    TPA Tables You've Played For Real

    Yep! Although some of the other ones were in other random locations. Fish Tales is in an Irish pub called Buck Mulligans which also has Nascar and Popeyes. I honestly can't remember where I played Cue Ball Wizard though. I only have this week and finals next week left at UAB, so I don't know if...

    TPA Tables You've Played For Real

    I've played all of these in Birmingham, AL. Of course, I have played many other tables elsewhere, but none of them are featured in TPA. Williams: Gorgar - Plays pretty much the same except the ball isn't quite as "loose" as in TPA, but that goes for real pinball in general. Black Knight -...

    Twister's official name

    I say the more Bill Paxton, the better. It's too bad there's no Aliens table with "It's game over, man! Game over!"

    Ever wondered why they never made *this* pinball???

    As unusual and stupid as it may sound, Mallrats would make an excellent table (only if it's uncensored of course.) Besides, there's a profound lack of tables featuring Jay and Silent Bob.

    Battle of the Tables - Preliminary Round

    Love these threads. They're one of the very few "which is better" types of threads that rarely, if ever, cause heated arguments. I participated in a Beatles album thread similar to this one not too long ago. Anyway... Space Shuttle v Central Park - While I do love EMs and I hope there will be...

    Season 2 Gottlieb Tee'd Off table - First GOPHER Wheel spin always land on letter 'H'

    It makes perfect sense if you think about it. The machines in TPA are recreated as if they are brand new with consistent physics. I'm sure if the machines could wear out over time like they do in real life then it would land on different letters.

    Loving tournament mode.

    I saw it. Fortunately, it was removed from the final leaderboards. The username was "Cheaters Gotta Cheat", and his/her score on BH was 99,999,990. When I saw that I didn't even care about the tournament anymore.

    Checked out Wizard Of Oz by Jersey Jack today *pics*

    It's really not that huge in America either. The biggest thing about WOZ is the "Dark Side of the Rainbow." That would be a cool wizard mode for this table assuming JJ could get licensing from Pink Floyd.

    Latest NEWS And INFORMATION On FarSight Studios' The Pinball Arcade

    After reading the facebook post, it sure is nice to see Microsoft showing faith in their developers *sarcasm*. Another reason I hate M$.

    Jersey Jack - Wizard Of Oz News

    All of that secrecy, ego, and humongous waists of money, and for what? JAR JAR?! Anyway, WOZ looks pretty interesting if I must say. At least they're making improvements/setting standards that Stern should've done a decade ago.

    Full Screen - Screen View

    A pinball cabinet? Anyway, I agree that fullscreen should be supported. I'm just curious how the HUD would be implemented.

    How many virtual quarters did you spend today?

    Well, technically none because all of the machines are set to "Free Play". :P I played for about and hour and a half on PS3. 2 really long games on ToTAN trying to activate Harem Multiball (and failed, though I did beat the wizard mode a couple of times.) 3 games of ToM, 1 game of RBoN, and 1...

    360 - Bug Funhouse. 464m. Ball one. No balls inplay or by plunger. Call attendant not working.

    I agree. They should at least fix the call attendant to reset the ball once that happens.

    360 - Bug Funhouse. 464m. Ball one. No balls inplay or by plunger. Call attendant not working.

    Yeah, that's been kind of a known issue with FH. I'm sort of scared to play it on TPA for that reason, at least until it gets fixed.

    VP harder than the real thing?

    Some tables are easier on VP and others are harder, so there's no one sure answer for me at least. Another thing to consider is that no two real-life pinball machines are exactly the same. Even on factory settings, some ramps may get rejected more often than other machines of the same kind for...

    DLC Schedule For The Next Six Months

    For their cheap-licensed (at least probably) tables, I personally would've preferred Monopoly or Rollercoaster Tycoon. Other choices would be LoTR or Elvis, though I'm not sure about the licensing for those (especially Elvis.) As long as it's not Austin Powers (huge fan of the movie, not the...

    Jersey Jack - Wizard Of Oz News

    It's a shame they couldn't choose a better movie than Episode 1. Revenge From Mars is cool though (I still prefer AFM) If WOZ becomes a success, then Stern has some real competition to deal with. (Finally)

    Request We need 2-stage or analog flipper control on games with upper flippers

    He was referring to Whirlwind, which does have two-stage flippers, not White Water, which does not. Unless you were referring to Whirlwind too... I've never played FH or Tommy in real life, so I can't really say anything about those machines, but it's even demonstrated on the PAPA Whirlwind...

    You are expanding too fast, and significantly damaging the quality of your product.

    You guys are SERIOUSLY overreacting. It's not like FarSight only focuses on DLC and completely ignores bugs (which they do and are fixing, by the way.) Have you ever heard of a game called Rock Band 3? It has the same obvious bugs and rushed feeling even today. Harmonix releases at least three...

    Stern SAM2 System

    The sound replacements and rule changes are exactly what turn me away from some of the "ULTRA" tables for Future Pinball. ON TOPIC: If FarSight does begin recreating newer Stern machines, then I have my fingers crossed for AC/DC and Iron Man (I don't know about the licensing costs though.)
