## Analysis

Don content creator streams gameplay of Ghostbusters Pro by Stern, demonstrating high-score strategies using the "gear method" on the left ramp combined with playfield multipliers to build massive point values (450M+ per shot at 6x multiplier). The stream includes casual banter, giveaway announcements, beer reviews, and community interaction with chat. No major industry news or machine announcements are present.

### Key Claims

- [HIGH] Ghostbusters Pro has a gear-building mechanic on the left ramp that can reach 75 million value, which multiplied by 6x yields 450 million points per collection — _Host demonstrates and explains the mechanic multiple times throughout the stream_
- [HIGH] The left ramp shot on Ghostbusters Pro is particularly dangerous and prone to causing drains — _Host repeatedly warns about the danger of the left ramp shot and experiences multiple failed attempts_
- [HIGH] A ghost-collection bug occurred where the host hit a shot with 10 seconds remaining but the ghost did not register despite the ball reaching the target, stopping at 299 ghosts when 300 were needed — _Host describes an earlier game where they were one ghost away from progression with 10 seconds left but the shot failed to register_
- [HIGH] The host achieved approximately 4.8 billion points in an earlier game session — _Host states 'I put up 4.8 billion or something like that on it' while describing a previous game_
- [HIGH] You can start scenes on Ghostbusters Pro by highlighting any shot where scenes can be activated, discovered by guest Nick — _Host mentions 'Nick pointed out that you can start a scene on any of the like if you highlight any of the shots where where you can activate scenes'_

## Transcript

[Music] [Applause] good evening welcome you guys to a really impromptu last-second decision to try and throat some high scores on on ghostbusters Big Tex what's up good to see you guys I hope everybody had an amazing fourth and on that note I do have some of this Rockets red glare really quick you guys can enjoy this yeah that's right huh I'm not getting any of the sounds what's going on here it's connected butt cheek flipper flip tronic flip tronic you guys awesome stream earlier today that was great okay there's a sound no idea why I didn't show up maybe it's just the night there we go we're fine there's nothing to even complain about here yeah awesome job the giveaways were great I gotta tell you I really wanted those the VI the Jurassic Park sticker packs of everybody making very awesome poses they were like fold-out style but it looked awesome I I was really I was I was happy I didn't win the others because it felt like that increased the likelihood I would win that one and and I didn't get there it's fine though I think I'm just gonna have to do a search online to try and find that button Brigade thank you very much for the hosts let's try this Rockets red glare I'm only had a little bit of it oh man so Rockets red glare is a perfect beer for really light whether it's super light was made in collaboration with southern grist brewing it's brewed you guys can see the the red white and blue pop there but it's brewed with rocket pops blue raspberry lemon and milk sugar if I poured this out guys it is a blue beer electronic says next time yes and oh you can get it from Becca okay cool and actually on that note to the four people who won giveaways the shirts I think went out immediately and have already been delivered I remembered that I didn't actually go send them I've got the to the the two poster things sitting by the front door and my wife and I have just been lazy and see that I tried to bring her in on my laziness right it just happens but I have been too lazy to actually go take those two mailing copies so I'm making it a thing tomorrow I'm gonna go pick up some subway for lunch drop those off and I'll get tracking numbers out to I think it was a flip tronic and and elrico who would one those it's two weekends ago now and I'm seriously just lazy but I will get those out tomorrow and get you guys the tracking numbers on those so Rockets red glare pours blue Big Tex it does it's amazing and I look forward to Kia no cat to grace my walls in Texas whenever that baby I agree that if that picture was great and big tax coming in with a color red being overshadowed by the nano leaves that I don't I don't actually have set up on the Unruh bhakta post yet so I'm just slacking in general that's there there's actually no other way to say it I just haven't been working on things unlike dice mind you who has been putting in overtime trying to get his his pinball machine all going I tried the Belhaven Scottish ale today tasted like well it was bad so go free with the Mad Libs you guys tell me what it tasted like ooh ooh that's kind of fun it had the bitter flavor of angry ex-wife how's that sound dice hasn't slept since Thursday geez dice that sucks button Brigade says my phone hates me it keeps spinning every two seconds and I have it on 120 it's he's like that's all team Huckle Cheers dice I I hope your July 4th went went a lot better oh let me show you guys what we have here look at this play field I absolutely love the the Ghostbusters