funwithbonus — Tue, 16 Feb 2010 22:43:20 +0000

Destructoid group, Dtoid Penn are going to the 8 on the Break arcade in Dunellen, NJ. This is convenient, because I’m going to be there anyway to get in some pinball practice for the Scott’s Place Tournament as well as to prepare for the next season of the Jersey Pinball Association. Hey, I’ve got to defend the League Championship.

Where and When:

Friday, February 19, 8:00 PM

8 on the Break
340 North Avenue, Dunellen, NJ

“Be there, dammit!”

-JT IceFire

I’ll be there!

Arcade Hunters Revisits 8 on the Break

Anytime my “home arcade” is featured, I have to post about it. Once again Nick! does a great job detailing some of the changes that have happened at “The Break” since his last visit. I wish he would visit during one of our league nights (Wednesdays) so that he, and his crew, could meet some of the pinball regulars. Speaking of which, the next season of the Jersey Pinball Association is set to start in early March. I’m sure that I speak for all of the members of the League when I say that pinball players of all skill levels are welcome to compete.

Pinball News covers Big Buck Hunter

funwithbonus — Thu, 21 Jan 2010 15:28:38 +0000

Pinball News provides coverage of the new Big Buck Hunter Pro pinball game from STERN, Inc. So far there are high res pictures of the playfield along with an introduction on the rules and features of the game. Keep this page on Pinball News bookmarked. As with previous Pinball News reviews, I expect that this initial coverage will soon be accompanied by recordings of the game’s sounds as well as a more detailed description of the game’s scoring features and modes. This game looks promising so far. Plus, this new pinball game is a natural compliment for any bar/amusement area that already has a Big Buck Hunter light gun arcade game.
