Man oh man! I love pinball! The last time I ever played pinball on a Windows PC was 2002!! :eek: I love the new pinball game in Windows 8, I'm addicted. But theoretically, I should be able to advance to new and different tables from what I've found about the game on Xbox. Does anyone know how to?

The game is still under development for W8, so the Sorceror's Lair Table is the only one available ATM.

And I agree. It is addictive! My current highest score is ~29,500,000 :)

You can continue as long as you don't re-boot your system. It does not save your high scores after a restart.
