Williams Big Guns Pinball Machine Review

[@agostini15times]

We had this game in the pizza shop where I worked and delivered pizzas in high school. We got very good at it. Such a great game. I was actually playing this game when I heard the news that Jerry Garcia passed away.

[@ericmorgan6105]

R.I.P Python. Thanks for the great childhood memories.

[@Crisperdad]

I miss that pinball so much. I wish there was a digital version of this one

[@Riz2336]

Man that is really cool with the balls shooting from the tanks into the tunnel, that feature alone makes this game pretty damn awesome.

[@MrHiu2]

Nice as always! The reviews and your knowledge of the machines really help when collecting!

[@christianb2018]

I am on holiday here in Austria Faschina and there is this pinball machine in a acceptable condition. Never heard from this machine till now. And will not be my favorite. But if there is no other choice, even this game makes a lot of fun. 😀

[@mikesanders3246]

I LOVED Big Guns. Played it for hours and hours

[@alicyjinx8923]

The artwork and theme of this table is very reminiscent of Warhammer 40k

[@BenJabituya]

I remember playing this table. I wish Farsight Studios could digitize this table for The Pinball Arcade for Consoles, computers and mobile platforms.

[@Gamester81Arcade]

Classic machine John, and as always I enjoy your very enthusiastic reviews!

[@thewizard112]

[@jvansplinte75]

sweet machine there, love the pinball machines, great review as always bro!

[@Artrocker86]

Gotta love the part that says "Kill the trolls". Very modern

[@MoreDakka101]

Great pin dude! Love the gun gimmick. Congratz on 2k subs.

[@ArcadeHunters]

Congrats on the pick up John. Great meeting you again at FunSpot. Hopefully I'll be able to go to the next VGO Tournament.

[@Rlotpir1972]

I hope this game is ported to the Pinball Arcade.

[@Biscuit-Triscuit]

This is my favorite pinball machine of all time, it’s the first game of pinball I completed and I love how boisterous and attention demanding it is, also I know I’m like 3-5 years late lol

[@gentleuterus]

Love your collection man. I'd like to start collecting pins but I have no idea how to fix the things.

[@owlnonymous]

Looks like you have been bitten by the pinball bug. Say goodbye to your arcades as the pinball games will only multiply overnight.

[@RandomLand65]

I have an F-14 Tomcat by Williams. It's at a house near Adam's Custom Cabinets. Can you go over there "On the Road" and play it? If you don't know where it is, check on Google Maps.

[@HelloKittyFanMan.]

Heheh, random-comma alert for 1:14 annotation! :-O

[@matthewrivera5923]

John, at 12:01 I heard a knocker sound. I think you got a replay, either by getting on the high score table or by getting a match at the end.

[@norm4260]

Do they even make pinball machines like this today?

[@Johnsarcade]

@JimHawkwind03411 You are right. I knew this too. I have no idea why I said Steve. I meant to say Mark. Total flub on my part. I have added a note in the video. Thanks for pointing this out!

[@sticks6541]

where do you by your pinball games because I have 1 and would like to buy more

[@JimHawkwind03411]

Steve Ritchie didn't design Big Guns. Mark Ritchie (Steve's younger brother) designed it with Python. Mark and Python co-designed Taxi, Police Force (w/ Barry "Pinbot" Oursler), and Fish Tales.

[@blakerice6238]

For @John's Arcade Game Reviews & Tech, as a fictional fact, Steve Ritchie didn't design Big Guns. Mark Ritchie (Steve's younger brother) designed it with Python. Mark and Python co-designed Taxi, Police Force (w/ Barry "PIN-BOT" OURSLER), and Fish Tales. I knew this, too. I wish I had our friend "Steve" in my Brain. BIG GUNS is designed by PYTHON ANGELOU and MARK RITCHIE (Steve's younger brother) who co-designed "TAXI', "POLICE FORCE" (w/ BARRY "PIN-BOT" OURSLER), and FISH TALES.

[@jasonulek1602]

dude i want whatever you`re on lol

[@jsduioeruisfwerfwe]

I've only played this twice, and while I like this pin, I kind of feel like without pop bumpers, ramps or spinners, something is lacking. I mean, when you get multiball, what do you go for (besides the trolls). I like the cannons and 4 flippers, but in many ways it feels like a bunch of one trick ponys linked together loosely. I do want a Big Guns pin, but since I only have room for one pin, it better be a real good one.

[@wilddhaemers]

Cool game that I have never seen.

[@travisjohnson6358]

Great game

[@omgorly]

gotta love your play, cheatin' and all!

[@dakesteele4366]

Thanks, you made me feel better - You suck at playing this game almost as much as I do...

[@anthonytheappguy4426]

(8:41/10:18) The best part of the video.

[@ThunderFist1978]

@stealthfreak Yeah, I saw that right after I posted the question, which is why I removed the first post.

[@ThunderFist1978]

Nice machine! I've always wondered something, though - what do you do for a living that you have all the money to invest in those games? I would love to have that job!

[@gleuszler]

10:57 - ONLY 3 BALLS? I set all my Williams PinMAME machines (including Big Guns) to 7 balls per play.

[@kerryyu7196]

How much for this game?

[@Johnsarcade]

They tend to go cheap. Maybe $800ish

[@necrom99]

@animegamingdude Made in 1972. Check Internet Pinball Machine Database. I picked one up a few weeks ago as well. If you ever get tired of it and want to part it out, let me know.

[@h3xag0nal]

it's in the garadge

[@MegaMuffindude]

Wow, wish I were you.

[@newenglandwolf7158]

[@987WFGR]

One Word: Xanax

[@newenglandwolf7158]

[@h3xag0nal]

[@timothyverbist5795]
