Video Pinball

[c0wb0y]

It's my yearly Texas Pinball Festival post...
I'll be in Frisco, TX this weekend attending the show. If I see any video pins, hyper pins, etc, I'll grab some photos for this thread.
In the event anybody else attends the show from Racketboy, shoot me a message. After all, "it's more fun to complete!"

I recently picked up a few harder to grab pinball games via eBay. First one arrived today

So cool to get pinball games from Europe. I got this in January -

Cyclone's out on TPA. Got 7.5 million on it. Those wizard goals, however....

Very cool imports! I've considered grabbing those. Any first impressions?

Pinball Challenge Deluxe packages Pinball Dreams & Pinball Fantasies into one game. They are very accurate to the computer versions.

How is Sonic Spinball? I was thinking about playing it to go with this month's together retro.

I liked it. It's like a pinball platformer, but it's still good, although some shots can be tricky.

It's on Sonic Mega Collection along with Sonic & Knuckles, so go for it!

Sonic Spinball is great. One of my favorite Sonic games, easily.

Another less common pinball game arrived:

OK, so this is a cropped, windowed shot in *shudders* 16:9, but just look at the lighting. The DX11 Beta just went live. Each table has a brightness slider for ambient light, which really gives you that hypnotic glow we all love. In this shot ^ I've got it cranked all the way down. Looks great, imo. So yeah, no stable portrait mode...among other quirks (it is beta) but this is the start of something great.
