    A new app on the way from Stern and Farsight

    And I probably care only if it's on PC. Or XBox360, since I have one somewhere. If enough stuff comes out on tiny-screen devices, I might start looking for a textbook to Learn to Stop Worrying and Love the Mobile. But it would probably be financial suicide to not release on console.

    Top 5-10 Pinballs every made - Pro talk

    I think it's the Trunk, then the sound. The Trunk really was an amazing toy back in 1995. And I think the awesome sound is mostly the music and effects, which I think are both in best of all time territory. The voice is interesting maybe just female voices are so rare in pinball... I don't...

    Top 5-10 Pinballs every made - Pro talk

    I thought it's designed to freak people out. :) Well, it did a few people when I did it. In any case, it doesn't make this aspect of WWater as good as AFM, which is all I was saying. (In AFM, in TPA anyway, the last blue light seems to be all five with equal probability. Seriously. This is...

    Barely more new good tebles ?

    Raven isn't a Bally. (Rollergames & Bad Cats aren't either. Or Fire! But the others are.)

    Top 5-10 Pinballs every made - Pro talk

    Second, after WCS. But WCS has Larry DeMar listed as co-designer on IPDB; that's new to me. The ToM software was done by Jeff Johnson, whose previous credits are the Trudeau games CftBL, JD, and Flintstones.

    Top 5-10 Pinballs every made - Pro talk

    It seems like I always need the Acrobats (the right orbit) to start wizard mode. And on WWater it's always the 3rd lock, after the 1st Vacation Jackpot. I think AFM is much better in this regard. Maybe I haven't read everything in its forum, but I still don't understand what stacking gets you...

    PC Tournament 2015-09-25: F-14, WhD, FT, TOff, ElDo, HD3, BS, LCA

    EOS, I sense you're getting excited to duplicate your last month's success in Gold! I'm surprised you didn't mention double score for Tee'd Off. Here's the top 10 on Tee'd Off from the June/July PC Bronze tourney (the 1st one on PC), as it was 24 minutes before the tourney end (it's the last...

    No "Legal Notice"?

    Good question. I highly doubt they forgot. Either a license wasn't necessary, or modifying the table to display the license wasn't necessary. I'm not sure what you mean by "legal notice" though. Are you asking why F-14 doesn't something on it to indicate that a license was used, or why TPA...

    Yep. I loved this when I was a kid, but kind of ignored it since then as I moved on to DMD tables for serious pinball. I think it deserves to be one of the all-time greats. At least a lot higher than #114 IPDB / #94 Pinside.

    Own tables on multiple platforms? What's the platform you use the most?

    I got started on the X360 with the Williams Collection or Hall of Fame or whatever it was called. I got the PC Steam version the day or week it was released. I play only PC Steam because PC is MASTER RACE. EDIT: Just kidding, we all know WILLIAMS IS MASTER RACE!

    Which username are you talking about? Is it Montana_Frank? Do you really think that name and its variations are chosen as often as Pinwizard and its variations?

    (An attempt at) The top 40 TPA players from leaderboard scores

    Feel free to bring up a score I've blocked and why you think it should not be blocked. Everything is open for discussion. My goal is to be as correct as possible when I choose to block (or not block) a score, based on all available evidence. I don't often reach that goal, because it's a lot...

    Lawlor vs Ritchie (Steel Cage Match)

    Oh boy! :) OK first, in case you don't know who he is, he's a pinball artist of the 1970's. All his art was for Bally machines. His most famous machines were Fireball (his first), Wizard!, and Capt. Fantastic. He also did Dolly Parton, Nitro Ground Shaker, Ro Go, Air Aces, Mata Hari, The...

    Table pack #43 speculation

    Phooey on that, the voice samples are awesome. Now, the real machine's flippers would tend to get weak on the few I played, and the ramp is very steep. So the ramp would become almost unmakeable, shots to it would go up, fall back down, and you'd hear De Niro saying "NO!" over and over. That...
