    A VERY dangerous thread!

    1. Portrait mode for forthcoming PC build. And why not for Xbox and PS3? 2. Lighting slider or day/night mode, and better lighting in all tables. 3. Hardcore mode that plays as difficult as the real table. 4. Better mechanical sounds including sound of mechanical scores resetting in EM tables...

    Request Beta of Pinball Arcade for PC?

    As a kickstarter supporter who opted for the PC version as one of the platforms and am still waiting patiently for the the January build that was promised, however I just read a recent post from Farsight buried in Facebook saying it will be delayed as they need to get the PC version running on...

    Pro Pinball

    I think they said initially Windows, Mac, iOS and then others may follow. I really hope they make this kickstarter, and a lot of the new PA fans get behind them. I used to live in the UK and remember the chaos on the roads, but to be fair I don't think that snowtyres are commonly used (or that...

    Pinball Arcade now on Steam Greenlight!

    While on the subject of the much desired portrait mode, the Pro Pinball developers have just said on their Facebook page that the initial release of the new Timeshock will have a portrait mode and a special optimised view for cabinets. Awesome news. We should all head over there to give them...

    Pro Pinball

    Same here - the lighting looked great. Another post on their Facebook just now says they will definitely support Portrait mode in the initial release, plus a special view optimised for virtual cabs. Yes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! http://m.facebook.com/pro.pinball?v=timeline&filter=2&refid=17

    Genie: Weird boxes around Lights and Playfield objects

    I am getting them too on a Nexus 7. No big deal I am sure it will be fixed.

    Pro Pinball

    Good news on their facebook page saying that they will shoot the video for the kickstarter next week. They have been slightly delayed due to snow in the England.

    Space Shuttle.

    ....and I love Space Shuttle :). Actually we don't have that many space themed tables at the moment, so bring 'em on... the more the merrier.

    So, I need some recommendations.

    The PC versions support much higher resolutions than the console versions so you might be pleasantly surprised. Also lookout for a revamped Pro Pinball over the next few months.

    Plain old portrait alone would be brilliant. And it's not just cab owners who can enjoy - almost anyone can buy a cheap rotatable monitor mount. Many thanks Mike for coming into these threads so frequently. It's great to hear from the game programmers directly.

    Pinball Arcade now on Steam Greenlight!

    For so many years video pinball was constrained by the now prehistoric bulky CRT televisions with their 4:3 ratio displays that weighed a ton. For years we had to put up with a scrolling displays or 3D views where the top half of the table was hardly visible. LCDs have changed the face of...

    Oculus Rift VR headset looks seriously cool

    Ignore me. I am still bitter about the steam thing. Actually is Epic the same people that did Epic Pinball many years ago ? Actually it would be cool if you could jump onto the table as a person the size of a ball and take a walk around the table. :)

    Got a third of the way through the video and was quite interested, until Valve showed up encouraging us to support it. It was time to switch off.

    I have obviously been in the VP world too long where Fullscreen tables refer to tables that fill the screen in portrait mode! Well done freezy for diving into the semantics :). I hope Mike's todo list isn't like mine at work where items that have been on it for a long time end up moving so far...

    That's superb news Mike - absolutely awesome. I for one would definitely wait longer if it means getting full screen for our backed tables. :cool: Thanks for the update.

    Pinball Arcade now on Steam Greenlight!

    Sad but no surprise - we are getting used to this now. Most of the games are the 'same old thing'. Pinball Arcade really stands out as being quite unique and there is nothing else there quite like it. You would think that Steam would make an effort to vary the games and choose something...

    Good news indeed. Thanks for the clarification.

    An Afternoon At FarSight Studios

    A virtual pinball in an arcade - that is surprising. Did it look like a one-off and was there an interface to select multiple tables, etc.?

    Pinball Arcade now on Steam Greenlight!

    I installed Steam and purchased a game some months ago I didn't want just so I could vote. Just before Christmas I was gonna buy a couple of games on Steam I was interested in, and I then thought **** them I won't give them a carrot. It meant making a trip to a shopping center to buy some...
