Let's not get into semantics, okay?

Decker

That's not semantics. It's excuses.

This is semantics.

Liver&Onions

Hope you enjoyed your short reign.

(sorry but it was the nerdiest threat I could come up with)

Liver&Onions

So, there's a Biolab tournament going on now - and that fucker, apatchofblue, who was always #1 in 1vs100 is KILLING it..with over a billion fucking points.

Also - apparently there's a new ORIGINAL table coming out at some point...the Zen Studios PR person just twat about it.

superfro

I know right? WTF?

Liver&Onions

It's insane. I mean, sure there's a way to get the bumpers to each be worth 1million per hit, but seriously. A billion?

orangecrush

Bah, it only took him about 20 min.

orangecrush

They reset the Rocky and Bullwinkle table. I have been ahead of L&O for a few days now and it feels good.

Liver&Onions

thanks for the heads up!

orangecrush

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.

Liver&Onions

How do you get under 2 million on that table?

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

orangecrush

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.

Spiderbite

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.

From the Zen Studios Facebook page:

"Make sure to visit the PlayStation Blog today around 5:00 PM EST for a big ZEN Pinball announcement! Any guesses as to what we are announcing?"

superfro

lol. PlayStation.

Liver&Onions

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...

orangecrush

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

Liver&Onions

it's up in the mid 800s still.

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.

Soooooo.... when is it hitting FX2 for the 360?

Decker

If Mars is any indicator : Nine months later.

Liver&Onions

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.

MasterofDVD

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.

I just sent you a friend request.
