I dont like it at all. Its not for me. Nothing compares to the real thing. It doesnt matter what they do to virtual pinball, its just a computer game versus the real thing.
AND the problem is, if the new generation likes it too much, it might kill Stern or JJP for arguments sake. Adding a new pinball will be just a upload away, 60 in 1 etc.
It has its place in the world, but not in a real pinball collectors house. As Wotto said, its good to audition a new game MAYBE, but thats about it, unless u dislike real pinball machines (space n size etc) so maybe its good for kids who like virtual stuff only. Each to their own. I will say the people who create virtual stuff etc are talented, u have to give them that.
