    Crystal Caliburn for iOS is getting closer (now out)

    Sweet. Looking forward to it.

    PC Pinball (DOS / Win9x era)

    I bought some PC Pinball games recently (about 3 weeks ago) Here are my brief thoughts on the games: Pinball Gold Pack (via GOG): Dreams and Fantasies are technically very outdated, but are quite fun despite. Illusions would have been better than the aforementioned games if it had options (a...

    Mac version!

    I agree. I think a mouse would make a good plunger substitute.

    PC Pinball (DOS / Win9x era)

    Having spent some more time with Little Wing Pinball's tables (which are an absolute blast), I've grown quite accustomed to their default controls. Little Wing Pinball defaults: Z Key = Left Flipper Slash Key = Right Flipper Enter = Plunger X Key = Left Nudge Period Key = Right Nudge Space =...

    Mac version!

    While I'm not interested in playing the PC or Mac versions (largely due to not having a powerful enough computer), I agree there needs to be customizable keyboard controls; the current controls seem awkward, judging from the posts. Also, there aren't too many pinball games on computer that...

    Release Date Confirmation

    That's good to hear. I can wait another week and have the points setup.

    Latest NEWS And INFORMATION On FarSight Studios' The Pinball Arcade

    Did you call FarSight and Microsoft about the delayed release? I only ask since I still see the date as March 28th. With not much news about the game, FarSight not talking about the release, and Major Nelson deleting his tweet, it seems inevitable this game will be delayed for at least a week...

    Help me talk sense into Teamxbox forum users!

    I posted a response before this thread even came up. The "I agree with everyone, I have no need for another pinball game" comment made me register and post in that thread. I think everyone has a right to an opinion and it's fine to prefer one game over the other, but saying there's only room for...

    PC Pinball (DOS / Win9x era)

    Yeah, I think they should make those sale prices permanent. Their games have been on sale since September of last year, so maybe they will keep it. I bought all of their tables, recently. Their games are actually really good, but not $35 good; definitely not as good as Pro Pinball, which each...

    PC Pinball (DOS / Win9x era)

    The reviewer is actually a pretty decent video pinball player. On the link you quoted me, the reviewer's high scores are on the far-right corner under "Additional Documents". Eight Ball Deluxe and Tristan were designed by Little Wing Pinball, a small indie Japanese-developer. The reviewer on...

    Jersey Jack Pinball

    This looks to be a really promising table. Jersey Jack could very well be a legit rival for Stern, which can only be good for the market. As for an emulation on this table via The Pinball Arcade, the only platform I could see fit being emulated on is the Wii U, due to the tablet controller...

    Pro Pinball

    Pro Pinball is not only still the absolute best video pinball series, but it's also in my top three all-time video game franchises. Their last three games are utterly fantastic; even The Web (the weakest table) is great. All four tables sport rulesets and layouts competitive with real life...

    Zen Pinball - Favorite Table?

    Not counting Marvel Pinball, my favorites would be Earth Defense and Excalibur. Both have very interesting themes and sport great layouts with good rulesets.

    How did your love for pinball begin?

    I was a huge fan of arcades as a kid, though I liked video games more. I always gave pinball attention, though. Whenever it was available, I would always play a nearly all the tables and greatly enjoyed it. However my true love for the game began with experiencing Devil Crash on the PC-Engine...

    Where Do You Play Real World Pinball Tables?

    Living around the New England area (South-Eastern CT), there is a very cool place in New Hampshire called Pinball Wizard Arcade. http://www.pinballwizardarcade.com/ Around 80+ tables and plenty of video games. I went there once and most of their machines are in fairly good condition.

    Do you think the Death Save is cheating or just part of the game?

    I'm mixed on it, but mostly in favor of this move. To me, I think it's just part of the game and very risky to perform since it's very likely to tilt the table than save the pinball. On the other hand, most tournament organizations, such as PAPA, think it's an illegal move. In most pinball...

    Marvel Pinball - Favorite Table?

    Out of the two main packs, I vastly prefer Vengeance & Virtue, due to Moon Knight and Thor; the other two tables are good as well. The first pack is good, but the second pack just takes it to a new level. Thoughts on the upcoming Avengers Chronicles pack? I hope it's as good as the recent...

    Other hobbies?

    My hobbies are mainly video games (especially retro gaming), internet (my biggest addiction), and television (for sports and cartoons). I grew up with the NES, SNES, and Sega Genesis; however what sold me on retro gaming was my grandmother buying me an Atari 7800 along with a few games (mostly...

    iOS/Android Pinball

    Since there are quite a few people on this forum that have a mobile device, I thought I'd make this thread. I have both an iPod Touch 4th generation and iPad 2. Here's my two cents on the pinball games I've bought from the app store: The Pinball Arcade needs no explanation; bought it, played...

    PC Pinball (DOS / Win9x era)

    Here's couple great PC pinball sites I've discovered ever since I became interested in the genre: http://www.lastbandit.com/pinrevue.html It's an oldie, but goodie. This was one of the first video pinball sites I've visited since I became interested in the genre...
