I sat down last night to play this table (PS3 version) again after quite awhile away from it. Doing so reminded why it had been so long since I played it. This table STINKS. The original table itself is bad enough. The design and layout are terrible and the sound effects are just awful. So...

With the release of Centaur and (hopefully) T2, we get a couple of significant "firsts" from pinball history - Centaur the first to have flipper-controlled rollover lights and T2 the first (or just first Williams?) DMD. So what are some other significant firsts from pinball history? Answer if...

Is it just me or is the music on this table pretty awful? I'm not sure if the original sounds that bad or if it's just the PS3 version or what but it seems really tinny and poor, especially compared to the speech samples and sound effects.

After playing this a handful of times when it came out initially (PS3), clearing all the standard goals, I set it aside with a personal high score of around 8 million. Decided last night to give it another go and found myself enjoying it quite a bit. This was my first run at the table with...

Am I the only one having issues with the plunger for this table on the PS3? The power levels seem very inconsistent and I've had numerous occasions where plunged and the ball didn't move at all.

I have reiterated several times over the last few months that flipper lag is still an issue with the PS3 version of TPA when playing in 720p. I've been adamant that it's still an issue for me playing in 720p. So, yeah, about that....... Seems that, unlike what I thought and could've sworn...

On the intro screen for Taxi, there is the phrase "players take on the roll of being". "Roll" is incorrect. It should be "role". Tabe

So I did the code for Lyman's Lament to try and get the Wizard Goal. After entering the code correctly at least 5 or 6 times, I still did not get Lyman's Lament activated. Then, 2 balls later, Lyman's Lament randomly started (no, I hadn't made the shot 44 times). When it did, instead of...

Since the very first version of TPA, we've been hearing complaints of goals - both standard and wizard - not registering when completed. It happens across all tables. It seems to happen across all platforms. Whether it's the Standard Goals on Funhouse - where I had to complete EVERY goal at...

On at least the PS3 version of this table: 1) The red light for the extra ball on the mirror is a LOT dimmer and less noticeable than the yellow and green lights - to the point where I had to look really closely to even tell it was on when it was on. This is both when it's flashing and when...

As I am down to just one Wizard Goal left to complete them all on Funhouse, I have been making a serious attempt at completing that one goal - the 1,000,000 point Trapdoor shot. Why I am having such a tough time with it, I cannot fathom. I completed it multiple times before I'd finished all of...

Earned 1st place on the Great Camel Race, hit the ramp shot, waited for the "Goal 1 Complete" message and.......nothing. Pretty irritating since it's the last Wizard Goal I need on this table... This is on PS3, btw. Tabe

Last night on the PS3, I did a very soft launch of a ball, such that it barely cleared the launch area. The camera stayed fixed on the plunger and somehow got a second ball launched. So I had multiball going but could not see what was going on because the camera was still on a plunger view. Tabe

Not referring to high scores but stuff within the game. Like: - most Rudy Hits in one game? (~60) - highest Super Frenzy total (~4,500,000) - highest Trap Door bonus (3,000,000 - though I did 5,000,000 a bunch of times on PHOF; for some reason, I struggle like mad at times with the multiball)...

As mentioned in another thread, once Standard Goals for a table have been achieved, they are replaced by the Wizard Goals and no longer visible. Let us toggle over to see them, please - even after they're completed. Tabe

We've all had a chance to put a lot of time into the various tables in TPA now that it's been out awhile. My question: Has playing the TPA versions of any table changed your opinion of that table in general? Hate something you previously liked? Like something you previously hated? In my...

I have just started playing Bride of Pinbot on the PS3, so my high scores are still pretty low. I recently scored about 15,000,000, good enough for "High Score 3". When the list of high scores was displayed, however, the list included two of the pre-installed scores - one for about 16,000,000...

Got a Rudy gulp last night that started as a Rudy Hit - it played the "Ow!" sound but gave me the 250,000 for a Gulp. However, it then immediately put the ball on the right plunger and forced me to launch it from there. The camera did NOT shift to show the plunger. This was on the PS3. Tabe

This is on the PS3 version: Got a Rudy Hit and, after doing so, the ball shot left as if through the side of Rudy's head and went directly into the Hidden Hallway. It did not bounce over any dividers, it passed through. Tabe

This is very definitely in the nitpicky category for issues: On the high score display screen, where TPA shows you the 5 top scores for a particular game, the numbers sometimes overlap, making the display look ugly. This seems to be most prominent with the display of 7s but occurs with the...
