[QUOTE="StarDust4Ever, post: 139587, member: 3033"] I'm goingto counter your argument for a moment. There is a Black Knight 2000 table at my local laundermat. The flippers are so weak they can't even propel the ball high enough to hit the drop targets on the lower playfield, much less up the ramp. Basically I volleyed the pnball back and forth between the flippers very slowly until it drained. I think the high current coils are burned out in the flippers IMO. Needless to say, I was disappinted. BK2K on pinball arcade changed that for me. While I am sure every table has subtle differences between a pristine real life fully restored and 100% operational table, TPA is doing a great service to pinball fans everywhere. Yes I have played a few real tables that work well enough to enjoy, and there's nothing like the tactile feedback you get from all the solenoids and other mechanical bits, in additon to lighting and sound. It's like i can feel, hear, and see them working through the table. You miss a lot of that in TPA, but I'm okay with it. The current simulation in TPA is far better than going to a bar or laundermat and attempting to play a broken or barely working pinball machine that the operators can't be arsed to fix. Sad yes, but that's the impression many people get when pinball hunting in real life. It's a shame really. [/QUOTE]
