[QUOTE="mmmagnetic, post: 22000, member: 558"] I´m pretty sure that the TPA version will be quite a bit softer on our controllers, tablets and smartphones... I´ve had the chance to play Revenge From Mars, Guns n Roses and Addams Family recently, and there have been many times when I´ve thought "on TPA that would have worked". Real ball speed is still a lot faster, and the reliability and predictability of the virtual machine takes away a lot of the inherent randomness (and sadly, a bit of the excitement) of a real machine. It killed me how many times a ball just wouldn´t go up a ramp on Guns n Roses, but that machine was in a pretty bad shape to begin with. On the other hand, the feeling of hitting the electric chair scoop to start the booming multiball on TAF will very likely not be matched by the virtual counterpart ;) Anyway, congrats on the great score :) I think it will be very interesting to see real-life players playing the TPA version and seeing the differences!
