Portal Pinball--Pinball FX2

I purchased the newest pinball table for the excellent Pinball FX2, but had neglected to play it due to dedicated tons of time to The Witcher 3.  It has sat in unplayed since I purchased it almost three weeks ago.  I finally decided to give it a spin and I really enjoyed what I saw.  If you're a fan of Portal then it's definitely something you would like.

Portal Pinball Table for Pinball FX2

The table itself features a lot of cool objects.  The two bumpers at the bottom of the table near the flippers have reflective cubes on them.  If you shoot a specific target three times a laser will light up and reflect off those cubes.  Depending on which way the cubes are angled you could end up with some of the different colored gels spraying onto the table.  If you get lucky enough to get it just right you can hit the mini-GLaDoS on the upper left side and earn some bonus points.

One other cool feature is the little Chell figure on the bottom left.  When you open up a mission to complete test chambers she will move around the playing field through portals that she shoots.  There are also portals that appear on the table itself and into which you can shoot the ball and have it appear on a top ramp.  This can be a little confusing and I still haven't quite gotten used to it.

The missions themselves are actually based around the concept of completing test chambers and involve shooting specific targets.  In the short amount of time in which I played I didn't manage to complete any but got fairly close.  I did manage to shoot targets to unlock Atlas and P-Body figures who stand on a ramp on the top right part of the table.  Once both robots are unlocked there is a multi-ball with many opportunities for jackpots.

Like Portal, GLaDoS mocks you throughout the game.  Wheatley also encourages you as you play.  I really like this table because of all these small features.

The Steam Summer Sale has officially started!  Be on the lookout for any great deals.  This table would definitely be a worthwhile purchase in the sale.
