    Zen Pinball - Avengers Chronicles

    I picked up the pack and really am enjoying it. I like video pinball in general and usually pick up any table available whether it be TPA, ZEN, OR PINBALLISTIK. I really like Infinity Gauntlet and Fear Itself, at this point they are my faves ... For me the approach to the 3 different pins...

    The Next Kickstarter - A Request Thread

    I really do not like the idea of a stretch goal. In the TZ kickstarter, I first pledged $50.00, then when it was confirmed that Star Trek TNG was a stretch goal, I raised my pledge to $100.00. On the very last day of the pledge, when it was obvious we were not going to make the stretch goal, I...

    Do you suffer under the input lag on the PS3?

    I have never suffered from lag but have always used an HD PC Display, or now, the Sony 3D Display connected with an HDMI cable.

    Black Hole Tactics and Strategies

    My 44 year old hands ain't what they used to be .... I can't be fingering around too much in tense situations like I once could when I was nothing but a wee lad ... spry, nimble, full of energy, dexterity, flexibility, and testosterone! I have not played a "thumb bustin" game like TPA in a long...

    Why the low resolution flyers?

    I really want to see and read those fliers too ... it really adds to the experience and joy.

    Black Hole Tactics and Strategies

    You know Jeff, for me, it really takes a magic moment to top my high score, and each time I top it, I need an even bigger magic moment to top it again. Its a damn battle and it takes a lot out of me ... and when I top my best score on The Black Hole, plenty of rest and fluids are needed. I...

    Just exactly what is meant to open and close the gate from the lower playfield?

    Thanks Jeff !!! Today I just popped the 3 MIL mark on this table on the Vita with the rules as you stated them in 1 above ... I dipped down in to the hole with 5x mulitplier lit, both accelerators, and all the yellow lights lit in front of the yellow drop targets ... it was a battle with the...

    Black Hole Tactics and Strategies

    Today I just popped the 3 MIL mark on this table on the Vita ... I dipped down in to the hole with 5x mulitplier lit, both accelerators, and all the yellow lights lit in front of the yellow drop targets ... it was a battle with the door opening and closing, not only in the Black Hole, but also...

    Just exactly what is meant to open and close the gate from the lower playfield?

    Let me elaborate on my confusion here. First it says that real life tables can go either way. Then it says the IOS version was altered then reverted back to what it once was. Then it says the table will be re reverted back, once the rules are all up to standard and the rules will match...

    Just exactly what is meant to open and close the gate from the lower playfield?

    After reading that, to be honest, I am not sure what exactly Jake is saying .... This is partly becasue I play on the Vita and the circumstances surrounding the gate have never changed so would someone please explain to me how exactly the gate opening and closing will work in the next update ...

    Tpa & cta - the perfect marriage for the ps vita

    OK, here is my full review I pulled from what I wrote on Amazon ... 4 1/2 out of 5 STARS Considering the great price for this item, I was not sure what to expect and having read other reviews which said the power button and the volume buttons were difficult to access, I was not expecting too...

    no dlc trophies for ps3/vita

    I still say that the lack of trophies is some sort of oversight and not a purposeful omission.

    Whats your favorite table?

    I'm with you on THE BRIDE! It is tied for me with The Black Hole ... I used to play PinBot in my dormitory lounge and loved it when I could afford to play it ... most of my quarters got sucked up by the video game Gradius which was right next to PinBot. I usually played Gradius more than...

    And you can light them up by hitting the yellow spot targets on the top playfield.

    Tpa & cta - the perfect marriage for the ps vita

    You know I posted this thread and then could not figure out how to delete it and move it to the vita section ... moving it would be great.

    What does pinball, generally speaking, mean to you?

    To me video game pinball represents what arcade video games were all about before the home consoles arrived. Home console video games have become so much easier than their forefathers were in the arcade. Today most games hold your hand and walk you through them ... hints pop up on the screen...

    Tpa & cta - the perfect marriage for the ps vita

    I picked up the CTA PS Vita Hand Grips for 13 bucks on Amazon and I am really glad I did. My orginal thought when picking up the CTA hand grips was that they would work great for 1st Person shooters such as the Two Medal of Honor games for the PSP that I play on my Vita but the fact is, they...

    Just exactly what is meant to open and close the gate from the lower playfield?

    The current scenario is actually worse than what is should be ... in reality, nothing in the lower playfield should close the gate under any circumstances .... at least if you take the rules for the real table literally, but I have never played the table in real life so I can not say for sure...

    no dlc trophies for ps3/vita

    hehe, you should get a trophy for that post! I must admit, the trophies for TPA are kind of lame and they are the same for all tables, but some people love them. But a note about high scores ... I agree with your philosophy on that ... my problem is, I do not believe the high scores are...

    Request Fully locked camera

    Hehe ... well the new cam angles on the Vita are similar to WHOF if I remember correctly. And one of them is a direct overhead close up of the plunger guage, which I am sure will help some people on some tables.
