    Version 1.33.7

    Yeah. Not complaining; just an observation. I haven't beaten the rom's default high score yet :)

    Version 1.33.7

    Earthshaker is fun, but seems unusually easy. I got all standard goals and 4 out of 5 wizard goals in my first 3-4 plays, just by trial and error. Also, I can haz instructions? (Yeah, I saw the links upthread, but...)

    What graphics card should I use?

    How does f.lux change my desktop's gamma, I wonder? (see: justgetflux.com )

    Version 1.30.10

    Same here. The in-game links to buy season four do nothing as well, although I see Sun Vulcan has already posted the direct store links in this thread.

    Version 1.30.10

    BSD is pretty cool, although the soundtrack is a bit monotonous :) The BSD ramp physics or wireforming could use a bit of tweaking in that the ball maintains too much speed when hitting the end of the left habitrail and dropping down the left inlane. Compare to Bowen's PAPA tutorial video for...

    Version 1.29.10 Released

    Diner is good fun. I did notice these differences relative to the real-life Diner I own: Physics: The ball is overall a bit too fast and lacks mass, although my real life machine needs new rubbers, so that may account for part of the difference. Physics: The ball goes around the ramps WAY too...

    Steam PC Version 1.27.7 Discussion And Feedback

    One for the "nice to have" list: More realistic sounds for ball ricochets. Currently, a fast-moving ball that strikes a rubber or an idle flipper makes a overly wooden "pock" sound. It doesn't really sound like any physical machine I've played. Likewise, when the ball hits a gate or other light...

    Pinball Arcade too easy and unchallenging

    I played a real ToTaN last night and it kicked my ass. Even with a misaligned right flipper that made cradles easier on that side, the best I managed in a series of 5 or so games was about 4 million and maybe 3-4 jewels. The real thing is just way more random.

    Pinball Arcade too easy and unchallenging

    All of them? For instance, I've yet to complete more than two movie scenes EVER in any given game of Empire Strikes Back, because of the strict Scene Mode time limits. In contrast, I've gotten to Lost In The Zone, Join The Circus, and whatever the ToTaN Free the Genie Battle thing is called on...

    Table I'd like to see in future: 1982 Gottlieb Spirit

    I had never seen or heard anything about 1982 Gottlieb Spirit, until I saw a couple YouTube videos about it other day. That game looks like tremendous fun!

    Pinball Arcade too easy and unchallenging

    Yeah. I'm less of a Grouchy Gus about this than seansjs1973gamer, but I have noticed that I play MUCH better in TPA than on real life machines, by a long shot. It will be interesting to see how I do on TPA's Diner when it comes out, since I own a real life Diner.
