- Now wait a second...

- I _like_ Black Rose. While the score could be taken off any .mod
- file, it's still a good score. The table art is *very* good, although
- the backglass artist needs to learn his female anatomy better. The
- video modes are fun, theme-oriented (without having to have come from a
- movie), and could only be better enhanced by an "override" to let the
- player speed get past the "How-to" every time and get on with the show.
-
- The table itself is well laid out with the two ramps being
- self-sufficient and self-contained. The row targets are thematic and
- entertaining, and events like The Pirates Cove, The Combo, and The
- Whirlpool all contribute to the game, and hell... Broadside is *always*
- fun to shoot for. The sound samples are clear, concise, and helpful.
-
- Star Wars... now *that's* a turkey.
