I owned Safe Cracker but it also got old.įG has got to be his best flowing game, but the mini pinball in it gets so old and it's not stackable, it immediately takes precedent over any other modes lit in the cellar hole. I owned Road Show for a while but the country theme grated on my nerves. I dislike Adams family and fun house is way over rated in my opinion. While the game was interesting, it was too stop and go for me. His software is usually a miss for me and I think it's why I don't like his games usually. The thing about Pat is that he employs his own software team often and takes over the design and software. I did enjoy roller coaster tycoon when I had that one. I owned safe cracker but it also got old. I owned road show for a while but the country theme grated on my nerves. It's uniquely fast with a ton of interesting shots and a very deep and difficult rule set. I found the rules in ngg too shallow and ended up selling it. My favorite lawlor pins are ngg and ripleys because those are the only ones with decent fast flow. Monopoly has high numbers but is not a great game.įamily Guy/Shrek, good game but the mini pinball gets really old really quick.ĭid I leave any out? None of these are on my must have list. Has Pat created a successful game for Stern? It's going to be interesting to see what the next JJP table is going to be that Pat Lawlor is making! What does the pinside community think about this? and does anyone know any more about the truth behind this? So clearly there seems to be some bad blood between them. Gary replied that he is a good designer and that he would like to have him on the stern team but he's too demanding, asking for too much money, Gary also said, Pat would probably want me to carry his (#*#*) bags in the front door for him as well. One question on the small table was about Pat Lawlor and why was he not working for Stern? (This was before Pat was confirmed on working for Jersey Jack Pinball). after Gary had a couple beers he started to open up to questions from people on his table. I was sitting next to his table after his speech, he and every one around him then began to have dinner and drinks. Gary isn't really a good public speaker.Īfter his talk he sat down on his table with other like minded pinball people, and people in the pinball Industry. Gary did his long dragged out talk (as he does) as the sitting crowd watched and listened to him, I would consider the speach to be very boring to someone who has no intreest in pinball, but I'm a pinball fan so I enjoyed it. In 2014 I went to a pinball dinner function, with Gary Stern there as a special guest. I'm not going to go into full detail, but I will say this.
