    With all due respect, f**k the Red Sox. Sent from my SM-T710 using Tapatalk

    Who here plays MAME and other Emus?

    Of the PS1/2 JRPGs, FFIX would be my choice. IMO it's aged better than VII and VIII especially graphics wise and it has the best soundtrack and characters. I'd also go for Tony Hawk 3. If you can get it, Raiden Project. Sent from my SM-T710 using Tapatalk

    Yeah. Good point. Wish I'd thought of it myself! Sent from my SM-T710 using Tapatalk

    BlahCade Weekly Zen Tournament

    That wasn't a problem in my game. It's fairly obvious especially with the Multiball upgrade that keeping multiball going is the key to scoring big. Full Madness Multiball plus the odd castle keeps things ticking over nicely. Sent from my SM-T710 using Tapatalk

    BlahCade Weekly Zen Tournament

    Quick question. With 3 attempts your best score is used, right? I would question the usefulness of rewind in Survival or any timed/infinite ball save mode, but I didn't make the rules ;)

    Monster Bash Remake announced

    The giant color DMD on the higher-spec AFM remakes is something to behold though. I really liked it.

    Monster Bash Remake announced

    They were taking deposits for it at the York Show last weekend.

    Junkyard: what to aim for

    ToTAN has more modes, more interesting modes, better call-outs, better music, looks better and is... well... just overall better than JY. I also played way more ToTAN for real than JY, so there may be a teensy bit of bias there.

    SPA VR for Oculus Rift

    That level of opacity has got to be pretty hard to accomplish in a company as small as Farsight!

    Junkyard: what to aim for

    You need to get the dryer, and eventually it will be the last piece of junk left... I always felt it was a major flaw in the design of the rules, that after going to Outer Space, you didn't have to collect all the junk again. I know it gets more and more difficult to collect junk (but...

    Junkyard: what to aim for

    For what it's worth, if you do own JY in TPA, load it up just for the instructions. One thing that TPA definitely does better than FX3 is the level of detail in the instructions.

    Junkyard: what to aim for

    The main aim in Junk Yard is to collect all the pieces of Junk (various ways to do this - complete DOG Video mode levels, from Magic Bus awards, skill shots, and from the ramp or toilet when "Collect Junk" is lit). Collecting certain combinations of Junk lights up each of the five* modes at the...

    Favorite bash toys

    You don't directly hit the UFO or the Martians with the ball, though. The UFO activates by hitting the drop target (or hole) behind the force field, and the Martians activate by hitting their respective stand-up targets.

    Favorite bash toys

    Does the "Mist" ball moving across the playfield in Dracula count as a "bash toy"?

    Is this it for Farsight / Pinball Arcade?

    So far there are 4 tables out of 100 that are in both TPA and FX3. Some of those 100 are Gottliebs and Sterns (and Dr Who: Master Of Time ...) which will never be in FX3. FX3 WMS tables won't be appearing on mobile devices for "a while". Reports of the death of TPA / Farsight are somewhat...

    Who here plays MAME and other Emus?

    Back when I played around with MAME, my go-to games were: Mr Do! (is this a "classic"? not sure...) 1942 (played it a ton in a pub I used to frequent) One game I wasn't able to find on MAME (or could I? maybe I did? dunno) was one called Super Locomotive. I played the heck out of that one...

    Zen Pinball FX3 Williams Pinball Volume One

    Dracula also has Lightning flippers, but was originally designed for regular flippers. The European distributors (the Germans, specifically, I think) requested Lightning flippers to make the game harder, so WMS complied. Because Dracula obviously isn't hard enough to start with.

    Pack 2 - Williams' collection guesses

    A DMD for Fun House would be great, because it was I believe originally planned to be the first WMS with a DMD.

    Feedback and issues on FX3 Williams Pinball Vol. 1 - Release version

    I'm pretty sure you can backhand the lock (and by extension, the Extra Ball standup) on a real Fish Tales. Of course I've not run into one in a long time (and the last one I did, was at a show, and wasn't working properly...). Backhand shots are a weakness on all Zen's tables. Shots that...