the Ghostbusters pinball machine it's it's fun it's beating me up I got to play it today guys guys yeah you may or may not believe this but I I was working on what we're gonna work on tonight which is a great way to put up billion points scores but it's also very dangerous but when it works it works out really well with very few shots which we've actually done on the stream but I had one really good game and I ended up getting two are you a god and I was working in I got it I I had 10 seconds left on it and I got 299 ghosts I just had to collect one more and the shot I had been working on all day was this shot right here and I'm like that's what I'm going for because that is the only way to end this game is the shot that kind of got me that direction in the first place I hit it perfectly and the ball went up and around in fact I think it's even still there right now that is the ball right there that I knocked into that I knocked in there and it didn't give me the ghost and the ghost was lit I don't understand what happened maybe I had to hit it twice in order to get that ghost but it was very frustrating because I ran out of time I was so flabbergasted at the fact that it didn't register the ghost as the time was counting down and I got stuck at 99 ghost I put up 4.8 billion or something like that on it it was a really really good game and I should have made it to the next stage so not only are we gonna focus on trying to crack the five bill range tonight can't believe you what's just her eyes dead don't panic flip oh my what does happen you're paying your money you're getting you much you must die be a billionaire if you're wasting your money what chooks dice you're amazing thank you on an impromptu stream I can't throw how to Tarot and gives up you get to hear both I mean you're paying your money you're yeah you much you must die be a billionaire if you're wasting your money watch jinx what's his toes and laser loose guys enjoy I the tier 1 subs dice you're amazing my my hat's off to you if I had a hat on right now I would definitely take it off and I have a new favorite hat I thought I lost it this weekend while we were camping because it got really really windy but thankfully a good friend grabbed the hats and saw that they might blow away stash them so there's a good hour there where I thought I wasn't gonna get it I was gonna lose my new Skeletor hat which is my new favorite hat it's great it's a purple Skeletor at how do you how do you complain about those colors and the fact that it's Skeletor just makes it amazing shooter McGavin welcome to the stream let me walk you guys through my thinking on this tonight and this is what I was working on earlier today which is the it's the proton pack way of getting big points right and I says is it the Hat I was going to buy you with the toucan holders no it is not the Hat with the toucan holders although I feel like we might need that for the for the drinking stream when that happens once when we I guess when we hit a thousand I am going to throw it out there when we hit a thousand I might have to push back the celebration in order to make it a dreaming stream at the dreaming a dreaming tree drinking stream I think I combined it those because we listen to some Dave Matthews Band this weekend it had been a while and I Wow lost my train of thought kind of segue it into a corner and then fell off the edge of a cliff and anyway thousand yeah so when we crack it we might not have the party right away with the translate giveaways so and more so with that that might get pushed into August if it happens too quickly and let me know I'll get it for you dice that I think there should be like an ultimate number of points where you can force somebody to shotgun two beers one on both sides while they are playing a game they have to buy but they have to play until both drinks are gone maybe or something along will come up with something good so what we're gonna do is is work on the proton pack and the way you build up the value of the proton pack is to hit the left ramp if you hit it a certain number of times before it times out it hits 75 million now every time you hit the left ramp it does a couple of other things it actually likes your light play field multipliers which is the blue light right there if you hit this shot right here at this captive ball and the first time it's gonna light the two X the second time it's gonna like the three X and while you're shooting that left ramp assume you hit left ramp then captive ball left ramp then captive ball now you've got two left ramps your 2x and 3x lit and what you kind of want to do is hit that left ramp a little dirty so it tags one of the the playfield multipliers which are gonna be here and here to the left and right there they're in blue of the left ramp so that way you just keep looping it get it up to 75 million activate your 6x and on and then collect at any time biting the proton pack over to the left and then it's wash rinse repeat over and over again for I don't know what seventy five million times that by six is but it's over 400 million Hey right you see you do that several times so you could just keep going up and up and while you're doing that