    Why are some of the tables pink?

    Oh, the pink. You coming off the mobile versions, it's gonna be very pronounced! We've been complaining about it for some time. I can tell by the Centaur pic you've got post processing turned on. If you turn it off, it helps a little. Not much, but a little. Nobody has ever gottten an answer to...

    Comparisons with the real table

    There are a couple of factors in play here. First and foremost, TPA is tuned to make you feel like a pinball god. That means whereas in real life your ball might rattle around as you go for a ramp, in TPA it will make a clean entrance more times than not. Balls shooting out of eject holes are...

    are the rubbers on the flippers worn down?

    Plays the same as always as far as I'm concerned. I've played the real deal quite a few times in the past coupla months, and it center drains a lot there too.

    Table Pack 20 Announced! Cue Ball Wizard™ and El Dorado City of Gold™

    Even the worst pinball is better than no pinball. I still have my copy of Microsoft Pinball Arcade, and despite the fact you couldn't aim for crap, especially on CBW, I played it a bunch. Why? Because it was the only pinball game available to me that featured real tables. If you don't like the...

    Table Pack #20 speculation

    No, I don't know anything about the negotiations. I do know it's not that they are at risk of losing the Williams / Bally license to anybody else. FarSight picked from a list pretty much every table that you'd be interested in, and they and only they can do those tables. From that list, they...

    Table Pack #20 speculation

    Well now I can admit to one of the two tables I played up at FarSight this last time being Cue Ball Wizard. I pulled into the parking lot and it was being delivered, right then. Gotta say, not knowing what to be aiming at and just wacking the ball around, I played for a good long while. Rather...

    NBA Fastbreak

    Hehe, total curb stomp! Yeah, we aint never gonna be seein' dat one. Which sucks, because it is one of my faves. Bobby said dealing with the NFL Players Association way back when they were doing football games was none to easy, and that was with current rosters. You can only imagine what it'd...

    Graphical Comparison

    Nope, don't see any difference at all :rolleyes: Weird how you can tell how floaty the physics were in PHOF just by watching. I do kinda miss the glass reflection though. Or at least as an option.

    Pinball Arcade: Season Two Pass [Information]

    I'm not sure they're doing credit for Season 1 tables. The only reason I think they were doing Season 2 credit was that it was offered 2 packs in and a lot of people cried foul. If you want to try though, contact support at FarSight via email.

    Rollergames

    Huh? Wha? Somebody call my name? Rollergames? Oh hell yeah!! That used to be 'Seinfelds' attitude when it came to the cereal boxes. I don't remember if it was Jerry himself or not, but someone on that show hated the practice of 'greeking out' name brands. That is where you cover up some of the...

    Pinball Arcade Portrait Mode Launcher

    And the PC crowd starts working it's magic! I just need to figure out how to rotate my monitor without having a stand :confused:

    Timed Tournament?

    Hey, at least it's an attempt at making things better! The problem before was that some of those scores just flat out became unobtainable once you realized how long you'd have to play to beat them. Therefore you'd give up playing all together. With 20 minutes, you know where the end is. If you...

    No, VP, get out of my IRL!

    Just happened 2 weeks back while playing Bram Stoker's Dracula. Exactly as you described too, where first ball drained and nothing changed. Next time though, as soon as one ball went down, it went into bonus collection mode and the other ball just drained. Just goes to show, even the real deal...

    Do you score well and not login?

    I'm automatically logged in every time I fire up the PS3, so no, I don't do this!

    Pinball Arcade: Season Two Pass [Information]

    I just sent my receipt in for packs 11 and 12. Wonder if the credit is only toward future PS3 TPA purchases or if it can be used for other platforms. Glad this got brought up again as I'd totally forgotten about it!

    New High Resolution PS4 screenshots (place here!)

    Nah, that's exactly what they should be going for with a 'dark' setting. Some people enjoy turning off the lights and only letting the machine light the way. I find it hard as hell to play that way, but there is a certain beauty to it, and it's also a whole new challenge. In a lot of ways, since...

    The (New and Improved) Rules of Sin

    Yep, I tried the logging out thing and then it opened the pdf. And holy crap, Sean! I knew some of the basics, but that's the first time I've seen just how detailed you've gotten with this. Wow. I didn't get too far before realizing I couldn't just peruse and understand. I'll have to reserve...

    Do you think Season 3 will be better than 2?

    I understand not liking a table and all, but only giving it one ball to impress you? Even if that's an exaggeration and you gave each table one game, that's not enough! There are quite a few tables that I didn't care for until 20 games in, and now I play 'em all the time. You own the tables...
