This has been stated before, but I think there are two major problems to making "hard" modes for the games (or making them exactly like the real game).Flipper Control: You just can't preform a lot of the same flipper moves that you can on a real machine, for example, dead catching (hitting the ball as it comes down at just the right time to stop it on the flipper)Nudging: I haven't played other platforms, but on the iphone version, when you touch the screen to nudge, you nudge the same amount every time. There's no way to vary how much force you can nudge the machine like on a real pinball. Maybe they could make the shake nudging better, but currently it's not that great either.I don't know if there's a way to ever make those exactly like a real machine--probably not. But virtual pinball is still great. I wish finding a real machine was easier where I live!
