[QUOTE="starck, post: 9540, member: 601"] One thing does make me wonder though- okay- sure many of these tables are old (well, relatively). However, RBION was released in 2004 and is by far the newest table in the pinball arcade. How come the audio quality on that table isn't any better than TOTAN, etc? I decided to do some basic investigating: -On the iPhone the app, with all current tables downloaded (7 total now) is 126mb. A LOT of that is going to be for the retina display graphic images. Furthermore, according to the ROM list for RBION, there are 5 audio ROMs: -1 'Sound' ROM, 512kb -4 'voice' ROMs, 8mb each. Total, there should be ~32.5mbs of audio files for JUST RBION. Given the size of the app with SEVEN tables installed, I personally think there's some sound file conversion/compression going on here which might be killing the SQ- especially for a table made in 2004.....
