    Buying a PS4 just for Pinball Arcade

    Yeah, I've also had problems with the rubber on the sticks wearing out. I still think the PS4 controller overall is better quality when brand new. Both my Xbone controllers drive me nuts when playing Madden for instance (the right stick will get stuck in one direction which is really infuriating...

    Buying a PS4 just for Pinball Arcade

    Welcome! You're in for a real treat as the tables play much, MUCH better than the hall of fame and the graphics are of course vastly improved as well...and of course the sheer amount of tables is simply mind-blowing. As someone who owns both the Xbone and PS4, I would definitely recommend the...

    Switchting TPA from Console to PC

    As Eldar said, when it comes to game performance, it really depends on your graphics card. The PC version provides much better graphics than the mobile version, so it does require more horsepower, but you can get by with a fairly cheap PC just as long as it doesn't have intergrated graphics...

    Request Gottlieb Pro Football

    Played one a couple years ago and loved how fast it was. I know some people think all EMs are slow, but it's just not the case, which is awesome.

    Request Gottlieb Pro Football

    There have been a couple of these for sale in my area recently. It does look cool. @Kolchak agreed. Grand Slam is great.

    New Official Poll: Pick the first table of season 7

    I like my pinball like I like my women (wide in the hips)...so bring 'em both! That said, I voted for Paragon out of love for hairy.

    These pro modes are such crap and offer little value.

    Yeah, been dreaming of this since day 1.

    Bigfoot at Big Bear?

    One of Jay's favorite side-hobbies is to dress up in a bigfoot costume and roam the woods in order to attract more tourists and bigfoot seekers to the area in an effort to boost the economy. Looks like it's finally paying off!

    How Is The Original Pro Pinball Still So Good!?

    Same here. Plus the ramps are skinny as hell.

    How Is The Original Pro Pinball Still So Good!?

    The ball in TPA still only reacts to the geometry on a flat surface though, so I wouldn't think that would limit the physics engine (if anything, it would enchnace it). The 3D environment only makes a difference graphically-speaking as far as I know. If you look at PHOF vs. TPA current physics...

    Pro Pinball

    I just really like the flow of the playfield. Maybe nostalgia plays a part too.

    How Is The Original Pro Pinball Still So Good!?

    Good points, but do either of those affect the physics engine in general? It doesn't seem like they would. ROM emulation requires more CPU, but I mean Pro Pinball ran on Windows 95 machines, so their advanced physics engine requires very little resources. I guess the Barnstorm guys were just so...

    How Is The Original Pro Pinball Still So Good!?

    I've been asking this same question for a loooong time. With each passing year, it becomes more and more mind-boggling how companies like Farsight haven't caught up to 20 year-old physics tech.

    That's a virtual ton of content. Very cool.

    Hairy using his shift key? What's all this madness??? :D

    Sweet! Nice job on scoring the scoop, boys.

    Is there an actual pinball controller for sale?

    I think so, but have only used it on PC so not sure. The only problem I can foresee is configuring the buttons, which might not be possible on consoles. The defaults almost certainly aren't optimized for pinball (most people buy them for fighting games).

    Is there an actual pinball controller for sale?

    +1 for X-Arcade. I have the Tankstick which has dual pinball buttons on each side, so you can use the 2nd button for nudging.

    DiRT Showdown free at Humblebundle.com

    I have to say the Monthly Bundles are insanely good deals as well. Just got XCOM 2 and several other games all for $12. Each of the other titles are highly rated on Steam, so the value is crazy. https://www.humblebundle.com/monthly/p/february_2017_monthly
