    TV Pinball (Favorite not Best)

    It's between ST:TNG and Baywatch for me. Yes, Baywatch. Ultimately I went for ST:TNG. The ST:TNG in the East Slope bar at Sussex Uni must go down as perhaps the most abused pinball table ever. (Hint: students + alcohol + pinball = raucous stuff.)

    First Table

    Playing - either Paragon or Space Invaders; both were in the same arcade at the campsite my family owned, and where I spent most of my summers. There was also a Williams(?) EM called Stardust, but I don't recall playing that. That would have been in 1980/81 or so. Owned - does one of those...

    Fantasy Poll: Buy A Pinball Table!

    I voted Ghostbusters (LE or Premium, obviously). That table kicks my butt. I can't even finish one mode, let alone progress towards anything good. Multiball? Maybe if I get lucky. But I love it. And that Subway ramp is something to behold.

    Fantasy Poll: Buy A Pinball Table!

    You can buy one real pinball table. It has to be a brand new table that is being manufactured today* Where there are multiple versions of a table (Pro, Premium, LE, etc.) it's assumed you can purchase whichever version you want. What are you gonna get? Remakes (Medieval Madness) and...

    Lyman's Lament

    A lot of these goals are triggered by the table playing a specific sound or animation. Particularly during multiballs, those sounds/animations just don't get played because the table overrides them with whatever else is going on. I'm pretty sure in Monster Bash, the Special goal is triggered...

    Favorite Movie Table (Any Era)

    You can't edit a poll once it's up. Only way to do it is to create a new thread/poll and ask nicely for the original thread to be closed.

    Favorite Movie Table (Any Era)

    Hmm, I can choose all of the options if I want to. But I chose one, and I chose Jurassic Park.

    When are we supposed to be getting Ghostbusters?

    Some of us believe (but have no way of proving) that Stern started to "bake in" the rights for a digital version of all their tables into their licensing from around the time of Metallica or Star Trek. I'm one such believer and if I had to guess now, I'd say from Star Trek onwards. Hence why...

    PC - Bug Bug with video mode?

    I think the problem is more that the camera gets stuck on the DMD when Video Mode ends, when it was an award from the Database kickout (left saucer below the left loop - the one that usually generates the "Get Out!" quote and increments that jackpot). Not sure, but it may not re-enable the...

    Mac - Request TPA variations?

    It slipped quietly into the night... Really since TPA now requires a "T" for "Teen" rating (at least on iOS and Android), and since gore-tastic tables such as Starship Troopers are in the game, I think the requirement for a "Pinball After Dark" isn't necessary any longer, nor has it been for a...

    When are we supposed to be getting Ghostbusters?

    Is it possible they're trying to get all platforms released simultaneously? That would possibly explain why some delays.

    BlahCade 102: Trololo

    Stupid question, I know, but what happened to 101? Or did you just not create a thread for it? (I do follow on Twitter, but Twitter is hard to follow, so I don't really follow it - you follow? New posts on the forum stand out much more.)

    Master List of Issues Within the PC Version

    Okay, so it looks like there was a fix (maybe much wailing by affected users forced Gabe to backtrack?), but the only two games I've ever encountered on Steam that had the DX9/DX11 launch options were TPA and Civ5. Granted my Steam library is not exactly huge and is mostly populated with AAA...

    Master List of Issues Within the PC Version

    As has been mentioned above in this thread, it's believed that this is a Steam update issue and not TPA-related.

    Master List of Issues Within the PC Version

    I just tried it, and got the same result. It sure looks like a change to the way Steam works. Annoying.

    Master List of Issues Within the PC Version

    There was a Steam client update yesterday. I'm suspicious now. Sent from my VS985 4G using Tapatalk

    Table Pack #64 Speculation

    #63 is going to be Wipeout, we're pretty sure about that. On to #64! What's it going to be? Ever the eternal optimist, I'm still going to bank on The Shadow until it's The Shadow. Then, I'll start going for Corvette.

    Paragon - first impressions

    I found it odd as well. Not having a choice between 3 and 5-ball play is understandable - unlike tables like Big Shot and Genie, the scoring stays the same whether it's 3 or 5-ball, so why ever play 3 balls? What I don't get is the choice to go with 3-ball when every Paragon I've ever played...