you want to start your modes here and you'll also often activate storage facility multi-ball once it just doing all of those shots so you can progress through the game while you're trying to work on putting up a big score and like what happened earlier today where we ended up doing the whole thing and and coming in just shy of five billion so that's what I want to work on is hitting those shots and if we can nail it a few times then actually try and complete this chain and kind of see where things go after that see if we can might get some of the the ultimate goal of tonight I would feel successful as if a we beat the wizard mode which I would just love to do I've gotten to the second phase now three times I think and for whatever reason that is the exact moment I stopped being able to play pinball and cannot hit any shots so I would love to be able to finish that get there because that takes that that takes a lot of shots and then continue through it and call it good a bi would love to crack five billion tonight so wow it's weird I thought I that's great you guys can see all of the gesticulation now that I have this hand cam here on top of that I can give you guys some good close-ups of the cans unless as long as I don't let the beer come out no that's actually pretty dark is it the Hat nope it's not let me know I'll get it Edward forty hands I mean if that gets pushed into August I may as well be there after a Lebowski weekend dice I'm not opposed I have not opposed it all to quote Ulrich from Silicon Valley it's plenty 5ie don't remember Ulrich but I never saw the last season so here we go word of warning by the way just word of warning this shot here is very dangerous just it is it's awful so that we may have some games and I'm gonna go ahead and just shoot and say several where where we just drain a lot and don't actually get anywhere okay Oh Erlich not all right got it the guy who owned the house right the the guy that nobody in Hollywood ever wants to work with again and I'm gonna put the hard on you Lord Howard Hertz welcome to the stream every shot on this monstrosity is dangerous Lord Howard Hertz thank you for saying that I hope to prove it wrong tonight also mind blown when Nick and Ty were over here last week Nick pointed out that you can start a scene on any of the like if you highlight any of the shots where where you can activate scenes that it is a start scene so the whole time like that would have really made a big difference I to be able to do that on the hello speaking of the devil there he is so that that would have made a lot of the speedruns I think a lot easier what I want again the zmax and in general I feel like just made this whole game a lot easier so what we're gonna do is place it on the left ramp we're gonna fill plunge I'm gonna try and capture cool good start not where I wanted to put that I actually wanted to put that on the on that left ramp but that's fine we're gonna go here and then we're gonna try and hit the multiplier shot very early I can't tell I think yeah that's blurred a little bit how is that is that more in focus also it is really really hot in here okay ghostbusters equals George's Xena huh yeah Ehrlich almost like TJ Miller Buchi right thank you sure starts activated do you mean like what he starts playing he doesn't miss any shots is that I completely believe there it is we're gonna start there you can short plunge for the left flipper control as well right doctor curly tech absolutely once I get it I can consistently live catch that drop I just need to I just need to find it alright there's that so what we're gonna try and do is build up that value to now we're gonna go play field multipliers that sucks whatever it's a mode shot I don't feel that bad about it there we go now we've got two and three X lit let's just hit this a few times crap we started another mode that's fine that's fine we're all real good here that had some spin on it nope little early little early now and this is also what I'm talking about we got a we're gonna find these shots and then we might make this work at least at least once I saw it held up I tried held it now holding up two fingers but I don't I don't believe that increased gear in six xsplit yeah Lord how it hurts that's what we're working on today cool cool cool cool cool cool cool like where where the game is at right now there it is all right so now we're already on the third mode we're also on our third Volvo so that's not that's not great all right game there's that crap so I was going for the light playfield multipliers didn't happen there it is it's a dangerous shot it's so it's so so dangerous uh let's see here Boop such a colorful slime colored machine it is this machine is gorgeous color orange that is orange back there you know about the ghost target being viable for every second mode shot now oh my god I have seen that but I had no idea what shot was what was actually getting rid of a mode shot no I had no idea it's a dangerous shot though alright let's do this again all the way around that that worked really well we got our 2x let's go with that left ramp all right all right game just calm down here a second calm down Wow can't buy a bucket now yeah that is definitely a lot of brick shots that's a lot of breakage oh man it's fine it's fine there we go so now we've got our two and our three and now we're building up the gear value there we go away I did I got the 3x running there's 31 somebody just followed now we're at 37 come on just a few more shots oh man oh there's a storage facility 75 and collect there we go so we just got four hundred and fifty million on that shot which is great we've still got our two in our three excellent so we can just keep doing it over and over now we've got to relight our 2x our two and 3x let's light our 2x we lit it but we ended up collecting get there get there alright alright crap alright Jace's Sierra just gave me a tray of brownies just because

