For me, it's pinball. None of my friends will play me because I crush them, but I know if I played in a tournament, I would be the crushed instead.
But that's a single player game... ๐ค
Yes, but people compete with high scores
Actually, you can do multi-player games. On real machines you pay for credits, and then you have to use one credit per player. But, the first player plays their first ball, and after the first player drains (loses) their ball, the second player plays their first ball until they drain it, then the third player, etc. Once everyone has played their first balls, then Player One returns with their second ball, and play continues like that through all three balls.
The amount of trash talking during play varies depending on who you're playing, but as with most things, trash talking your buddies while they're playing is one of the more enjoyable aspects of the game.
So uh, what's your favorite table?
Don't think I have just one. But, you know what they say, you always remember your first one fondly, and my first was Black Knight. How about you?
Black Knight is really good, a top 5 for me. Attack From Mars is my favorite. Other notables: Medieval Madness, Champion Pub, and of course the ubiquitous Addams Family and Twilight Zone.
Nice. You have good taste in tables.
