Stern Press Release
The T3 pinball design team includes primary members of the same team that brought you the famous and successful T2 pinball machine. It is lead by famed pinball designer Steve Ritchie. In addition to his Terminator 2, Steve is known for his designs of High Speed, Firepower, Black Knight, and Star Trek: The Next Generation. This first game by Steve in many years should be his best ever.
