Been a while so I thought I better kick this thread in the guts again. Just to piss off the purists who hate this  %.%    STOP THE HATE    *.*

Well Pinball Arcade finally did a table that I actually own, love and can give an honest opinion on how well they did to reproduce.
Dr Dude a classic from the early 90's was emulated and it is done very well, right down to the comical back glass, cabinet and toys. As they use the same sound and game ROMS it makes it a no brainer that this is not only authentic but enjoyable to listen to the GIFT of GAB song. It plays a little faster than the real deal, but I don't care. They truly capture the feel of pinball as good as a video game version and at the cost it is crazy not to have a crack. They even include details like the history of the table and reproduction numbers, original flyers, PRO tips and Tournaments to name just a few extra's

Anyway, as I own a PS3 for playing this game it means I can run it through the home theatre an crank the sound right up and play it on a 50" plasma so you can pick up the smallest detail in the games and appreciate the effort these guys ( FARSIGHT STUDIOS ) go to .

Recently for my platform they have release the classic FIREPOWER, Cactus Canyon and for the old school lovers of EM's CENTRAL PARK, very cool indeed.  $#$

IT IS ALL PINBALL AND IT IS ALL GOOD.  ^^^
If it isn't broke, it isn't pinball.
