    The PS3 "super patch"

    Allow me to flex my Moderator wings here... Calm the hell down. We've waited how long for this patch now? Are you seriously telling me you can't wait a little while longer? I'm glad you are so excited for this patch to come out that you took a day off of work :rolleyes: to enjoy it, but nobody...

    TPA Topics #2: How Much Can/Should FarSight Make TPA Into A Franchise?

    Most tables are going to private collectors, not public locations. Therefore, most pinball players never get the chance to play these new Sterns. That is why the common logic that us trying to be pushed is that if the average person got to play these digitally, they might be inspired to buy a...

    The Official Latest NEWS And INFORMATION Discussion Thread

    I thought it had been made very public knowledge, but PinWiz stepped down from moderator and is no longer updating the news and information. Unfortunately none of us current moderators are being supplied with the same source of information he had. The only reason podcasts had been updated was...

    So I tried Zen pinball HD on android...

    If you come at Zen pinball with a pinball purist mentality, then you're going to hate way too many things about it. Common complaints wind up being about the physics of the ball being too heavy, flippers being too close, ball saves being too easy to re-light, and the 'impossible in real life'...

    Zen Pinball - Star Wars

    Zen physics are what they are. It's kind of like how TPA has a pretty well established look, that you either need to learn to accept (lo res textures and questionable lighting choices) or you'll forever complain about. Zen designs their tables around the performance of their physics. If they had...

    Zen Pinball - Star Wars

    I've said it time and time again...Zen knows how to make its customer base happy.

    Pinball After Dark

    Steve is an incredible collector. I got to visit his "house" in the summer for our pinball league, and it is truly a marvel. He didn't have King Kong, Zingy Bingy, or Wild Horses on display for us though! Probably because kids were invited too. Lot of Python fundraisers going on. FarSight is...

    Season 3 pack removed from all platforms!

    I was told by jaredmorgs that season 3 pass is no longer available on Android, leaving only Steam with it. Since PS3 is still a week and a half away from from having season 3 at all, I highly doubt it will be available then.

    The PS3 "super patch"

    The new UI has yet to go into beta testing, so the odds of that are slim to none.

    Is most running Pinball Arcade on mobile phones and tablets?

    I prefer playing on PS3 because of the large screen TV. Also, I prefer playing with a DualShock controller as opposed to the 360 controller I use on the PC. I've played on iPad 3 and iPhone 5S, but the phone is too small and I don't care for flipping by using my thumbs! People talk about lag...

    The On-Going "What has FarSight said about ___ table?" List Thread

    I'm sorry, what?? FarSight isn't feeling the love, the communal satisfaction with the game, so by having people pay extra and fund one of their projects, that will bring everyone together? Silly consumers, they're so lazy. *searches for sarcasm font* Here's how I've been a 'part of what they...

    TPA Topics #2: How Much Can/Should FarSight Make TPA Into A Franchise?

    I think this is interesting. It would certainly allow for a more experimental to how they sell the games to customers and for how much. I said it with TPA After Dark, so long as there is a way to allow me the user to bring all the tables under one roof, I don't care how it's split up. The $20 a...

    The On-Going "What has FarSight said about ___ table?" List Thread

    You're missing my point. At some point, don't you think a company (never mind it being FarSight) that has had success with their product should stop relying on handouts and instead be able to foot the bill itself?

    The On-Going "What has FarSight said about ___ table?" List Thread

    I've seen this kind of request here and there, and it's always made me wonder, why? Wouldn't you rather FarSight find a way to pay for these things themselves? FarSight is the one that NEEDS the kickstarter, not the customers. Yes, I get that some of the tables we want probably won't happen...

    What are your most-wanted tables?

    How terribly old I must feel when Terminator 3 is described as 'old school'!! That table was made AFTER everyone but Stern had closed up shop. I tend to look at everything before the modern iteration of Stern (which I would say is everything RBION and forward) as just older. True old school is...

    Bummer the wife can't go. You'll have to pick her up something extra special.

    Centaur strategies

    As much as I like going for the orbs shots (yes, in order), I've had much better success getting a high score by shooting nothing more than the queens chamber. Once all those drop targets are down, multiball with 3+ balls becomes so much easier to acquire, and frequently results in having all 5...

    welcome our two new mods jaredmorgs and shutyertrap!

    Dammit, I hate being outed. So yeah that's me, "hollywood", moderator to the stars. Before I take any moderation actions, I first consult with my agent and then poll whoever the lead actors are on set that day as to whether or not a person is being a pinball prick. That way it's not be to...
