The new Zaccria update goes a long way but the physics is still a little behind TPA. Yes, the zaccaria app has better light effects and graphics but the physics is still the most important thing to me when I play.

The tables also look a bit wrong in all the available views on the Zaccaria app. Everything feels a bit cramped. Not sure what it is, but a good example is when you trap the ball on a flipper it feels to close to the slings and the top of the playfield feels to close to the bottom of the playfield in all the views = cramped.

Still, with the new updates it has become much more fun to play the Zaccaria app and unlike TPA they still update the app with new features regularly.

I play and enjoy them both but for the PC, Visual Pinball is still the obvious choice for me.

Looks like it is hard to get everything right, Pro Pinball is very close, though (If you have the time to wait a couple of years for every table, that is )

The new physics on Xenon is a huge step up and DX11 lights on pc looks fantastic.
The future looks bright for TPA, I would say. They are still working on a cab release. Can't wait for that to happen

For now, only Xenon. They plan on redoing the physics for all the old tables as well but it is probably a lot of work, so it is smart to test it out on one table first.

Something fishy about that list. Why add Eldorado EM when there is already one Eldorado in the game. AG Football also sounds suspect to me. I also find it strange that they would add both Rescue 911 and TX-sector in the same season since the Gottlieb tables do not sell nearly as much as the other ones and they got a lot negativity after the Gottlieb streak in season two (that streak btw only happened because the wms/bally tables was put on hold, waiting on a new contract with wms)

We have seen many leaks like this before so I am thinking that some of these could be placeholder tables if Farsight does not want the
true tables to become public knowledge. I might be wrong, though since we are getting no fear next month.

All I am saying is do not take all of that list for granted

Quoted from GorillaBiscuits:

Are season passes no longer a thing for iOS? Or do we need to wait for season 5 finish? Kind of a bummer.

After season only, I'm afraid. Apple made them change it.