now which is an amazing sour tweet ale brewed with rocket pops blue raspberry lemon and milk sugar and tonight we're focusing on high scores using the gear method which is where you build up the value of gear on the Left ramp you activate your playfield multipliers 6x at a maximum value of 75 million puts you at 450 total when you collect on the proton pack shots over here so that's what we're going with at the same time we are I guess also just working on general progress within the game lobster sticks to magnet welcome to the stream and DeBary as well played both Hot Wheels and Turtles

Crilley tech apparently that the 6x is the at 75 so for a total of 450 as the max I did not mean to add a player if that is in fact what I did I told you I can I can dial in the live cash but you know

madness if it went higher it would there it is like I I know I can when I find the shots that sucked that I found the middle shot the straight down the middle shot that's always a good time - all right we need to hit that shot first live catch good enough X I find that shot all the time there it is I'll also love that after you get this once and you get that what is it five percent of your score that's not insignificant that was a 31 million point shot I'll take it I'll take it got the super and we've got 2x so we're gonna need to tag it here after it kicks it out missed it by that got it there here we go let's see if we can tag that 3x on the way up crap alright alright let's go control here and we'll hit this now we just got to build up that value again oh crap I started a wizard mode and now I can't collect on proton pack game you suck we do have 6x going into a mini wizard mode though I mean that's always good so we've got our atom ball which was good that doesn't look good [Music] we're cool we're cool all right we still got our two and three X going what a shame alright so we are done with that chain we've got Tobin's spirit guide lit what else let's just I guess go back in and keep working on score let's see here I go to player every time one to do well and one to get the suck out that's my first few games wow that display looks wonderful here's Tobin's spirit guide what's it gonna give me biggest points so we've got our two excellent Oh No super jackpots growing left ramp there's that that was only at it's 2x though gosh darn it oh I wanted to say something much worse there I find that shot all that the middle one right right the the middle straight down the middle shot yeah I totally get that oh man so I'm caught up on chat yes I am you guys I

thank you I never say anything bad about you ever left Ram left ramp there it is beautiful beautiful oh we just started a multi ball I'm fine with that we tagged that three on the way up there got our extra ball let's just keep looping that up there okay all right don't drink don't okay don't tell don't tell don't tell we're fine we're fine what just happened oh we're in Lupin Super's with six acts I'm getting better at this shot what do you guys say we're running out and uh we were running out of art I I decided I wanted to re-up on the multipliers there let's hear did you show the color of that beer I did not it is super blue I'm gonna try and move this over just a hair oh no we're good we're fine we're all fine here we're super fine [Applause] up and over on the playfield multipliers found that shot nice and easy storage facility on the left good good and that activated our 2x so sometimes you want to shoot it dirty and that's okay we're gonna activate our 3x there oh my god that it wandered yeah I don't even know what to call that also [Applause] has that that's better maybe I don't know I can't tell soup and loopers all you had to do is collect all this soup I know alright 1.8 guys were sucking we are going downhill let's let's bring this back up did it give oh it gave us the 2x good good oh that's really frustrating found that shot again yes the background is really out of focus upstream that background is supposed to be out of focus [Applause] all right slightly larger skill shot garsh darn it nice and easy we're gonna go left ramp there it is beautiful land there's no no up and around we've got ourselves a mote shot and a storage facility we've got both our 2x and 3x split if we can hit this cleanly a few times there's our three X started that was unclean I don't know what are somebody just did something then you need to get that 2x going got the 2x going