Go on then!

I've always liked the old-skool chunky Barcrests for looks, and I think Stack Attack has to be one of the most dull looking machines ever thought up.

Images too if you can be arsed.

TAW has got to be one of the best of late, also like CCP. Worst, got to be bellshite's Kong or Globals Powerlines, they look so poo.

I've never actually seen a TAW in real life, but granted it is an attractive fruit. a bit like a pineapple in that respect.

I haven't really put much thought into this myself, but my new sig is sure to distract the attention away from this...

Stack Attack takes it for me - curely one of the crappest, most uninviting designs for a machine ever?

Yeah its boring because it has no images, just high/low trail. Good machine though. Most attractive machine atm is CCP.

Also i find the repetitive BFG boards are so boring. Wealth of wealth, ant and dec, monopoly etc etc... so boring.

Yeah Stack attack and its later clone Invincable look pretty cheap and naff. Most empire machines normally look pretty poor too.

As for best looking I quite like the look of some bellfruits like hells bells and dough ho ho even though as machines they are pretty terrible. I remember an old global called reel good time (think) which looked pretty impressive too, shame about the gameplay

I also quite like the look of all those juggling jackpots clones and the actual game theme. Just a shame they are probably some of the worst coded machines about.

black and white lo tech lol, well it is a great machine with a great streak on £5 settings, just spins in £5 every other credit for like 10 credits

I always liked the old skool reds, and impulse always made interesting machines.

And speaking of shite, i can't look past stack attack.

It's almost like they felt guilty about their jobs and wanted to discourage people from playing machines.

stack attack must have been designed on a friday afternoon and they were in a rush to get down the boozer, sooooo basic. favourite design has too be pie/giant gems/6 shooter. very pleasing on the eye and VERY profitable :D
