It felt hollow to beat you with a score under 2 million. It is obvious people haven't been playing that table for a while. Apparently there was a glitch which allowed people to get insane scores.

How do you get under 2 million on that table?

I haven't fired up PFX2 since 2/2/11 :(

It was the first time I have played in over a month and I only had time for a couple of games. I'll work on it for you.

dammit. I had a pretty high score on the R&B table and it definitely wasn't from a glitch. I'd be lucky to repeat what I did before. I was working on my score but after taking the pinball king crown away from L&O, I just haven't ventured back to the game for a long while.

I have the crown now, sucka. The R&B scoring rules have been reduced by a factor of 10 for the ramp combos. The glitch they were talking about was the 500k to start, not some exploitation thing. it's not been dropped to 50k and moves up from there.

I have a 'feeling' it's an entirely new table for Zen tonight...

I'll have to see if I think I can beat your score now. I assume not.

Sorcerer’s Lair Table for ZEN Pinball Hits PSN Today, Watch the Exclusive Trailer

Pinball Wizards! Today we are unveiling Sorcerer’s Lair, a brand new ZEN Pinball table! It has been awhile since our last blog post, but we hope you have been enjoying Marvel Pinball and keeping your skills sharp on other ZEN Pinball tables. All eight of our studio pinball teams have been hard at work over the past few months developing new tables.

Set in an ancient Citadel that is controlled by an evil Sorcerer, you play as a brother and sister pair who find themselves caught in the Sorcerer’s spells and traps. It is up to you and your ghost sidekick, Whisper, to take down skeletons, spiders and ghosts as you try to defeat the Sorcerer and restore peace to the Citadel. This fantasy themed table is full of hidden modes and secret unlocks, so it will take some time to really discover the intricacies of Sorcerer’s Lair.

Zen Pinball: Sorcerer's Lair for PS3 (PSN)

As you have come to expect from every ZEN Pinball table, there is no shortage of interactive 3D objects, multiple modes of play, secret unlocks, online multiplayer competition – and three new trophies!

It is hard to believe that this is our SEVENTH expansion for ZEN Pinball! We really need to thank the PlayStation community for embracing our game on this level, and allowing us to continue work on a game we love so much.

Lair was in process of being made long before PFX2 from my records - so yeah, it has to be ported... I'd guess before 2012.

I'm bummed that so few people on my list actually play this game. Been trying to find some other folks to add so I can have more competition. Been slowly practicing my skills at all the tables and I'm getting a bit better each time.

He said he wanted competition.



So - Tell me all your thoughts on Mars. Are you really glad to be there?

Hey, wait :mad:

Once my kids get over their obsession w/ watching me play Costume Quest, I'll focus my attention on Pinball, if it makes you happy.

Just thought I'd drop in and mention that I picked up a gutted Genie (1979 Gottlieb widebody) cabinet this weekend to begin work on a 3-screen Visual Pinball cabinet. I'll be taking my time with it, but hope to have it finished within a year. The cabinet is in really good shape, so I'm off to a good start! I'll post updates here and there along the way.

Yeah, pix before, during and after would be awesome :)

Finally gave in and got my first PFX2 table - Mars. I went with the newest one because I'm still expecting some of the older tables to go on sale soon. The Marvel pack was up for a vote a few weeks ago so it's primed, plus there's like 17 Marvel movies hitting theaters this summer.

I feel justified in believing that this would become an insane addiction because, even with just the one table, it is.

And I bet you're totally beating Mr. Refreshing Orangecrush even after 1 day.

Re: The Ultimate Pinball Thread
 
The new Marvel table will have a trailer on Marvel.com this week FYI.

Any guesses?

pinata242 04-26-11 05:13 PM
Re: The Ultimate Pinball Thread
 
Why don't you just tell us and quit teasing.

Obvious are Thor and Captain cuz of the movies. X-Men seems out because they already have Wolverine. I doubt they'd feature a villain like Dr. Doom or whatever, but maybe Fantastic Four? That'd be topical...

Need some DC and Darkhorse love.

Related: I need another table having already bested everyone on my friends list on Mars. I don't really want to get a 4-pack yet because I'm a sucker for sales, but a standalone table fits the bill. What's the best single table for PFX2?

Earth Defense
Excalibur
Nightmare Mansion
Rocky & Bullwinkle
Street Fighter II

If I was just picking one off that list I would get that one.

My favorites from that list are Excalibur, then R&B. Both are excellent.

From Zen's Facebook page :

By now you have all figured out that PSN is not coming back up today and Sorcerer's Lair will be delayed. We've decided to counter-balance this bad news with some AMAZINGLY GOOD news: A new Marvel Pinball table trailer will debut THIS WEEK on Marvel.com. Stay tuned folks, this will be a good week yet!
Yes, L&O scooped this, but this is their official word.

pinata242 04-26-11 05:26 PM
Re: The Ultimate Pinball Thread
 
Then again maybe I should just cool my jets and see what the next Marvel table is since I'll likely be buying every new one upon release now.

There were more votes for R&B, so I got that. It is fun and very stingy on points. The 10M bonus for collecting all 6 sheep in that main BOXTOP mode really helps.

I'll probably get Excalibur next. This is a sad addiction and I knew this was going to happen to me!
