[QUOTE="Phil_194, post: 260830, member: 6773"] I can't remember what I thought of the physics on Wipe Out, not sure if that differs between versions, but the table plays really really well on my Fire 8" tablet, just didn't seem as fun when played on the television with an amazon controller on Fire Stick. The more I play the more sensitive I become to the accuracy of the physics, this will make or brake the emulated table for me now that I understand this. The DMD animations made me cringe a little at times but that's definitely not a criticism. If I had to be critical I would say that the table feels a bit repetitive but that's fairly understandable to me because it was one of the early DMD machines (I own a Hurricane and have seen that these particular tables became more varied as the years went by). I couldn't tell you if it's any good from a competitive angle, but I did see what appeared to me as like a mystery mode. Mystery awards can vary from pin to pin, and I'm not sure what the popular opinion is on what makes a pinball an excellent choice for competitive or tournament play. I wouldn't really know what to look for personally, I pay barely any attention at all to scoring but I understand it's an important part of the game, of the highest importance actually. Let's just say I don't do well with numbers. The sights and sounds are pretty good making for a decent table. If the greatest pinball in history was worth ten points, then I would give this table a seven out of ten by comparison. [/QUOTE]
