Its an engineering marvel compared to a traditional pinball machine. The ball tracking is crazy accurate. The build quality is out of this world. The ease of changing the upper playfield has never been seen on this level. I was never interested in P3 for a long time because it wasn't a traditional machine. I got mine on a big trade deal and now I don't think I'd let it go. Solid company with fantastic plans and updates always coming out.
As a company they have shipped all pre-orders as of now and are building stock for distros so you can walk in and pick one up. Pretty impressive stuff overall while it seems like everyone loves to watch it all burn. They simply didn't build a new game, they built an entirely new platform with insane potential.
Quoted from Geddy2112:With the p3 isn't the upper Playfield always the same and just the lower Playfield has different stuff going on with each game correct me if I'm wrong...
This is incorrect. Lower PF is a monitor with ball tracking that does have different stuff going on, but the top layout is super easily changed for new games coming out. The lower ramps can also be changed out for ball delivery to flippers as well as flippers and other lower mechs are all modular should a game creator want to modify those. They have a game called rocs that only uses the botom of the playfield and with the ball tracking so good it utilizes that to destroy rocs floating around the monitor as it knows where the ball is at all times. It's neat stuff.
