I'm 50 if you credit me my final trimester in utero, and I feel like my new cohort is in greater need of representation. Now bring on some of those mid-seventies Bally classics!
How often do you see a soccer player one-timing a ball if he can trap it instead? Bowen Kerins compared it to the difference between hitting a pitched baseball versus one that is sitting up on a tee. Now I'm not sure even Barry Bonds could hit a tee-ball out of the park, but in pinball you can...
Much easier! Even if toggling that always worked perfectly on that other menu, it still requires calling down that menu, fiddling around some, and then dismissing the menu. If only each table would remain the way it was set the last time it was played, it wouldn't matter that the menus are such...
Sorry if this has been addressed somewhere else, but I looked and don't see it.
On both of my android devices, a Droid Razr Maxx and a first gen Nexus 7, I have a heck of a time toggling between the scrolling and locked camera views. Tapping the screen there just cycles the menu item one lower...
Who said anything about 1000 units? When you want a printout of some PDF file you've found on the internet, would you print it out a thousand times? I'm talking about home users printing out "Ringmasters" that are based on a personal photograph, or re-imagined ramps that change gameplay. At...
The next revolution in pinball is going to be driven by 3D printing. At first it will be things like replacement playfield toys and ramps for existing games, but eventually you'll see people producing entirely new games.
Yep. It was two quick days of amazing pinball at the PHoF and their annex at the Riviera, then LAS to IAH (Houston) on a 757 and IAH to TPA on a 737. The only problem was I didn't get enough pinball.
Two things make it worse in my particular case - I've been all over Austria, but the closest I've been to Australia is Singapore; and the fact that I was just chatting with Mayuh about the pinball expo in Germany. I remember watching that tourney clip of Taxi and thinking how strange it was...
Great video, but does anyone believe the FarSight version is going to play like that? My money says the TPA version of Centaur will play quite a bit faster (fine by me!) and the other difference I'd wager on will be flipper dynamics. Will TPA try to emulate the odd, floppy nature of the Bally...
I yam armed and ready to save the planek!
I love this pin, but by way of full disclosure, I once named a cat "Olive Oyl" after seeing Shelley Duvall hit that role into the upper decks.
I'm sorry, but that is weak. When the poll is closed, the winner should be announced. Nobody should sit on the results of an open election.
Or maybe we should have another poll: Should FarSight tell us who WINS these polls?
or
Let's start a poll to see which table people THINK won the LAST...
