    I hate Stern

    vikingerik makes a good point, and I never really thought about it before. I don't think it's a specific Stern thing though, a lot of WMS tables are the same - but the most memorable ones of them, really care about matching their callouts and animations feeding an increasing enthusiasm with the...

    Portrait mode in PS4 ?

    I feel like a scatch in a record here.... it doesn't matter what FarSight thinks it is, just look at the question from the consumer perspective. The consumer who wants a regular portrait mode, not cabinet. It's really not too complicated. :P

    Is Scared Stiff an overrated table?

    I tried the real table since I created this thread, and I like it a lot more. Basically, on TPA what you get from the original table is the theme and basic playfield layout. The physics and the experience you get from playing the table can never be replicated perfectly, and without it, I think...

    Pack 20 Screenshots

    Wow, Cue Ball Wizard looks really good! Looks like a quality step up, back to the look of the first few table packs. Also, I still don't get why SAM simulation would have to go through emulation, when they should be able to get the source directly from Stern.

    Underrated Pins Thread (videos)

    I realise that High Speed was a milestone when it was created, and basically introduced the concepts that would eventually draw me into pinball many years later. But tell me, what do you get from High Speed than The Getaway doesn't give? On The Getaway you have the awesome gear system where you...

    Portrait mode in PS4 ?

    It's still two entirely different things, and portrait mode already exists for mobile devices. Cabinet modes are supposedly upgrades similar to pro packs, while portrait mode is just a different camera viewport.

    Portrait mode in PS4 ?

    But it's completely off-topic, bro :P

    FunHouse at WDW: Fib?

    Why not? I guess it would make sense to have modern Disney licenses like X-Men og Avengers there, but it's pretty common to see older tables in amusement parks.

    The thing is, High Speed doesn't do much that Getaway doesn't also do.

    Play The PS4 Version Today ! (In Select Locations)

    Still, 60 FPS should be a higher priority than a high resolution.

    Portrait mode in PS4 ?

    Then I did understand you correctly, and my point still stands - we aren't talking about cabinet mode, we are talking about a regular old rotated screen. No matter what FS says, cabinet mode has no relevance to this :P

    Pro Pinball

    I love pre-rendering, myself. Some VP tables look much better than the TPA version because they are actual photos as opposed to live rendered 3D models. Hell, I think Diablo 2 looks much better than Diablo 3, and I never understood why anyone thinks otherwise.

    Medieval Madness reproduction

    Have you seen their album covers? :P

    I hate Stern

    Punisher, play Spider-Man, Iron Man and AC/DC :) I think multiballs stopped feeling climactic back around the mid 90's, but at least Iron Man does that well.

    Table Pack #20 speculation

    Nothing keeps WMS from raising their prices though, when they see the success FS are having with TPA.

    Table Pack #20 speculation

    When it comes to FarSight and legal issues, one should never make assumptions, I've learned that much :P

    Medieval Madness reproduction

    The tables aren't bland, I meant the theme. I don't really "feel" the theme with any of the tables, and I think you gotta be a big fan of the band in question to really enjoy it. As a "theme-less" pinball table, AC/DC is an amazing piece.

    New hotness on iOS & Android: Revenge of the Rob-o-Bot

    It's not the same company, but Color Monkey licensed their engine to use it on Rob-o-Bot.

    Live Catching - Is it possible?

    I don't think more realistic physics is something you can just buy your way to. :) There are a lot of real tables out there where post passes are impossible or at least pretty difficult/random. :)

    Possible season 3 tables based on polling results

    At least I think a lot of the modes can be timed out, if progress is what you are going for. "Beating the game" without buy-ins sounds like a great wizard goal. I hate that penny pinching philosophy about the design though, even if that's what has dictated a lot of what we love about pinball.
