[QUOTE="Ben Logan, post: 252136, member: 5468"] LOL. My mistake, Stemage. Thanks for correcting me so graciously. It was indeed a great interview. All three of you guys came across as genuine video pinball enthusiasts. Quite an enjoyable listen. And I totally agree that pinball fx's physics are worthy of constructive criticism. I'm comfortable with their physics since they're clearly "fantasy" tables (fireballs blasting off, superheroes flying from ramp to ramp, etc.). TPA and SPA on the other hand market themselves as a realistic pinball sim. I'm looking at the back of my latest copy of Pinball Magazine. FS has a full page ad that reads, "REAL pinball for iPhone, iPad, Android, Steam." The ball physics are (forgive me for being so harsh) ridiculously predictable given their own description of their platform. No backspin, railroads, etc. I was really excited by the ACDC Kickstarter video when they said they finally planned to address ball physics (but then quickly backpedaled). I only gripe about it often because I believe FS could have a really wonderful platform. Everything else, including flipper physics (minus the fake live catches) is getting great! [/QUOTE]
