[QUOTE="Richard B, post: 160213, member: 306"] Pinball programs require an enormous amount of calculations to get accurate physics. It's not something that can just be thrown together - TPA has been around (in one form or another) almost a decade, and the engine still isn't perfect (though it is really close). If Stern decides to do an upstart, we'll end up having great tables with crappy physics. I hope they got over their fear of "digital pinball will make them not want to buy or play the real table". I don't hear golf course managers complaining that the Tiger Woods line is making people not want to play on the real course. If anything, I play the tables on TPA or VP over ones I don't know as well. [/QUOTE]
