Marvel Pinball: Fantastic Four

So not too long ago Zen Studios released an add-on table to their Marvel Pinball game. The original game consists of tables for Spider-Man, Blade, Wolverine and Iron Man. This add-on welcomes the Fantastic Four in celebration of their 40th anniversary. Here's a shot of what the table looks like.
Setting aside the fact that I'm a big fan of Marvel, Zen Studios delivers great Pinball games. Based on reviews I've seen on Marvel Pinball, people are fans of their life-like physics system and how the game play feels. I like their tables because they bring you both a real physics system with animations that you couldn't get away with on a real pinball machine. They blend both worlds nicely to deliver quality pinball. I've never been good at it but I love me some pinball. Eventually I want to buy all the other creations Zen Studios have made in Zen Pinball(which happens to have a Street Fighter II table add-on that I'm dying to play). For now I'll stick to my Marvel tables. Towards the end of the month they are also releasing a Captain America table to coincide with the release of the new film. I'm looking forward to that both because it's Captain America and because I know Zen Studios will deliver another quality table. Here's the Fantastic Four table in action.
Note: Not sure why the video is cut in half. You can't see the full screen. Oh and there's multiple camera angles if you don't like how it looks there. The right side of the video is suppose to show a picture in picture type of thing of what's going on when the ball reaches the top part of the table.
