    Free play pinball in London's West End!

    Two tables in excellent condition on free play (Fish Tales and Gilligan's Island) in the Superdry store on Regent Street! Only round the corner from work, so had five or so games today. There was a lad about 11/12 who was hammering away as well, looked a bit sheepish at the amount of time he'd...

    Retro v Modern

    My introduction to pinball came through playing Pinball Dreams/Illusions on the Amiga, which really switched me on to the silver ball. After that I used to play whatever was in the local bowling alley (I held top score on Streetfighter 2), and have played the odd table in RL when I have had the...

    Gor/Gar lights stay lit between games?

    Let's say I ligth 'Gor' on ball 3 then it drains - the Gor light stays lit onto the next new game, meaning I only need to light Gar to trigger the nedxt snake pit level etc. Is this a bug, or how it is in RL?

    Is this table a bit one-dimensional?

    It seems to me that the only realy point on this tabkle is to keep shooting the shuttle ramp and eventually you metamorphose the Bride and then activate the Big Wheel and eventually get the Billion shot? Then you might try and go for the combo loops for the back door billion, but that seems to...

    question about the table - shield

    I can't work out what the lights are in the shield in the lower half of the playfield - Earl of Ego etc - what are these, how are they lit, what are the benefits etc? I can't seem to work out what they are and seem to bear no relation to heading for the Battle for the Kingdom? Thanks

    Is it my telly or the game?

    It was set to 720p. I set it to 1080i and it jumped into focus. There is still a problem of glare blowing out some of the lights (particularly the illusions on ToM) but perhaps the update will fix that. Either way the game is awesome.

    Thanks Farsight!!

    Love it. Stuck a call of duty in the drive the other day, played for 20 minutes, then back on TPA. It's all I want to play. Superb.

    Is it my telly or the game?

    Switched my xbox to 1080i (my tv does not support 1080p I think), and it is a massive improvement (but still not as good as I am sure it could be. Still, the game just better, and hopefully the update will make it as good as its possible to be. Loving it.

    Or even a different cable - say HDMI over YpbPr?

    Is it my telly or the game?

    I am playing on a 32in TV, Xbox 360. On ToM, ToTAN and Ripleys, it is simply impossible to read any of the writing on the table. I would think for example that I should be able to read the illusions on ToM or the Jewels on Tom, but nope. Nothing. It is a combination of wierd overly bright...

    360 - Bug Graphics showing which ball you are on goes blank

    I thought you could only stack up 2 extra balls on this table, max? But I assume that this means when you lose, one you can add another up to a maximum of two?
