[QUOTE="Alex Atkin UK, post: 131723, member: 1290"] Yeah not sure blurry is the right word, but it definitely doesn't have the polish of Pro Pinball never mind Zen Pinball/Pinball FX. That said, Pro Pinball cheated by pre-rendering the environment and presumably toggling sections of the screen and they seem to be going this route even with the remake. I'm sure there are some limitations in PA due to having to simulate things whereas other pinball games can be written from the ground up, you aren't trying to mimic an existing table. I still come out feeling disappointed with PA on PS4 though, the lighting just doesn't feel right. Is it pretty? Sure, but this is supposed to be aiming for realistic and to me it is not. But I mostly play on No Good Gofers and the table artwork on that is really poor in places. I think they rely too much on the source scan when they should be touching up that scan to produce flawless artwork. Its particularly a problem on some tables artwork where you can see the original dithering from the printers, it might match the original table better when you can see it, but it looks bad when trying to be scaled by the GPU.
