Quoted from sulakd:I voted "yes" even though I tried Pinball Arcade and it sucks. I'm here because of Zen Pinball. Well kinda. I was playing a lot of Zen for abut six months, then I read an article somewhere about the RZ pin coming out. I wouldn't say I thought nobody made pinball anymore, I just didn't really ever think about it or know that somebody WAS making pins still. Anyway, huge zombie fan, so I got online to check it out, and that's when I found pinside. I've bought a few pins now - it's an addictive hobby.
I've got Zen and PA also on my PS3, always liked pinball, spend countless hours mashing Pinbot, Gorgar, and Black Hole back in the day, but never knew much about them. I am also a fan of virtual pinball, some of the more out there versions like the old Turbo-Grafx games Devil's Crush and Alien Crush. This site is very cool and I'm on the hunt for my first real pin.
I have a question for the guys that have played PA tables and their real counterparts. How close are the emulations? I understand nothing compares to real pinball but I'm more after the answer to if I like the table on PA will I like it in real life or is the virtual version so far away you can't even make that basic value judgment?
