[QUOTE="mmmagnetic, post: 24083, member: 558"] Yeah, just bought it yesterday night, instead of going to bed like I planned ;) I wasn´t expecting much for some reason - usually DSiware isn´t exactly a pool of quality - but man, this game is a very overlooked gem. Physics are incredible for a DS game, and the prerendered look works surprisingly well. I kinda liked Metroid pinball, but I found it too videogamey, but Ancients Beckon flows like a Ritchie and flips horizontally like a Lawlor. Mechanical sounds are also fantastic. I still think the music on Pinball Pulse is a bit generic, just like Zen Pinball, it lacks the punch a good Williams table has, but the little jokes from Zeus and that other goddess are quite amusing, "Gotta go, things to do!" being my favourite. Sometimes I just turn the music volume down completely, at which point it almost sounds like a EM table, with the rather monotone, one-note harp sounds. And yeah, table design is already fantastic with these guys, the Pro Pinball tables look very tasteful, they really know what makes a good table work (something that, by the way, the guys at Zen Pinball seem to completely miss, aside from some kinda okay tables like Excalibur). Hitting loop combos and the multiball modes are way more fun than I ever expected from a DSi game, and the physics blow PHOF out of the water. I hope whoever at their team designs these tables doesn´t let Lawlor completely run the playfield design, because I think that Silverball and Lawlor working in tandem could be highly interesting.
