Can you post a screen shot of Ripley's leaderboard (of just us)? That one was insanely close also.

Well played, sir.
Jesus. I guess I have some work to do.

Did you figure out any particular way of getting the score so high?

My cell is about to die here, so no pic opportunity. Here are the scores as read from my Vita:

Eronnicus: 43,653,880
dsheinem: 42,945,110
brad21126: 42,766,240

So yeah, super close.

Saw on twitter today that the new tables are "stuck" in certification and at least the XBLA version is delayed until June.

Hoping the PS3 is good to go.

Anybody else play the Marvel tables on Pinball FX2 for the 360? My username there is red21126 (psn is brad21126).

I originall just had Pinball FX so I got the free upgrade to support the Marvel DLC without paying for the FX2 default tables (which I have now with Zen Pinball for the PS3).

I don't know what it is but Pinball FX2 >>>> Zen Pinball for me. I don't know if its the system or what with FX2 but I love Pinball Arcade on the PS3 but dislike Zen Pinball on the same system.

Anyway, hit me up with your XBL user name if you're on their leaderboards. Thanks.

I played a pretty decent "video" pinball the other day on a multi-arcade machine -- Pinball Action by Tecmo (1985). That can get pretty fun.

I thought it was rather meh, but FYI it is included on the Tecmo Classic Arcade for original XBOX.

I picked myself up Pokémon Pinball: Ruby and Sapphire the other day. The ball speed is a bit low, and the game is easier than the original on GBC, but it's still really fun.

That's cool! Arcade video pinball games are few and far between, and I like the effort it makes in featuring multiple tables with different rules by switching the screens.

So I think I now have retrosportsgamer beat on all 4 tables of Pinball Arcade and s1mple beaten on two of them (Ripley's and Black Hole). Both of you need to step up you Black Hole game considerably :)

I assume you've seen the kickstarter for Twilight Zone?
