Re: Need your opinion: Which multi-board to buy?

by Scott Caldwell <lscottcaldwell@[EMAIL PROTECTED] > May 20, 2008 at 08:55 PM

I have the 60-in-1 (grade A) and have only noticed a few issues with it,
like the loudness on Scramble and joystick control issues on a few games
(can't remember which ones at the moment).  I am using an 8-way.  I
thought Gyruss would be terrible with it, but I played one of my best
games in a long time on it the other day.
