    I love pinball fx2, loved it on the 360, love it on the 1. But where's the online multiplayer, apparently its coming soon (just like trials fusion made us wait and look at what happened there.) Some of the tables are really good and some are mediocre at best, i'll let you figure out which is which as it may be a matter of taste.

    local multiplayer is ok but the real draw of this game on the 360 was fun multiplayer with camera support. come on zen games that's what we want to see, utilise that Kinect cam.

    only a 7 for now but that may change if the multiplayer comes out soon, then it could go up 1 or even 2 points    … Expand

    Pinball FX 2 is a blast. Short bursts are the best way to play it, and the pinball tables are very fun and creative. My only complaint is that they are a little bit expensive.

    I got this game for free as an Xbox One Gold Member. If you like pinball this game is pretty good. I was surprised how much it felt like an old pinball machine. My left flipper on the first free board even seemed a little delayed. So I adjusted to it and was fine.

    Though it's free, this game is a HUGE grab for money. It gives you one free board, but the rest seem to be like $9.99. 1 or    I got this game for free as an Xbox One Gold Member.

So mom and dad make sure your kids accounts lock them out from making online purchases when they are playing this game. Or they may end up buying a couple hundred bucks worth of pinball "boards" that you may not want or ever use.

    Maybe there is a way to purchase things with points, instead of money but I haven't seen it yet. I just feel the prices for boards is way to steep. Only the most hardcore pinball person will probably pay $9.99 for the boards. Though other than the shameless grab for money, which can be blocked by your account settings, It should be a nice family game that kids-through grandparents can enjoy. It's probably more fun to play in a group setting where everyone can take turns and see who gets the top score.    … Expand

    A top pinball game to play with friends, but on your own it can get boring. [Issue#116, p.80]

    If you enjoy pinball, or are just curious about the game, Pinball FX2 is as close as you can get to the real thing.

    When all is said and done, Pinball FX2 for the Xbox One is easily the best version of the franchise thanks to its new interface — even if you have to deal with a hiccup or two when importing your titles.
