[QUOTE="mewzard, post: 203233, member: 5337"] Hey there, figured I might introduce myself before getting to the posting. My name's Colton, but I go by Mewzard on the internet. I've been a gamer for pretty much all my life (had a NES back when I was 1-2 at the tail-end of the 80s, played PC games, Console games, Board games, Arcade games, etc). I did, naturally, occasionally dip into the world of pinball. While my real life experiences with them are quite limited sadly (I do remember a pinball table that gave you baseball cards being at a restaurant a few blocks away as my most commonly played), I got more time with virtual tables, like the 3D Space Cadet that came with so many computers for a number of years, one called Enigma that I remember getting at a Blockbuster Video, and even some Sonic Spinball (it may or may not count, but hey, it was memorable). Not the most impressive resume, but availability was always my issue. Just couldn't hit the arcades enough (and damn those tempting 90s Arcade Cabinets for eating so much of my time) and few restaurants we went to, but I always wanted to play more. Well, I got my first modern urge when I noticed Zen Pinball on the WiiU. Got that and a few tables, and enjoyed that experience, but I wanted more, since it was fun. Discovering the Pinball Arcade was "coming to the WiiU" quickly became "downloading on Steam". After trying out a few tables, and finally having a job, I unconsciously decided to be fiscally irresponsible, and within two days had all four Seasons of tables on my Steam account (pro versions if you must know, didn't know if I'd want the features later or not). After a while of playing with Keyboard and mouse, I finally got a controller to use, and am now enjoying the experience of a metric ton of pinball and regretting not sinking more quarters into some of these tables back in the day. Well, that and having a dated computer if the lag in the DX11 beta is any sign for me. Anyways, nice to meet you guys! Hope we can have some fun conversations about Ye Olde Virtuale Pinballe.
