cimerians Posted January 4, 2011 Author Share Posted January 4, 2011 Is it me or do I really suck at the Marvel tables? My god man...talk about constant drainage.

I do think I'm not all that cut out for "emulated" pinball or at least the Marvel tables. Arghhhhh! You're not the only one, definitely got a lot of bad bounces. I did end up trying something, I noticed it on the first pinball FX, and it looks like its true with this one too. I did a lot better at my girlfriend's place. What did I do different? I didn't play in 720p. I played in 480i, non widescreen. The game plays a bit different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just cant enjoy the table graphics as much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taskmaster99 Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 Those are cool controllers. Ive recently made the mistake of taking my old 20gig 360 and hooking it up for my girlfriend with her own account. she has since beaten all my scores to a pulp. I can hear her yell across the house " Look at my score on Bio Lab". Whatever. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cimerians Posted January 27, 2011 Author Share Posted January 27, 2011 Damn...I like those controllers. I play a lot on the PS3 version too cause there's some different tables. I like the feel of the 360 though. Anyone has a PS3 add me on that.... PSN: cimerians I got pretty high on Bullwinkle of all tables. Dont really like that one cause its an older board but I was playing last night. That BIO table is kind of cool with that little tilt maze mini game. LOL Imagine pinball games being like back then? With a side panel with a tilt maze? "Hurry Joe, jump on that tilt maze and flip it around!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moycon Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 Good question. I would like to know as well. anybody????? Here is what I found on Wiki about the multiplayer aspects of FX2: The game allows use of the Xbox Live Vision camera to operate the flippers and to video chat with Xbox Live opponents. It also features leaderboards and online multiplayer for up to four players. Players can also participate in split-screen multiplayer. <<<< (I'm assuming this is local multiplayer) Multiplayer games are won by being the first to achieve the set high score, which can be adjusted from 10 to 100 million points. Penalties can also be set for losing a ball with players losing anywhere from 5 to 25 percent of their score when a ball is lost. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Random Terrain Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 . . . 10 to 100 million points. . . I can't picture getting close to 100 million with these pinball games. You can easily get hundreds of thousands of points with the Williams Collection, but it's hard to get past 20 million with these games.

Cliff Friedel Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 . . . 10 to 100 million points. . . I can't picture getting close to 100 million with these pinball games. You can easily get hundreds of thousands of points with the Williams Collection, but it's hard to get past 20 million with these games. It lets you keep your score and you lose a little bit if you lose a ball. It can be a pain if someone sets it to 100 million (as even 5% is 4.5 million @ 90 million), but 25-50 is easily obtainable. I have played it a few times with random people. Would be cool to try it with people I know. If you guys see me on, send me a request and we can try it.
