Dirty Harry: 1 Hell of a game !

[Gerry]

Been playin alot of Capcom Airborne, and lovin it, back on the IM
again, after i forgave it for kicking my ass...LOL......but DH is by
far one of my favorite games i have ever had.... :)

Great music that fits the theme to a Tee .....

Real audio clips form Clint...

True to the movie thru and thru...

Wise ass remarks form clint as well...

The left ramp shot is way more satisfying than my STTNG was....

The gun is NOT over used, but used perfectly...

Optional skill shots...

Tight shots as well throughout the PF.....

The sound package on this WPC is the best sounding of any of them i
have had...dont know why! but it is....tons of bass...and its a stock
system...

Great ruleset...that just gets deeper as you go....

Multiple ramp and loop combos..richochet..super richochet, and ultra
richochet.. more than that i dont know ? ..but this game just keeps
on giving

Main modes and mini modes...

There is just a ton of shit to do in this one...

IMO, By far the BEST BANG for your buck out there in a B/W DMD game
hands down...

If i was ever in a position where i needed cash and had to move some
games, some of the A-titles i have would be long gone, and DH would
not !

[KD]

Cool, I like the honest review by an owner,and I believe I should keep
an eye out for one.My 2 other pins could use a little guidance by
Clint.I find Clint worthy enough to be on a backglass.Some other
licensed pins with actors or scenes on it/or staring at me "are not
worthy"

I would agree with that review.
A good game, good layout and fun!

I have had it for about, well just over a year i guess.....i NEVER
tire of it......got 2,105,413,630 on it the other night, my best ever
was like 1,400,000,000 somethin.....

Had a pin party bout 4 months ago and Ron Hallet, AKA Gizmonic on
here, a wizard tournement player.. got just over that, 2,107,552,714
and set grand champion...i was pissed..(not really) ...but i thought
i'd never get close, but i did !...i didnt beat it, but i was within
200,000 pionts of it...soooooooo damn close....

I have had A-list stuff that just falls short after 3 months, b
listers as well....DH is just a wicked pin....ya gotta spend time with
it andd you have to be determined.....

the further you get in the better it gets..it just keeps goin up
hill....well worth the money....you will not be disappointed !

KD by the way it seems the average score for most guys on here is
around 400,000,00 700,000,000....

the billion and 2 billion thing dosent happen every day..quite
difficult to achive at times.....

[Brighton Ive]

Agree. Killer game.

[THE COUNT]

I agree, it has alot to offer. I upgrade the speakers in mine and was
impressed how big of an improvement it made. It sounded great stock,
but the bigger cab woofer really makes the bass sound awesome.

Gerry,

When you get tired of IM kicking your ass, you can sent it my way, so it
can kick my ass!

Dirty Harry is a lot of fun. It has depth a lot of shots and a great
wizard mode. I have a sample one with the drop target and it's not
going anywhere.

well at it. Best score is 5,132,932,350.

[squeakman]

Al this talk about how god this pin is is making me want to find one.
I am sure this is another pin like Congo that is totally hard to find
in good condition.

[Gerry]

Dont worry James... IM is going nowhere :) you too Joe.... :)

[bobweir]

Just got a HUO on Friday..Cannot wait to play it.

HUO? Cool...mine is super nice, but its been on route before....not
drilled and wicked clean..but i am jealous for sure....

and goerge Hali, has that sample DH...i think the drop target is
killer..wish mine was a sample, but oh well still love the game...

Congrats on that score.....

[Les Manley]

I have played it on location a couple different places. One, the gun
didn't work and the second it did. The working gun made a huge
difference. :)

[Jim McCune (honda350r)]

Mine is a Sample and has a tag on the lock down receiver that says
TESTER . Bought mine site unseen and it just happen to be a test
game .

Jim

[shlockdoc]

OK now i want one :-) that was easy

[Gerry]

Mark, get one !

[THE COUNT]

Honestly I haven't played one on location that wasn't beat to hell. The
best one I've played "in the wild" was a Pinballz in Austin, it was in
pretty decent shape. Mine was in excelent shape except for the PF,
which I replaced recently with an NOS one. Now that I got that done and
just got my gun chrome plated by Mike Chestnut, it is super nice and
will never leave.

Midnight madness is really cool. And for some reason I find making the
right ramp very satisfying. Having said that, I don't think I played
one on location that the flippers were strong enough to consistenly
shoot that ramp.

Yes Mark, get one.

Sell the 2006 Championship Duncan Yo-Yo you earned to Rick at Pawn Stars.
I already can smell the big money you would get.

Who could forget that day in 2006....in Chicago at the YoYo World Cup...
You remember 2006, when you went head to head with YoYo King Newman for
3 hours to see who had the best 'cats cradle', 'the glass lab', 'rocking
horse' and 'baby in a tree'! You made Shawn Fumos's Guide To Looping
look easy that day.

WOW, brings back memories. The 10, 000 fans, the lights, the groupies!!
I love the YouTube video of you winning the final round with swear
running down your fingers as you were declared WORLD CHAMPION! What a
moment it must have been for you with the years and years of Olympic
style work ethic of hours, training and pure hard work to get you there!

I would love to see it in the showcase next to the SuperBowl rings!

[shlockdoc]

I thought you stopped smoking crack? :)

[kurtok]

My first pin and one of my favs. Has to be set up right so the ramp
shots flow. Doesn't get a lot of love ariund here but who cares.
If you don't have plastic protectors, make them now. The feeling lucky
gun shots were designed to sell plastics.
Enjoy
Kurt

I had some practice on DH :^)

Well, I was hanging out with Gerry at the past few shows.

He not only knows how to dispose of Dead Hookers (unlike you) but he
knows how to smoke a good rock too!

[metallik]

Yeah, DH is a good one. I have a sample with the drop target and it's
a nice change of pace. I just put up my highest score ever - 2.6B or
so - the other day. Got crime wave but only one arrest (gotta be one
of the hardest wiz modes to get points in) .. then got the other
wizard mode Alcatraz multiball, did blah there also. Best was
managing to start my 4th multiball right after getting 4X playfield
promotion from the magazine - scored about 800M from that and modes
before the promotion ran out an I drained.

The music sounds really nice with an amplified sub... great bass lines
and guitar work in it.

[Jim McCune (honda350r)]

Has anyone ever got all the bullets in shoot out ? I think that might
be a software flaw as the clock is running down almost 10 seconds
before the balls ever touch the flippers?

Either there is a software flaw or it's just very hard to do. The most
bullets I have gotten is 5.

If anyone is interested, here you can find few photos of my DH
cleanup-project. It's in quite good shape and it will go on route as
soon as I have time to make a deal with local gas-station.

[pinballtom264]

Does anyone have a scan of the cab sheet, mine is there but dirty I
would love to replace it. Great game this is my third one and I'm
hanging on to it this time!

[Gerry]

Thats a pretty thourough job you did there just to sick it back on
route......

But, looks great and at least the people dropping money in it will get
to play on a nice machine..not like some junk i se in the wild...

Nice job !

I'm hoping that now I will have some time quite trouble free and machine
could actually please some players. Most games that are routed are
usually barely playable, and it's definitely not the way to get today's
youngsters to get exited about pinball. Also game will last in good
shape so after routing I can bring it home, clean it up and keep
playing. As you could see, there are some "nice" hacks from previous
operator, like that external psu for CPU-board, but game works now fine
so I will not touch that. Maybe I'll do some restoration later on.
