I also enjoyed one of Frictional Games' other seri...

Pinball FX – PC Review

Pinball FX is a name we have seen quite a bit in the Pinball gaming arena. However, recently Zen Studios have released Pinball FX with a ton of major updates since its previous release. A free-to-play Steam title with the option to add more tables at a cost, the question is - Is it worth it? Bringing An Arcade Classic Game Into The Digital Age I absolutely love a good pinball machine. Luckily I live in an area which has multiple arcades that have them available to play. I have been looking for a Pinball title for some time and always put off downloading Pinball FX. I think deep down I was always worried that it wouldn't live up to expectations. Gameplay Unfortunately, Pinball FX is really lacking in the storyline/narrative area. Thankfully they have focused on what actually makes a goo...