sorry guys I got nothing on that one that was just a really good slide I have no idea what this is that right now cool so super jackpot at 6x I don't know what that was felt good and also somebody just followed that was magic did oh and gore is 94 guys thank you so much if you have any questions my hat's off to you first of all second of all if you have any questions feel free to throw them out if you just want to lurk totally get that and if you want to chat feel free and if you're just joining we're playing some Ghost Busters this evening it would be bad got that I guess while we're there we can take a couple of shots right that sucked all right all right we're cool we're cool game we're ready for our first mini wizard mode we do have 6x running crap also we lit storage facility there it is all right so mini wizard mode started and we've got sip 6x doink [Applause] I'll take it I will take that because that was really really bad again not happening three times you might get me once fool me twice but three talk it's good and take our extra ball before we awesome ourselves into another complete failure there all right we love pinball welcome to the stream Simon how what was your day how's the life on the other side of the world there there we go I didn't start a mode I think that sucks oh I could collect on so I can't collect on mini wizard modes well that was good I have two and three lit I just need to there's a three maybe there's a two - did it touch yes okay so now we have two and three lit so we have our 6x we got ourselves another extra ball I will take all of those all of the oh no I'm gonna take all of those lasses what are we getting here oh this is Lupin supers with six acts let's do it guys let's do it there we go four five six seven we've lost our two and three X that's fine now we're gonna go Oh No that sucked seven loops that sucks I wonder if I should just keep going since the the jackpot on them is pretty decent and Prost let's see if we can actually hit this shot thank you really wanted it for oh that was a hundred and eleven million skill-shot how awesome is that light super jackpot there's that not good not good give me the ball back give me the ball back I'm fine guys I just want that storage facility shot we've got two excellent whoo here we go Oh No nice and easy left ramp there it is so that is a storage facility shop we've still got 2x lip but we haven't started it yet I feel like you should never what just happened oh we completed that now I guess let's go back off man up and around got it there's our back off man and another Tobin's spirit guide which is essentially our mystery get her oh my god whoa no we have the 6x all right we need to hit those shots okay so arcade runner welcome and gore is I think yeah you followed earlier thank you so much I know that was almost a bill just from that Lupin super mode okay cool I wasn't keeping track of how much I got from that I feel like you should never collect a super jackpot before Lupin Super's is I think it seems to reset you know what it might be on collect that honestly might be it although that ruins might because the collect is on the left rampant so much of this game is so focused on that left ramp still not 100% sure exactly how super jackpot value increases I feel like it does reset at the end of every ball that increases with the spinner it definitely increases with the spinner also if you get your skill shot up at the top I think it increases and it also seems like the pops can randomly give it to you let's do that yeah I have I put that on the wrong shot I really should have put that on the left ramp whatever got 835 million on one shot I'm not I'm not gonna complain what are we getting here ten plus ten percent of your score and there's that there's the final shot of that mode and we're in our second wizard mo mini wizard mode and we've got two and three lit right now he kicked its booty two exes running I'll take those again I need to work on this over here to get light and add a ball that's where I should be focusing right now no no no okay give me something give me something give me those back okay we've got light add a ball we've got our two and three X going okay that was not great but we are ready to start this mode right there which is okay who brought the dog that was weird ah alright yeah that was that was it was pretty awful oh wow it gave us another we have another ball okay take that ah oh yeah here we go I'm gonna flip lunch that sucks I'll take that ESP ability obvious I like ESP ability by the way okay apparently I don't today hey we get some initials magic ditto with that follow if you're still watching feel free to throw up your initials and you're getting in here as high-score number 2 otherwise I'm just gonna put em GD for magic ditto I'll start working on that MGD i just realized that that's also Miller Genuine Draft arcade runner I hate out lanes I know I don't like him either ah alright what time is it it's only 11:30 guys we've got lots of opportunities to try and get there let's keep going with this and see and no matter what I am definitely averaging much much better scores thanks X that wasn't that wasn't bad but honestly I feel