I got the Taxi. He put the thread on hold when I told him I was getting it and was never updated.
The game is beautiful. Funny enough I come back to my Diner which I restored myself more often.
If I would not have wanted a Taxi for so long, I might consider a trade but I fear to regret.
Diner is awesome and Taxi sucks! You don't want that game. You won't regret for a second getting rid of it. If you want, I can help you out and take that awful game off your hands
Seriously though, I'm a big Diner fan. In fact, I even prefer its theme and art over Taxi's. It's just a gorgeous pin. But, in my opinion, Taxi's gameplay takes the cake. In Diner, if each food item had a specific target and they were spread out over the playfield, like the passengers in Taxi, it would have been perfect. I don't feel that serving the customers in Diner is as fun and important as picking up passengers in Taxi. Anyway, that's just my two cents.
If you ever consider letting go of your Taxi, and you SHOULD, please let me know. It will go to a loving family, I promise. I have an eight-year-old son and I would love to start him at pinball with Taxi. He sees me playing it on Pinball Arcade all the time and asks me when are we going to get one. I tell him Taxis are hard to come by and are usually expensive, but we'll get one soon. I just recently moved to Canada from Brazil and I can only afford one pin (or maybe two if I can find a bargain). I would love for it to be Taxi.
Thanks for letting me know you got the game.
Cheers!
