Pinball multi player

Am I missing something or is there no 2,3,4 player offline mode in that
pinball game on XBLA?

Best I can come up with is to compare scores at the end of the game.

Is it just me or is the ball pysics hopeless? I was looking forward to
it coming out when I heard about it, but turned it off in disgust after
about 10 seconds playing it. I remembered more realistic pinball games
on the Amiga 15 years ago.

No multiplayer at all.

Really? I found the game to be quite good and worth the $10...

The ball seems a bit heavy but I haven't noticed anything wierd
either.

The second table is crap though, I hate pinball games with short main
playing areas for the sake of having an upper area.

Agreed. But the other two tables are fantastic...

It'd be alright if the upper area was any good. How that table made it
through playtesting I'll never know.

Agents is easily the best table of the three currently available.

Must admit i thought that when i first played it, but when you get
into the mindset that it's trying to mimic skateboarding then it does
'kinda' make sense.... a bit..
