    If you have any love for pinball, you should definitely pick up The Pinball Arcade. Its presentation and re-creation of actual pinball tables is second to none, and deserves to be seen and experienced by as many people as possible.

    At 800 Microsoft points, you are getting great value per table. Pinball Arcade is by far the most accurate representation of pinball there is and short of buying up the real things, you will not get a better option.

    A reminder and a reassertion. It establishes itself as a major player in a mostly monopolized space on XBLA. Farsight aims to release more real-world machines in digital form long-term, and for tournament play, and it's clear why: We're going to want to play these.

    This is probably the next best thing to playing real pinball. The controls are far superior to the iOS version of the game. Having real life boards to play with from Bally/Williams and Stern make such a difference compared to other pinball games with made up boards. This just can't compete with the kinetic energy of the real thing, but for what The Pinball Arcade is its really solid. Can't wait until more boards are added.… Expand
