So I have this for the 360, and was wondering if anyone else here had it for that, PS3, mobile, etc. Any tables you wanna claim to be the best at?
Personally, my best table is Bride of Pinbot. Getting the billion point shot twice will do that.

Needs more Black Knight, Xenon, and Hercules (look em up) Black Knight is in there. And would you believe that I am not a big fan of either Black Knight or Xenon? Well, Xenon is okay but it gets old fast and it's kinda awkward to play in public, what with the orgasmic moans and the machine loudly telling you to "ENTER XENON!!". Black Knight, on the other hand, I really don't like. An average table coupled with annoying sounds effect which gets on my nerves fast. As for the game itself, it looks pretty good. Very, VERY nice collection of tables, including fairly obscure ones.

Also, I have noticed a recent surge of pinball games and software lately. Visual Pinball has been around for a while but now there's also Future Pinball, and games wise, there's Pinball Hall of Fame (one for Williams and one for Gottlieb), Zen Pinball, Marvel Pinball and now this one. As a big pinball fan, this pleases me and I hope it boosts interest in the real things. Also also, I was starting to feel sad that it is not released on any system I own, but then I realized they announced it for the PC. YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! Also also also, you can support the Steam release by giving them a "yes" here: steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=95907686And one last thing, I noticed the DMD display shows up on the corner of the screen; is there a way to move it or hide it entirely? Because you see, I prefer to have it at the top of the table or even better, on the backglass for maximum realism.

Needs the following pins: - High Speed (and its sequel, The Getaway: HS2)
- Black Knight 2000
- Flash
- Banzai Run (Pat Lawlor's first game)
- Earthshaker
- Fish Tales
- White Water
The more popular licensed tables (T2, Addams, Indiana Jones) are definitely a no-go, while with The Getaway, Party Zone, and Road Show, they'll have to secure the licenses for the music.

Since they already have one Elvira table, they definitely need to make Scared Stiff!, I can't get enough of that one.
I may also faint with glee if they manage to give us Big Bang Bar.

Scared Stiff is already a table in the game (table pack 7)
As far as the HUD goes, you can't move it, but you can make it disappear. Also, I think the only table so far where you can see the score on the backglass is Cirqus Voltaire, though Farsight said that they may include it for all tables in the future.

Seeing the HUD without having to look away from the table kinda feels like cheating, ya know? That's one thing I love about Future Pinball: there's a specific button to look at the backglass if you don't want to show the HUD. Attention to detail.

My best are Medieval Madness and Monster Bash.
Wish they would get their publisher all signed up for the 360. It's delayed future releases.

Oh, I also forgot (but they probably can't get) .... Monday Night Football and Street Fighter. I'm also interested if they get Black Knight 2000. Gorgar?? holy crap, I didn't realize people even remembered that machine. Only reason I knew of it was from a record...

I checked their thread and I couldn't find a release date for the PC version. Did they announce anything?

Bumping this to announce that The Pinball Arcade has finally gotten the green light on Steam, and will be released in the near future.
Also, since the last post, 3 table packs have been announced and/or launched: Dr. Dude/Firepower, Cactus Canyon/Central Park, and Space Shuttle/White Water.

Also, yay for these new tables! Though I never played Central park or White Water, so it'll be an opportunity to try them out.

I have a couple on the 360 & I'm up to date on the Iphone.
"Bride of Pinbot" is my favourite - "I can Speak" always brings a smile to my face.
But some table are REALLY hard to play on the phone, Like "Medieval Madness" as it's a very busy table it's hrd to keep track on such a small screen, But I'm gonna grab an Ipad in the summer.

Ie played it on my brothers PS3 and it is so much better than the Williams Pinball Arcade. Just seems more realistic and quite a few more tables when it is said and done.
When PC version comes out Im getting it day 1. Dont have any other system to play it on.
I want Cyclone, Terminator 2, Jurassic Park, and Rollercoaster Tycoon tables, though not sure I will get any except maybe Cyclone.

Since its been brought up a few times, I should let you guys know that Terminator 2 is scheduled to be the next Kickstarter project (they do this to cover massive license fees, like with Twilight Zone and Star Trek TNG). Also I've heard that after T2, the one after that will be The Simpsons. Whether it's the original from 1990 or Pinball Party from 2003, I'm not sure.
