I'd love to mate but it might prove a hard sell telling the Mrs and daughter that they are no longer going to Disneyworld.
When you going?

the music pins that have been in there before have never been great earners

Will be interesting to see. New screen is really good.
Toy box is a great toy.
And most people in US who play it seem to enjoy it .
Looking forward to put my money into it
Which music pins were in there before?

Old thread but I'm going again next week, which is a 5 hour trip for me so the beer and pins make it worth it. I am a craft beer ****** so trying all the beers plus losing too much money on the games is something I look forward to.
I must be the ideal customer, if only I lived closer, crap at pinball but can't stop playing it and can drink an awful lot. I too would be interested in a TILT glass. Regarding beer costs, that's just how much these beers cost, maybe it's not a terrible idea to carry some cheaper lager bottles, even if it's just BrewDog. I certainly wouldn't want a tap to be wasted on Carling or whatever.

I don't even drink beer and was pointed at the most inoffensive beer in the list when asked which one a wuss would be able to withstand easiest - I felt that I was being a spoilsport not partaking when such a range was available.
I thought it was worth the cash! If beer is your thing, not sure why you'd have complaints for craft beer in the middle of Birmingham!

Even more reasons to go!
Just got highest score of the day on Dialed In at Tilt. Happy with that being only my fourth game.
It’s disgusting. Work in Birmingham and haven’t made it to tilt yet. Will see if I can drag the team over for a night sometime soon!
Just spent the weekend in Birmingham and managed to spend an hour and a half at Tilt (With the wife who doesn't and never has played pinball 
)
Got there around 3.30pm and it was quite packed, but still managed to get straight on a game.
Played AS, DI and the Hobbit. Hoped to play GOT as well but had to leave.
AS, seemed good but couldn't hear any of the music/call outs so didn't really appreciate it. Had good flow though. The owners may want to check the settings as put a £1 in and got 4 games.
DI, had a few games and quite enjoyed it even if I didn't know what was going on. Got on the today's high score for 1 & 3
The Hobbit,didn't really gel with it even though I seemed to have a few good game. Seemed to have muliball after multiball. Just seems to be a Huge open playfield with everything located around the edges.
Didn't play Star Wars as I have one but wanted to try the pro. One thing I would comment on though following the comments at the recent event in Manchester is that most of the other machines seemed to have more attention than DI. Only saw 3 people on it for a quick go the whole time I was in there. I would expect themed machines grab the attention of non pinheads over gameplay and rules. Saying that though MM seemed to be being played the whole time. Would be interesting to see the audits from the machines at Tilt or a leader board for which games get played most.
Will look out for a DI or AS in a few years on the 2nd hand market to try in a home environment.

Nice score of the day. Did you have to get there very early in the morning? ;-)
I turned the daily scores off my DI, gets annoying having to put your name in so iften. I can see it being good for a sited machine though.

Me and my boy visited tilt for the first time tonight
Its only a 15 min train ride from where i live so now i know its there we will be visiting a lot more often
Sadly Cant say that we enjoyed the newer pins as much as the older stuff
I was dissapointed with gb and i wanted to like it
Only complaint
Would be that the volume is set too low
On most of the machines which kind of spoils the experience a bit
We are both noobs though played a lot at shows and arcade club but no real pinball skills
Which may make a difference with the newer machines deeper rulesets

I've only been there once and couldn't hear the machines which kills it for me too, I guess it's a coffee shop first and foremost so a balancing act. It wouldn't hurt to ask them to turn them up slightly, they can only say no. GB has fantastic sound, playing it without is pointless to me.
To be honest this applies to most shows, meets & bars where 2 or more games are running in close proximity with competing audio. It’s a double-edged sword.

They say, if we turn one up, we'll have to turn another up, so it won't make any difference, there will just be a massive noise with no clearly distinguishable sounds!
