[QUOTE="Epsilon, post: 231175, member: 381"] That game was the beginning of my revival of interest in video pinball. I had dabbled a LOT with Visual Pinball over the prior years but ultimately the uneven quality and lack of consistency among many of the tables kind of wore on me, and it was really exciting to have a "legit" commercial product to get my pinball fix. I started with the Wii version, which was nice despite the low resolution. Then the PS3 version come along and showed the viability of more modern tables like Medieval Madness and Tales of the Arabian Nights, which was also exciting. I remember fantasizing that they would release a la carte new tables as DLC as expansions (which actually would have been really neat with the "virtual arcade" interface, seeing new machines pop up in the environment, etc.) I had little hopes for DLC actually happening in that game, so imagine my happy surprise when they announced TPA and it became clear that they were going to do exactly what I had thought was not a likely proposition. For all of the minor issues that remain, I still scroll through the list of tables in TPA and marvel at just how far the product has come and how good we have it now as video pinball enthusiasts. I just hope they can keep it up until almost all of the tables anyone really cares about are included. [/QUOTE]