like it's just knowledge of the game at this point that's that's really that's making things better like I am gray more consistently putting up multi billion point scorers except for when I'm not Wow [Laughter] anybody else feel like they did that to themselves just by trying to speak positively about play style take it take it there's our super building up that jackpot here we go 4 oh I missed it I was going for the 3 oh man that right out lane out lanes are evil I like all the mods you have in the machine arcade runner this this it's really easy to mod this machine in particular Ghostbusters there's a ton of them out there there's the crazy slime stuff there you got the green slime on the playfield had to go with the with the pin blades that were I think I think actually the artwork was actually done by zombie Yeti and what else do we got we have a bunch of the flipper Stoppers we replaced the balls with green balls we have I haven't installed it yet but I do have the walking Stay Puft mod so that way when you're in a state Puft Marshmallow Man mode he actually rocks back and forth so I have that one I just haven't installed it what else have we done the plunger on it is a special plunger the flipper buttons I replaced with purple light up flipper buttons and oh it's got a topper and it's got a whole bunch of Lights in it but I don't have enough power for all the lights so I just got a board that gives me eight more power connections and there's probably more that I'm not really thinking of right now oh I think that entire Ghostbusters building right there I think that's a that that whole thing might be a mod anyway let's move this over Ginga with that five million light super jackpot we're already on ball three and we've missed out on so many intent like 5% score increases for over a hundred million so we've got our 2x up and over let's see if we can unlock the three X that did not work let's hit that left ramp again we can keep building up that's crap we just I think collected luckily we haven't actually started our 2x yet so we're not running out of time there I'll take that it's a mode shot all right it's gonna give us that mode for free and we do have our our 2x running now our two and three is running all right that sucks come on give me it gently whoo what do we need right now so we've already done our Oh light at a ball Wow [Applause] men really need that light at a ball give me that add a ball I feel like I've hit that shot so many flippin times it's fine I'm being patient here yes seriously how many times do I have to hit that I moved three of them over oh okay let's light play field multipliers and left ramp and light play field multipliers and a left ramp oh my god whoo both running there's a storage facility and I guess let's run up some points here here value 11 here value something else gear value 26 we've still got our 6x running here 41 59 I think one more should do it just gotta keep pushing it right you just got it I should have collected that would have been a really nice collect let's go this side nice that was one skill shot for 55 crap really wanted that second that's it all right there we go spooks librarian we've got storage on the Left ramp not sure which one it is [Applause] apparently that was number two and I guess we can go that shot that's done so let's go back off no actually let's go multipliers I did not start the mode oh uh I meant to start the mode we've got our 6x running that was good we've got a super with a 6x Wow just put two in the drain immediately but at least we can start working back towards modes stuff there we go so now we're in back off man I meant to actually start that beforehand the st. wheel of pinball I know right it's it's always the same out lane there we go we've still got our 6x 32 34 crap what do we need here it looks like we need that shot which I totally got crap got that one all right I mean if we're gonna work on the mode there's our extra ball what do we need here left ramp looks like maybe one or two more with at least two more shots on back off man nope now we're done and we're ready to go into the mini wizard mode here should have lit some multiple actually let's light multipliers from the safety of a multi ball so our two x's lit go all right we've got our 6x running we've got an add a ball on the left scoop there it is that sucked but that's fine because of the add a ball we've got our shoot again no longer let's move not cool game I'll take that cool cool I'm loving it I'll take these shots all day that sucked all right all right so we've got Tobin's

