Theory debunked

by | Dec 28, 2006 | 1 comment

I tested a friend’s theory that listening to AC/DC whilst playing pinball makes you better at pinball. I’m sorry to report that this is unfortunately untrue. Neither Thunderstruck nor T.N.T. improved my performance in World Cup Soccer ’94 on PinMAME. I haven’t tried Shook Me All Night Long yet.

    I think those are slow songs for pinball. Try Given the Dog a Bone, Ballbreaker, Snowballed, and Shotdown in Flames.

    It works for me and most first-person-shooters. I have a playlist with fast songs for when I play, but not quite trash metal.
