Ok...so...have had this for 360 for about 2 weeks now. Theatre of Magic is probably my favorite table, even though it can be cheap sometimes with the ball heading DIRECTLY DOWN THE MIDDLE OF THE TABLE after hitting the trunk, which you have to do about 300 times per game...
But, what's the deal with Black Hole? I want to love this table, but I completely and utterly suck at it. 95% of the time when I get the ball up the left ramp and into the lower playfield, I will lose the ball without getting the gate open. That lower playfield really seems to be the way to achieve some killer scores too, once you've got your multipliers up.
The problem is, I can't see due to the camera angle what I'm supposed to hit to make the gate open. Is there a way for me to change the angle on 360 so I can actually see more than just the flippers and the one pop bumper?

I hate Black Hole too (all versions). There are other ways to open (and close) the gate from the upper playfield, just read "Re-Entry" the instructions in the games table menu. I haven't played on the 360, but the angle you are seeing is the same you would see if you were standing at the real table.

Really? Yikes, I'd consider that a design flaw, for sure. All I can see is the edge of the pop bumper and the flippers. I really have no clue what's going on anywhere else in that lower playfield. Knowing now the original table was like that too, I'm probably done even trying that table anymore. Thanks.
