Bally, 1977We always hear about everyone top 5 or 10 most loved or wanted games. Lets hear about your top 5 most hated. Everyone has a bottom of the barrel list and i'm sure it's different for nearly everyone. If you want to include brackets why behind each one, that would be good too. Some things I hate about a game, arn't really about the game overall. No vague answers like >......All EM's or crap like that. Specific titles only please. Number 1. Top most hated to 5th most hated.
I'll go first I guess. I have my top 2 already, but I had to think about top 5.
1. Street Fighter 2 (love the arcade, but holy crap I could not stand this game)
2. X- files (only time i've ever wanted to stop playing a game after ball 2)
3. AFM (i think it's the cheapest looking B/W game ever made. Empty playfield had me pass by it numerous times back in arcade times. Looked empty and boring and still does. )( also the apeshit love for this game, makes me dislike it even more) Econoline of the B/W DMD era.
4. EP1 (mostly because it's episode 1, so the subject matter is terrible to start, but it's so repetitive as well. I love p2k but I so wish this was some other game and done differently)
5. Black Knight.... Worst sounds i've ever heard in a game. most annoying. Gives me an eye twitch.
I don't hate any game
yes, there are games that if I had to pay to play, I would not play them, but I don't hate them
1. No fear
2. AC DC ---the grumbly ritchie voice in both annoys the crap out of me
3. striker xtreme
4. stargate --- Can't stand games that tell you what to shoot at all the time
5. 8 ball deluxe (because i've fixed so many of them i can't stand to even look at them anymore)
1. Red $ox
2. Yankee$
3. Duke Blue Devils
4. Dallas Cowboys
5. Hook
Honorable Mention: Washington Nationals 
Your Orioles championship avatar is looking older than my pinball machines...like '83 old. Go Sox!
Quoted from 27dnast:1. Red Sox
2. Yankees
3. Duke Blue Devils
4. Dallas Cowboys
5. Hook
1) Metallica- Don't care how good the gameplay is, it's just not worth having to listen to their music.
2) AC/DC- As above.
3) South Park- Boring layout, boring objectives, awful artwork and a playfield that looks like it was built in someone's garage. All this from a theme that could have been the basis for an excellent game.
4) Haunted House- Great concept and the artwork, shame about the gameplay.
5) Black Hole- Quite possibly the stupidest ruleset ever conceived. Work towards getting the ball to the lower playfield. If you manage to do that, you'll probably be rewarded by having your ball dumped into the outlane.
I am unable to find 5 pins I truly hate. Even checking my ratings, I could only came up with 3 titles:
- Super Mario Bros. Can't stand the theme, callouts, layout. I know it's unfair and subjective because I have to admit the game is not that bad...
- Pink Panther. 
- Olympic games. You probably never encountered that French "gem". Good for you! This game borrowed some ideas from Centaur. With such good genes, you can't go wrong, right? Wrong... 
Baywatch theme
Lethal weapon theme
Paragon game play
Afm over rated
Avengers it's just crap nothing going on
Avatar, at retail stores
Avatar, on any location
Avatar, at anyones house
Avatar, virtual
Avatar. The only one that I actually found that I hate.
Quoted from musketd:Mustang is a killer game great gameplay
Yeah, sure it is. 
Quoted from oldskool1969:TZ just too easy to get lost in the zone wizard mode
You're a lot better player than me for sure. I've owned mine for almost 4 years and have probably got LITZ (maybe)four times the past year. Its a big deal when I get there, with a three ball game.
It's kind of like donuts. Some donuts are better than others but at the end of the day they're all still donuts. You know?
Quoted from canea:It's kind of like donuts. Some donuts are better than others but at the end of the day they're all still donuts. You know?
Now I have a taste for donuts. Note to self = eat breakfast before coming on pinside.
Wow I'm surprised with the AFM "Hate" posts. I'm OK with the game, but don't love it either.
Rick, you reading this thread? 
(AFMr).
