I shouldn't be able to rip through every wizard mode on my first or second try.  I'm good at pinball in the real world, but even I need to warm up a few games before I start wiping out every score on the game, particularly on games I haven't played in awhile.  Here, it's wizard modes and high scores every time.  I'm no Tarek Oberdieck (not sure I'd even enjoy pinball if I were THAT good at it since it obviously represents no challenge to him what-so-ever), but I'd still like a table slope option to speed the ball play up.  Pro Pinball was much closer to the real machines game play despite being completely made up. It also had full table slope control.  Still, it's better than no pinball given how hard it is to find these tables in the real world anymore short of a Papa tournament.</blockquote>
