From paulsemel.com: Like the game that inspired it, the Portal pinball table for Pinball FX 2 and Zen Pinball 2 is deceptively simple and very fun.
(CriticalIndieGamer) If Zen Pinball 2 tables reviews were pennies, I’d have … 5 pennies, or something. From that very first penny, I’ve championed the brilliance of what Zen Studios does with the arcade favourite. And now, with a silver coin of Zen reviews in my pocket, I can only echo what they do with the silver ball: awesome virtual pinball.
From the review: "Portal Pinball is definitely an excellent addition to the Zen Pinball 2 lineup, but that is based purely on its solid pinball mechanics and roots. The Portal aspect comes across as nothing more than cosmetic, which seems like a lost opportunity."
o. There’s always going to be that crowd that obsesses over all the little details, right down to the text on the scoreboard and the flipper accent color, with all the attention of an auteur pornography director trying to line up his million-dollar money shot. That’s where games like Pure Chess satisfy, and where games like Portal Pinball focus instead on simply being fun to play.