Can't stand Rudy and STTNG. Don't want to see or hear either. I refuse to play at any cost.
NASCAR - will the ball ever drain?
Latest Rolling Stones, except for the bash Mick thing
WPT - never understood it
Roller Coaster Tycoon -shut up...just....shut up
Mustang - drove one for years, but the just doesnt do anything for me
Quoted from pezpunk:oh my god so many wrong opinions.
Spoken correctly--
Incorrect opinions here and there, but opinions are everyone's right.

WPT is outstanding, and my favorite Stern. Learn it, and you may love it.
All shots are a Gamble, like the theme, as you must hit them at the right time, and it has endless shot options, over 100 different mystery awards, and some terrific mini modes. The 3 second triple score shot on the ball return lanes is a game-maker for me. My one Stern keeper.
My five "I despise" games.
Gottlieb: Solar Ride.
Gottlieb: Dragon
Williams: Millionaire.
Stern: TSPP ( I know I am in the minority here, so no need to point it out).
Stern: IndyJ 4. Just plain bad.
Quoted from gooterman:5. 8 ball deluxe (because i've fixed so many of them i can't stand to even look at them anymore)
now that funny 
I like 8 ball deluxe but that's just funny!
I really think a lot of hate comes from not knowing how to play the game and just bashing the ball around for a few games and making an opinion based on theme and the way you feel about the shots. I surely have not liked many games until I learned what to do then most of them got better. WPT is a prime example of a game I hated but there are several people that love it so I must be missing something. Also anyone that hates AFM must not like the price because the theme , call-outs and shots are top notch. It is not rated #3 because it sucks . There is plenty to do and the flow is second to none. I have a lot of parties and pin players and novices always play it non-stop.
Several that have been already mentioned I think are weak are Monopoly, RCT, SX, SG and, Rolling Stones. Pins I also do not care for are TF, X-MEN, and Family Guy.
I don't hate pinball machines, but some that I don't care to play when I see them are
Demolition Man - I just find it boring
Twilight Zone - Too cluttered for my taste.
Creature - Don't like the movie theater theme or shots.
Family Guy - different layout that doesn't work imo
Roller Coaster Tycoon - as someone else stated, just shut the hell up! 
* Any machine with a dead or broken flipper.
* Any machine with a broken ball launch / shooter
* Any machine with non working pop bumpers
* Darling & Jubilee ('73 Williams) I'll let you figure it out.
* Skylab ('74 Williams) Another non-winner, even though space themes are ok with me in general.
* Magnotron / Duotron (played it as a teenager and still don't like it to this day)
* Disco Fever ('78 Williams, with banana flippers, horrible theme, & ugly artwork)
* Eight Ball Champ (voice call-outs & early electronic sounds on this one = horrible)
* Jokerz! ('88 Wiliams) Definitely not a desert island pinball machine to have to live with.)
* Monopoly (rotating mini flipper = annoying)
My apologies for going past 5.
Quoted from trilogybeer:Fuck it !
Safe Cracker ! Fucking sucks , why fucking play a pinball machine just to get to some bullshit board game that fucking sucks .
Simpsons Pinball Party , Fucking boring , did almost everything this game has to offer and it was a motherfucking snooze fest , Fucking 45 minutes of nothing . Fuck this game . Boring .
Twilight Zone , Boring , stop and go , most over rated game ever . Like the Tv show but this game fucking sucks a donkey's dick .
What's wrong, bro? Packers lose? Need a hug?

So you get flack in two treads for wanting to shit on the x-files, one in a thread for a fan thread, and the other with someone new that just got their second game, so you make this thread so you can bitch about it legit....
Don't you have $100k in machines to try to sucker someone with that can occupy your time better with?
That's only 3 Trilogy. Go ahead and get it all out of your system.
Tell us a 4th & 5th that frickin suck iyho.
Edit: typo on the count
Quoted from trilogybeer:Deleted post
JESUS dude. Take it easy. At least they had a chance to win when no one one earth outside of Green Bay thought they had any chance.