John thank you for for putting the bits out at the exact same time that I also said cool cool cool that was that was great come on live catch here we go third mode third ball not looking great there's that multipliers doing that multipliers miss the shot by just a hair and collects because it was an accident tag that 2x and nope noop noop noop oh I guess while we're here sucking it up let's realign we're fine we're all fine here out lanes I know right did stream time move up by 30 minutes Z Mac I I don't normally stream on Sundays I've just been sneaking it in because I had the time wife went to bed I I almost snuck in a stream last night uh and I got going later because I made the decision a little bit later but my old stream was from 10:30 to 12:30 we started running into Internet issues and it looks like it hasn't happened yet so I moved it back a half hour to try and avoid those and there you go you've got the you've got the hook the whole story cool great start man this it's been it's been great we just got to dial in these jobs again let's try that again shall we I can backhand that shot though right not due for another two minutes so we've got our 2x lit so we want to hit that that.oh wanted to hit that left ran relight light play field multipliers hit that a second time wow this is going really really great that one's just done and over with let's let's try that one again shoot again oh [ __ ] again somehow we moved it huh that doesn't help me at all alright new Wow well this has been a wonderful brick no no no lots and lots of bricks Facebook oh wait wait wait so is there a place to find the TP on schedule do I view your profile fine Facebook page has it as well I think ah that is a really good question it's so funny people have been asking for the TP on schedule and I created a widget so that way people could put it on their streams but I don't I don't have access to the website for for the pinball Network so I don't I haven't set it up to make that to make that schedule that we have kind of live and uh and available but there's no reason it couldn't be the the widget itself could be utilized as an iframe that is I just realized I started going into the technical details there [Music] off by about like an eighth of an inch right now on every shot here we go that counted but I didn't like it here we go here value at 63 new man so hope did we lose internet what was that notification nope that was unrelated okay cool we might not lose Internet tonight it's 1207 I feel like we played three games in the last three minutes [Applause] JME rainwater welcome to the stream do you think the premiums add to the value of gameplay or is the pro still full game just without the toys loving the scream design I so Pat Jam sorry jmw rainwater that is a really good question because um I feel like there's so many so many different opinions on it I personally I've owned both the the premium and the pro on this particular game I think the pro plays a lot better I really like the premium I think there's some more toys on it that would be really really fun on the pro but I'm actually there's so many mods on the pro available for it I'm okay with it we lost our mole are our multipliers that is just how off we are now man so the the difficulty on the premium is that on the the right hand side there is a ramp that actually they've made components because the it's it's a really hard ramp to hit that goes across like it it just it goes up really really high it's not that it's it's impossible but sometimes it feels like you can hit it perfectly and it just doesn't work so I don't like that also the left ramp is a lot harder to hit because it's a lot steeper of a shot on the premium which is why I feel like the pro plays better also there's consistency with standard slings on the pro as opposed to the Magnus slings that said I actually really like the Magna slings I feel like the Magna slings even though they add a lot of inconsistency to the game they are thematically they make so much sense I love the Chuckle and the Laughing as it what seemingly the the the ghosts in the game are kind of messing with your with your ball and it feels like that's actually what's happening so anyway that's my two cents on the premium versus the pro let's hear I'm glad to see all these pinball streamers working together to promote pinball I hope more younger people can find joy in the game arcade runner I feel the same way dr. Carly tag 450ml pay I it's I like I cooled down for a second now the sudden I can't I can't find it I've been I've been hitting the 450 all night I just need to find the shots it's like the there we go we're gonna maybe this is the game maybe this is the game where we where we find them again I'll take the save thank you here we go left ramp and now there's that left ramp build up the value that's fine bounce hit now we've got our 2x and 3x lit which is great we're gonna keep building up the gear value 5.7 [Music] get up there now nope not the game well not the ball I should say and I've had to play extra so many times during state finals I've been up to and OH - and won every single time and still can't beat him Asher's amazing no doubt about it new yeah I got nothing he's a machine for sure well done making the states yeah GMAC is is another amazing top player for sure personally I think River a slime has the potential to be bigger than gear collects just nobody is using it correctly Zee Mac that is a really that's a I that is an easier shot for me to hit but maybe that one is a lot less likely to to drain spook librarian all right and left rant [Music] there we go left ramp so we've got the 3x started we've got storage facility to let I'll take that we've lit an extra ball and we started the ballroom apparently there's that and there's that so we're building up value