[QUOTE="TangoBunny, post: 32261, member: 1343"] I just registered to say I'm getting the flipper lag too, and it's not my television. I play both Zen Pinball and Pinball Arcade on PS3, and Zen Pinball's flippers feel really snappy. The instant that I press the button, the flippers flip. In Pinball Arcade, there are times when I hit the flipper button as the ball is nearing the tip of the flipper, only to watch the ball casually roll down the drain while my flipper flips immediately afterwards. This all happens in like... a fraction of a second, but a fraction of a second of lag is enough to lose balls frequently, unless you actively flip slightly early to compensate for the lag. I should also note that I play a ton of other games on the same TV (including Rhythm Heaven on Wii, which is a game based around exact timing, and lots of other PS3 games that have precise timing, Zen Pinball being the most obvious one), and there is no lag. It's only The Pinball Arcade that does this. If it helps, I'm playing the latest version released in Europe... which I hear is about five pinball packs behind, as only the first table pack is released here. >.> [/QUOTE]
