waaay beyond owt else sound and speech , still awesome nealry forty years on
I feel honoured to own this cool game, and even more so to have helped severely progress onwards a mates game, that sadly, he never got to see fully work
RIP Nigel, gone but forever in my,and other pinheads minds
I do like Fathom and Medusa, but to me they are not at same level IMO, tho , one day will have to own a Medusa
