    Rudy Yagov :So I guess Funhouse and F-14 Tomcat are your favorite tables? Or is there some incredible coincedence going on? :)

    With Stern Pinball Arcade coming soon how many seasons of TPA do you foresee?

    For PC I get those prices, but I would think along the same line where tables are DLC as Invitro said. There are a lot of great Sterns, and I give them a lot of credit for keeping pinball alive when no other company was in business. I own a LOTR and love it. There are however quality issues...

    I just saw the update, has anything else changed?

    Table of the Week Club...Week 33: BLACK ROSE

    I'm with Gus on this one, nice short strategy list. There's a nice trick too with plunging: if you hit the skill shot (lowest three standup targets called the Torch targets) and immediately drain, you'll get the ball back and you can shoot straight for the locker (which you just opened with the...

    With Stern Pinball Arcade coming soon how many seasons of TPA do you foresee?

    20-30 dollars for one table? That would not be a good pricepoint. On mobile you better not go beyond 9.99....

    With Stern Pinball Arcade coming soon how many seasons of TPA do you foresee?

    I voted 7, but I offcourse hope for more. I think 6 will certainly be done. There's a lot of speculation on how a Stern-app will detract from TPA. You could also make the case that both will benefit from each other. The Stern app will get us as TPA-fans because we know it's a proven product, and...

    Are death saves possible in Pinball Arcade?

    I remember vikingerik mention that he did a few, can't remember which tables or in which thread he mentioned it. I haven't done one as far as I remember.

    PAPA Tutorial:

    This. I love those "tutorials". Not only is it befuddling that Bowen can talk on while doing impossible stuff, also his selfdepreciating commentary is hilarious at times. I also marvel at his ability to let things go, and just say "well, that's pinball" after just being stiffed by a table. The...

    A new app on the way from Stern and Farsight

    This sounds exciting! :) On another note, maybe Stern took a look at Farsight's PR track record and thought that maybe they ought to take point on this one.... I'll have to add though that I'm very happy with reponses the last few months by Farsight employees on this forum and via PM's, like...

    A new app on the way from Stern and Farsight

    I get some of the reasons of splitting up this into a seperate app. As a player who likes to compete for scores and HOF points, it's a bit disappointing. I would love to have all the tables into one app, even it that means that it won't run anymore on an old device. I didn't like the idea of a...

    Hey it's Stuzz!

    Still, my ego took a slight hit the first time I really got serious again about playing real machines. I came off a very nice hot streak on TPA and got my behind handed to me by various real machines :) But I get the people and competition aspect, I enjoy that too. I'm often in awe by the skill...

    Hey it's Stuzz!

    Hi Stuzz, Welcome to the forums, lot's to discover here and a good atmosphere to boot. I think you and Locksley hit the nail on the proverbial head when it comes to the effect (good) virtual pinball can have on searching out the real thing. I did play a lot of pinball in my college days in the...

    Strategy (aka how to pwn)

    Left lock: just live catch it on the lower right flipper, or shoot it up towards the up-kicker and let it bounce back on the right flipper, or deadpass it to the left. It's quite possible to go infinite on this table with max 4 EB's stacked, but any (prolonged) lapse in concentration and you'll...

    Strategy (aka how to pwn)

    The easiest EB to get in my experience has been looping bonus x from the right lower flipper with a deadbounce from the left lower back to the right lower after the loop, just watch out for fast returns: they will trickle over the tip of the flipper, a timely nudge has to be applied. You have...

    And very nicely gives you a new shiny EB when you pass 1M again :)

    Strategy (aka how to pwn)

    Love the controlled MB play, that's where the points are definitely. Takes a lot of patience though to only shoot that right launch lane in single ball play. I don't have the score yet to be talking different strategy but I do tend to go for the Yagov kicker directly, keep up the left flipper...

    Strategy (aka how to pwn)

    Does it handle 100M+ scores? That new PAFSUX score is probably bogus.

    First impressions

    Never played the real one, but seen footage: looks like the real deal to me. I like the feel that the table angle is steep, so the balls get a little acceleration when they go up a bit and then come down, feels authentic. That Yagov kicker scared me at first but can be controlled quite easily...
