I have had a few Gottlieb system 80's! I currently have a Black Hole
and Haunted House sitting side by side. They are my favorite pair of
early Gottlieb system 80's. Both are in great shape and have been
completely bullet-proofed. Great games to both play and look at. I
actually enjoy working on the System 80's. I recently sold a real nice
Volcano to my step sister, that is a fun game!
I would love to have a Devil's Dare, and would kill to have a Krull!

My favorite System 1 would have to be Genie, Count-Down and Sinbad tied
for second. Favorite System 80 is Black Hole. Finally, favorite
System 80A is Ice Fever, however, Spirit and Devil's Dare are both
80A's, and I haven't tried either yet.

Current Gottliebs owned from that era: Sinbad, CE3K, Panthera,
Counterforce, & Touchdown.

I have played Lloyd's Pinball Pool, and it is an excellent example!

My favorite Gottlieb SS is Black Hole, hands down. Part of it is
sentimental though; it was one of the more popular pin games in the arcade I
worked at as a high school senior, in 1982 (ok, do the math, you can see how
old I am :). System 80 is an illness of mine; I own Spider-Man, Black
Hole, Haunted House, Big House, and Bone Busters...

Regards,
Dan

That's another good one I'd like to get to know again some day, along with
Countdown.

System 80 would have to be Black Hole, System 1, I love my Genie.
Would like to get a Joker Poker and maybe a Sinbad some day.

The favorite of my Gottliebs of that era is Black Hole.
Oh, wait... that's the only pin I own... still my favorite, though.

It's GREAT to see that some of us here love our Gottliebs. As I have said, I
have serveral SS's. But still, I do have some Em's that I played and grew up
with that I cherish as well.

To me it'd have to be BH. For play, period sounds, and overall "ooh
aah" visual stimulation. HH is a close second. J.Poker and Sinbad are
my favorite sys 1s.
Id like to have a really nice Spidey.

Gotta chime in here,

I enjoy my Sinbad, Solar Ride, Spider Man, and (soon to be if all goes
well) Black Hoe!!! as Shaggy and Norm call it!

I have a feeling Black Hole will be my new favorite. Spider Man is my
favorite now, Sinbad almost as well, and Solar Ride is OK.

Have fun, Karl.

All my games except one are Gottlieb SS. HH, BH, Volcano & Genie are
the Gottliebs I own and I wouldn't part with any of them. All have
their great points. Embryon is my other game a 1980 Bally.

HH: Best Sound
BH: Best game play
Volcano: Unique with a very challenging multiball--Very fast and fun
Genie: This is the game that hooked me. I love the flow and simplicity
of the play with many shot options and great Art.
Embryon: awsome sound and lights (I know it's not a Gottlieb, but it's
a great SS game.)

I LOVE Sinbad; I wish I had never let mine go. On the other hand, I was
HAPPY to loose my Close Encounters!!

You STILL have that Genie, Steve? :p Just can't bear to sell it? Well,
it IS a beauty :)
Yeah I kinda miss my ol' Cleopatra too. System 1's have soul, man. The
soul of an em!
