Hacker Debuts the Bill Paxton Pinball Machine

by Warren Riddle on March 18, 2010 at 06:30 AM

Builder extraordinaire Ben Heck, renowned in the tech world for his amazingly creative and unique contraptions, has just put the finishing touches on a new, hilariously awesome pinball machine. Heck devoted his custom-made gaming masterpiece to actor Bill Paxton, who starred in the sci-fi classic 'Aliens' (although he may be better remembered for his masterful role in 'Weird Science' under legendary director John Hughes.)

Engadget is providing in-depth analysis and exclusive footage of the pinball grand opening, including a demonstration of gameplay and a description of the construction process. While Heck doesn't address his next ingenious plan, he should at least consider designing a Bill Pullman machine. Given the symbiotic relationship and intertwining careers of the two actors, the lack of some Bill P. pinball confusion just doesn't seem quite right. [From: Engadget]
