    They know traditional pinball well enough to design a great table, and they know how to complement a table videogame with gimmickry without upstaging the gameplay.

    Pinball FX2 is one of the most accurate and realistic pinball simulations I have played. If you appreciate the creation, design, and gameplay of pinball machines, you will get many finger-blistering hours from Pinball FX2.

    It's a blast when you have people over, because everybody knows how to play Pinball, and Pinball FX 2 is bar none, the best I've played without a coin-slot.

    This ain't your grandma's pinball. The game is very addicting for the ancient pastime of pinball. It blends in the old age pinball with new stuff. While it does have more bells and whistles, the new effects add more functionality which make this game such a joy to play. It can get a little expensive, but is worth it. Everything feels fluid and polished. You are guaranteed to have a great time with friends. The graphics are much improved from the predecessor and the themed boards are really interesting. Who would of thought that Ms. Splosion Man would have her own? I think everyone should at least get the base game for 800 pts which will get you 4 really good tables. They are wildly different even for pinball to keep things less repetitive. To make things even more addictive, they have awards once you obtain an achievement once obtained in the in-game stories as well as a Wizard score that sums up your total from all of your tables.

  2. If you have any interest in pinball games this is the one to buy. The original Pinball FX was a little disappointing since its graphics and table design were a little lacking. If you compare the old tables to the new ones there is no comparison. Colors and table layout are much better and allow for a much better experience. The game allows you to play those old tables as well so a very good deal. New tables are 200 points each. Try it out you won't be disappointed.... Expand

  3. Pinball FX 2 is not so much a game its a platform. You can download it for free and play trials of any table you want up to a specific point limit. The thing is the game is so addictive you'll need to get hold of as many tables as possible. Anybody who owned Pinball FX can download the original tables for free (and those who purchased the individual dlc for Pinball FX will get those tables free too). It when playing these tables that the differences between the original and this game become apparent. On top of the impressively overhauled and improved graphics, the physics of the gravity on the ball is much more realistic. The four brand spanking new tables are also a few steps up from the original offerings. They're more complicated tables, with more minigames and special fx that you cold ever expect to be on a pinball table, but they never lose realism. On top of the tables there is an nice added social aspect to the game. Get a number of friends who also play pinball fx 2 and you'll get on screen notifications when you're nearing and surpass their high-score. You also have local split scene multiplayer and xbox live multiplayer. All in all Pinball FX2 is a package you can't fault. Expand
