Jet Spin

March 23, 2005

Man oh man, if only the future turned out to be like this backglass depicts! Who needs pinball when you have jet powered surfboards and thick-thighed Gordon Morison women? The only thing missing is my finned helmet! Unfortunately, the Artwork on this machine is the most fun thing about it. Don't get me wrong, I like the bull's eye target channel, the roto target with the "hit" light and the Vari-Target is cool too, but it's just not laid out to be that challenging or engaging. Still, it needs to spend some time at the Ju Ju and get it's butt kicked. The bonus makes it easier to get your score up and the Star on the roto wheel coughs up free games when the special is lit. Hmmmm, maybe this is a fun game...I got this one from Steve Murphy, the creator of this web site, he got it from Dan Fontes. The guts on this are complicated so I got it as far as I could and then called Mr Magic (Michael Scott) to finish the job. It works great and should make a fine addition to the lineup.
