It is of note that relatively few of Pinball FX’s tables are available in VR, even as DLC.

Secrets of the Deep is the most realistic of the 3, but also the least exciting. Mars is a bit abstract, but is fun once you get the hang of it. It’s a little silly, but the table is well laid-out, and it has a legacy feature where loot earned in one game carries over to future games, as does your character’s level. Pinball FX2 VR comes with 3 tables, and they range from good to excellent. If the ball pops back behind some complex furniture, object permanence kicks right in you don’t get confused about where the ball is in relation to everything else. You can really see the layout of the table.

Looking down at the 3D table in VR is about 500 times better than a flat table on a TV screen. But once you play in VR, it’s tough to go back to a flat screen. I still play digital pinball, however, because I am not a startup tech billionaire who can drop that kind of scratch on bulky machines that tend to need a lot of maintenance. It is exactly that feature that makes virtual pinball so difficult to pull off. Not a simulation, but a real ball hitting real targets and ricocheting off into real side drains making you real pissed off. What makes pinball great is its physicality unlike a video game, you can see physics in action. There is a classic pinball museum in Chicago, not so far from where I live, and I visit regularly because playing pinball is the best. You can have 3 tables active in the room space at any one time, however this is largely academic as you will only ever be playing one at a time (even if they let you play all three at once i doubt you have enough arms!) Pinball FX2 VR Pinball is great 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. Players can also participate in split-screen 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. It also features leaderboards and online multiplayer for up to four players. The game allows use of the Xbox Live Vision camera to operate the flippers and to video chat with Xbox Live opponents. Each of the game’s tables become more complex as the game advances, opening new paths and opportunities. Once the ball is in play the player controls the flippers and can nudge the machine to influence the path of the ball.

As with a traditional pinball machine, the player fires a steel ball onto the playfield using a plunger. Pinball FX 2 uses the same basic rules as a physical pinball machine, but in a virtual environment.

Pinball FX 2 is available with either time limited trials of all tables on Xbox platforms and Steam or full play with video advertisements for non-Star Wars tables on the current Windows 8 version, with the ability to unlock full tables via downloadable content. The Pasha table as it appears in the Xbox 360 version. Best pinball balls.You can have 3 tables active in the room space at any one time, however this is largely academic as you will only ever be playing one at a time (even if they let you play all three at once i doubt you have enough arms!) this does seem to be a disappointment to some and i confess i do not understand why (again i am only in possession of two arms and one head so perhaps those with multiple of them want to play more than one at once?) The area you play in is done well and you have easy access to the menu and leaderboards, what is really cool is that each table comes with props that float and animate around you while you play, the animations on the tables are also really well done and translate well into VR (i so want to play the portal table or see what they come up with for the deadpool table in VR Gameplay
