This is followed by a tour of the Haggis factory describing the various sections and processes Haggis utilizes to create games.
“‘Pinball is not so much “spiritual opium” as a contact sport.”
Article excerpt:
“… playing pinball involves your entire being. A good pinball player doesn’t just use the flippers but learns to nudge and shake the machine (while avoiding the dreaded “tilt”) in an effort to keep the ball in play and score more points.
As a result, pinball is not so much “spiritual opium” as a contact sport. In a word, the level of engagement is visceral.”
2.5 Hours of Alien Pinball Gameplay
Video description by: Hurry Up Pinball
“Craig and Lance play Alien by Pinball Brothers (Episode 107). Lance plays Alien for the first time. Chone and Maddox make an appearance and Craig gets to Save Newt multi-ball for the first time.
Lance starts two Loader Battles and proves if you nudge violently, you can get away with it. Lots to see in this one.”

Pinball on ESPN [THE OCHO]
This Friday, August 6th, 2021 at 2:30 pm Eastern, there will be a pinball competition broadcast on ESPN [The Ocho], The Stern Heads-Up Pinball Invitational.
Pinball tournament fanatics, and especially enthusiastic competitors already know the result of this competition. But, give it a repeat watch or a stream anyway to add to whatever watch numbers are relevant here, and to help support the players and organizers who put on the event.
I am interested to see how the gameplay gets edited down into the half-hour time frame, along with any profiles that may be added to give flavor to the broadcast.

So in the Mandalorian Season 3, Grogu is going to team up with the newly resurrected Paul Bearer.
They will negotiate ways to split up the empires of World Wrestling Entertainment and Star Wars so that they rule over both with an iron fist.
Their first move will be to perfect the sneaky hex on pinball players to demonstrate their power to hex anything else that they want. Scout and Beck have already been recruited as apprentices.