here all right I'll take the extra ball but that is oh no two modes over and now we can't collect because we're in a mini wizard mode that's fine that's fine could use a multi ball to recalibrate here take that double that was beautiful right there okay so we've got our 6x playfield going [Music] that could have gone better yeah that's fine whatever going around man oh did we lose it and we're back play field cam looks like 30 frames per second now so we did lose it right around 12:15 sorry about that it does the play field actually look different I'm gonna take a shot yeah actually I think the playfield is okay for us well for me I should say could just be taking its time coming back [Music] so we made it through a little blurry man it is crystal clear over here and I'm at 6,000 it seemed like it was running at 30 frames per second when I first came back got it okay the old I have a double thank you never mind on the blurry I'm at 480p okay cool I'm like I everything is looking okay here I'm at 60 frames per second at 1080 my CPU is hovering right around 10% and I'm in the green now at 6000 so I think we're cool okay good left ramp there we go let's even grab some play field multipliers here that'll that'll work all right oh my gosh that was a lot of non control there nope whoo come on 160 I don't know what I'm looking at so when it came back did everybody get dropped down to a lower resolution cuz that is funky Emily uh thank you very much for throwing that to the discord thread I'll take the ball save storage facility and three storage facility is what we're going to grab there on a lock shot we've got 2 & 3 X 2 X is running 3 X's just lit we're gonna have to tag that right there woo [Music] oh my god can't find that shot anymore it's fine it's fine we're just gonna reset here they did such a good job at the colored EMTs sold mine before I got it oh you've always been at 480 just bad internet there man this playfield is crazy and that does suck that you're at 480 because there is so much going on with this place so many colors so much detail it's actually I mean this is still I think to this day my favorite zombie Yeti pin hi I love this band I think this has the best the best theme integration the best call outs [Applause] Wow stop that one dead all right oh man that's just let that guy go their biggest gap yeah it's got a big it's got a big gap but it's honestly not that bad I'm just playing really poor thing right the hell if I do there it is and [Applause] all right control control Oh No and then there's game did this creature Mustang oh yeah I can see the playfield any old time I'll just look right when I met Blizzard biggest gap I'm still fighting for I ain't afraid of no flipper gap tournament we're getting closer I must leave you now we love pinball thanks for the stream by chatting by george simon have a great night i think you are streaming a little bit later today technically it's probably it will be evening for you i think you're about eight hours ahead of us right now nice good solid start I feel like we just keep doing that yes you do great awesome Simon I can't wait to see it later there's that we'll see if we can grab another nope little early little early grab a mode shot while we're sucking here we go left ramp oh my god we the ones on ac/dc lower Simpsons World Poker Tour okay I want to put the smaller oh the one-inch flippers that's right you you mentioned that the last stream to whoo yep there we go so two and 3x running we've got storage facility lock number one I think and now we just want to build this up oh man yep good antenna flipper thumb instead now that would be super funny to see some banana flip flippers on games that don't normally have them go left ramp new yeah sorry - it said to go through that internet issue and then I am going to end it we were playing so well earlier and Matt just lost it at the end reflexes and everything regardless it's Sunday you guys I hope everybody has an awesome week this week there's a great schedule of streaming on TPN we've got lots of games lined up hopefully a bunch of people getting Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles I feel like I've seen a couple of pros go out too - non non operators so I'm really hoping to start seeing TMNT streamed more often in the near future I'm not sure when we're gonna grab bars but I will let you guys know as soon as I get an ETA on that you guys have a safe I'm not blaming the booze yeah I did not blame the booze I went with for percenters all day today so it's it's been it's been chill it's been totally chill and thank you guys so much for hanging out have a wonderful rest of your Sunday nights or early Monday mornings and we'll see you guys around thank you so much we should never forget that bad dude why are you still talking I was simply trying to highlight the lesson we all learn trying to get out of here but I need to say my important takeaway message from this experience you know something kids can talk to their parents about on the drive home [Applause] [Music] ask your parents what babies come from [Music] hey guys it looks like PES Johnson is on right now let's go rate and you're still here it's over go home
