[QUOTE="Sumez, post: 118503, member: 1547"] Wow.... Now i see what you guys mean! Apart from some annoying "digital" issues with flipper accuracy (I'm gonna make another post about that one of the next days, it happens on multiple tables, at least on PS3), I have enjoyed this table a lot, now that I finally decided to buy it on PS3. It's such a great table, with a ton of depth to it, considering its age. It's great fun to play in real life, but now that I'm able to play with at least one pretty much guaranteed wizard mode, it opens up a whole new level of strategy. In fact, considering this is probably one of the easiest wizard modes to get on TPA, especially with the ridicolous amount of extra balls (I only ever played the table without extra balls IRL), I can sort of see why you'd call it overrated. Reaching wizard mode with 4 or more relics on the real table is one of my big goals in pinball, and it seems to far out of reach on the real table, but on TPA it happens constantly, so with that done, there's not really much more to go for. That said, I did have a really great game today, one of those really great experiences where a game has a bunch of ups and downs, and through some great split second descisions, perfect combos, and thorough strategy considering what modes to play out, etc. making that shot to the center target for a Final Frontier with three full relic sets just felt fantastic, as I sat in my couch hooting at the TV. I feel that I can do much better, too, but that was a nice milestone to reach only two days after purchasing the table, the game ending in just over 15 billion. So anyway, with that out of the way, i tried the thing about playing for Borg multiball, and only Borg multiball. And in my very first try, without even trying especially hard, I wound up at 50 billion points... ridiculous!! Considering what an excellent game I had just before it, with so many "experiences" throughout, working towards a specific goal, getting a way higher score without even trying, really just going for a single shot over and over again, felt like cheating. I hear you guys, Borg multiball REALLY ruins the table on TPA... [/QUOTE]
