    Is this game dead?

    When I saw how much better the Williams tables looked and played on Zen, I was glad TPA is dead.

    Patch 1.24 NA and 1.25 EU

    Yes! That's what I want too. Of the top 10 player rated EM games on ipdb.org, only one (Fireball) is in TPA. Two others are also Bally, but that leaves 7 top-10 Gottlieb EM's, and I've already suggested they should start churning them out. It would strike a good balance with the modern Sterns...

    Official Announcement.

    The PSN account is not tied to a specific console. The same as you had for PS3, you use for PS4, and will surely use for PS5 also. If you'll be able to play PS4 games on the PS5 is another matter... It is possible to dowload games as pak-files from the Playstation website to a PC. I used to do...

    Official Announcement.

    How many seasons were released on discs? I have all tables of all seasons, purchased through PSN store for PS4. So I should be able to redownload them if I change hard drive or console or whatever, at least as long as I have access to my PSN account and there actually IS a PSN. But what if...

    When Do We Get The New UI?

    Meh, I hope not. I prefer the old UI. A section for favorite tables would be nice, but the time it takes to scroll through a specific table is negligible even at the current amount.

    Favorite pins without pops

    It ain't really pinball without pop bumpers... That said, it is possible to design a good table without them, and the best table of that bunch is Elektra, which is sorely missing from TPA! I would much rather have had that at this point than the horrible Judge Dredd, for example.

    Request Make it easier to get new tokens

    I didn't say it was impossible, just that I've written off attempting it. The token goal isn't hard in and of itself, it's just that it takes a ridiculous amount of time.

    The Pinball Arcade table ratings

    Voted. I'll just post my most liked... 10 — Big Shot 10 — Centaur 10 — Eight Ball Deluxe 10 — El Dorado 10 — Fathom 10 — Genie 10 — Medieval Madness 10 — Paragon 10 — The Twilight Zone 10 — Wild Card ...and my most hated. 1 — Bone Busters Inc. 1 — Ghostbusters 1 — Last Action Hero 1 — Rescue...

    Request Make it easier to get new tokens

    Then I wouldn't even dream of attempting it. Just write that one off - as you probably have done with Genie's 3M high score anyway (I know I have...)

    Request We Need More Trophies

    I seem to recall having read that the absence of trophies for the later seasons has to do with Sony only allowing a certain amount of trophies per game, and that TPA has more or less run into the limit - but I'm sure someone will come along and answer with certainty.

    Table goal "relight kicker" doesn't pop on PS4

    I've done this several times now: Get the ball down the left outlane while the kicker is lit, and then on the same ball complete the TOUR targets, but I don't get the goal. Am I doing something wrong, or is this a bug?

    Patch 1.23 NA and 1.24 EU

    Sounds good to me! Things have really picked up for the PS4 since you came around. :)

    Patch 1.23 NA and 1.24 EU

    I can imagine... That's a lot more than it took me... But it has to mean that last token is just around the corner... In any case, you've come too far to give up now! ;)

    Request Make it easier to get new tokens

    You don't have to do it in one sitting obviously. I don't know what system you play on, but on the PS4 you can put the console in rest mode over night and even put TPA in a suspended state to run other games or apps. As long as you don't exit the table or TPA or power off the console, you keep...

    Obligatory strategy thread. :)

    No problem, glad if it helps! If you don't back out of the table, quit in the middle of a run, or turn off the console, collecting 80-100 tokens should be enough to get the goal... But be prepared for it to take a week to finish if you also have a life outside of playing TPA... ;) It took me 12...

    Alright, thanks!

    Patch 1.23 NA and 1.24 EU

    Tom Devaney You never confirmed whether the SORCERER wizard goals were fixed in this update. Now that I finally got all 26 tokens in Safe Cracker I might have a go at that one. Should be a breeze in comparison... Also, can you ballpark when PS4 will get the Banzai Run update?

    Obligatory strategy thread. :)

    This hasn't been mentioned, but I suppose it's fairly obvious... If you're collecting all 26 tokens for the wizard goal, when starting a new game, just keep lighting and completing the three rollover lanes and draining the ball over and over for a new shot at them until the cellar award has...

    Safecracker Tokens?

    I finally did it! After many hours put in... The 30th token won after my 25th, without exiting the table, was the 26th and last I needed. Should be about a 1 in 25 chance to receive one you don't have, so yeah... I was about to give up. So, with that, I just want to say, goodbye Safe...

    Request Make it easier to get new tokens

    Oh really? Ok then... That is mildly encouraging, I suppose... But the 20 or so tokens I've won since the last reset (for the update) still haven't bumped me from 25/26 to 26/26... When you collected 1000 (!), did you back out of the table or power off the console a lot?
