I think Pinball and Video games go together like white on rice, and I can imagine many, if not all of us here, have played a fair share of Pinball Machines. I wasn't able to come up with 20 to start us off, but of course this list can and will be amended. Lets discuss and work out a great list of pinballs!
1) Dr. Who
2) High Speed
3) High Speed II: The Getaway
4) Terminator 2: Judgement Day
5) Black Knight 2000
6) Addams Family
7) PinBot
8) Indiana Jones: The Pinball Adventure
9) Comet
10) Cyclone-1988 version
11) Star Wars -data east version
12) Funhouse
13) Diner
14) Earthshaker
15) Rescue 911
16) Star Trek: The Next Generation
17) Twilight Zone
18) Medieval Madness
19) Jurassic Park
20) Theater of Magic
My personal favorite of all time is Getaway. I was blown away by the music, sound fx, and the cool race you could do on the dot matrix. Plus the gear shift ball launcher, this game has style!
Dr. Who--I don't think I've ever played a more involved pinball than this one. There were so many 'missions' to accomplish and different combos to pull off, I kept busy with this machine for months.
Indiana Jones--best use of the dot matrix, it seemed like half the game was played on it, what with all the graphic missions you needed to accomplish, like the Rope Bridge, or the Mine Cart Ride. Greatness.
Terminator 2--Sometimes, less is good. The deck is as bare as pinball gets, but for some reason, this game just PLAYS. Maybe its just me, but I found some rythm on this one that just made me feel good to play it, and there's hardly anything to the game!
Addams Family--If theres one pinball on the list that I'm positive will not be removed, its this one. To my knowledge, this is still the top money making pinball of all time. If I recall it was the top Arcade money maker in Replay magazine for 24 months straight. Anyone know for sure?
