Has anyone ever considered this? That thanks to our Kickstarter efforts, despite being a lower-budget game, TPA possibly has one of the biggest all-star casts in a video game? You have Arnie. You have Patrick Stewart and the rest of the TNG gang. You have Elvira. You have Tina Fey in a...

So the PSN is down, right after I finally get table packs 23-26. Am I right to assume that high scores will not register on the leaderboards if I play offline? Might seem like a stupid question, but what I mean is when I go back online again, will the scores be uploaded?

Was at a regional meet up, and I fell in love with a few pins. Decided not to put this in the requests as they have been requested tonnes already. Just wanted to put my support behind them. The Getaway: Wow, that supercharger loop. Unfortunately I think the wow factor will be taken away from...

I know this has been posted before, but it really deserves its own topic as it has become an integral part of my strategy for pretty much every table. Basically... nudge passes are ridiculously easy to do in Zen Pinball. Pretty much every nudge gives you a warning on Zen, but warnings reset...

Anyone else getting this when they click "Mark all as read?" It happens most of the time, and when the message appears, they aren't marked as read.

So I noticed I only had one wizard goal left on WH2O and thought "How hard can it be?" Half an hour of repetition later, I have only managed to get the third part of the five way combo two or three times. And when I do, I choke because it happens so infrequently. The left flipper is NOT set up...

This has happened quite frequently to me on PS3. Had a glance to see if it has been mentioned before but couldn't spot anything. Sometimes when you plunge, the ball save triggers instantly and another ball is sent into the playfield, leaving you with a glitched two-ball multiball. Not sure how...

Disclaimer 1: this might have been mentioned before, but I don't recall. Disclaimer 2: I have no idea how feasible this would be (licensing, download size, whether the videos actually still exist in decent quality etc), I just think it would be cool, so I'm throwing it out there. Back in the...

Just saw some E3 coverage of this game. A strange hybrid between a pinball game and an RPG. Something along the lines of the character you choose affects the size and properties of the ball you play with. Seems to be a large linked pinball environment instead of a single table. As a pinball...

Anyone going along to this in August? http://www.ukpinballparty.com/ Going for the first time. My first ever pinball convention, actually. Don't know if any guys I know will be going, but thought it would be a blast whether that was the case or not. Would be cool to put some names to faces if...

I got tired of their games, so I sent the following email to help@uk.playstation.com (for lack of a more specific address, but hopefully it will be forwarded to the correct address). I'd encourage others to follow suit.

So Farsight announces a table, you think "That looks terrible", but when you play it, you become addicted. What tables? For me, Flight 2000. I couldn't see the appeal but I love it. And, to be honest, most of the season 2 Gottliebs. There was so much hate for Tee'd Off, but I actually really...

Does anyone else love the fact that System 11 games have the same sound card as the Sega Mega Drive/Genesis? The Mega Drive was a huge part of my childhood (I know, I'm quite young for this forum), and hearing all the same... midi instruments on games like Pinbot is really nostalgic for me. I...

So all the Star Wars tables are out. Thought we'd be different and run a poll on the Zen forum. What is your favourite? For me, I'm apprehensive to vote too early as I haven't experienced the new tables fully, but I doubt that any of them will beat Starfighter Assault. I hated that table at...

In Glasgow there is a massive, multi-storey HMV, and over the last two years they have been housing various pinball machines. It started with just one, but at its peak there was around 15! Right now there are seven. The operator has a preference towards Sterns, so no WMS, but keeps all the...

So Farsight have said that a Stern will pop up this season. Pretty chuffed because I guessed a Stern would make an appearance! We've discussed this in bits and pieces in other topics, but I thought it would be good to give it its own subject. What do you think this Stern would be? Anything on...

Why do pinball games have a tendency to end right before an extremely crucial moment? Choking aside, it still happens an insane amount for me. Yesterday I was playing Lord of the Rings. The operator had fixed the ball lock on the sword (before they just jumped off the blade instead of...

I apologise if this has been covered before, I had a look through the topics but couldn't find any. I know this is going back a while, but I recently went back to this table as I haven't really given it any love since TPA launched, and I was a lot worse at pinball. The only thing stopping me...

Not just a virtual pinball anomaly!

Just letting you all know there is a friendly pinball tournament in Glasgow on the 12th of April at HMV Buchanan Street. I know at least one other Glasgow-based person here. Entry is £5, and all the machines will be set to free play, so you can just hang out and play unlimited pinball for a few...
