I really wish they had a central account for Pinball Arcade so that we could play on any platform and compare in one place...it would be a better motivator for me.
I know the mobile scores are all separate. iOS/Android scores are.

Anybody pick up the Ghostbusters Pinball from the Pinball Arcade yet? It was free yesterday, unsure if it is today as well. They re-themed the GTB Haunted House pin to a Ghostbusters package. I played it on the iPad mini - not bad, though that platform is not one I often use.

As far as I know, it's iOS and Android only -- free to play, but has a built-in limit in the form of tokens per day, and if you have TPA installed you get extra tokens each day. It actually raised some concerns on the TPAFans forum if this was FarSight's new revenue model that would carry over into TPA eventually; a FS employee confirmed this wouldn't be the case.

Also, Addams Family has been fully funded. Except for the Christopher Lloyd likeness -- they are going to be removing his graphics from the final product, he did not provide any voice samples so all sound and voices should be intact.

Agree with this - although I thought Vita/PS3 scores were shared.

Improved my Twilight Zone score to 942,820,090 thanks to finally getting a Powerball. With that I was able to get the double jackpot, a jackpot during Powerball Mania (completing 2 wizard goals in the process) and was able to return it to the gumball machine for the Powerball Payoff.

Plus, all the scores you get in the extra modes added to your bonus helps too.

Party Zone was released today to most platforms. About time since the real one I have access to is hopelessly broken and dirty, not taken care of at all.

Next month is Earthshaker. LOVE that table.

I ended up getting the $1 tier purely for the Star Wars tables as I own the rest.

If you play Pinball FX2, add me on steam, same username.
