Go take the Zen Studios tour! I think they offer it in Fridays and it includes admission to the Budapest Pinball Museum.

The real question is, do you still wanna play pinball after that? :D I know when I finally got all the wizard goals in TPA (this was probably up to season 5), I was done with the game for a month. And then more tables came out, which I felt I'd get to in good time, and then I tried opening the...

Zen was willing, issue was the licensors. For me Jaws isn’t Jaws without his theme. Just call the table ‘Great White’ for how generic the music is.

That was a most excellent article! Thank you for finding that. In particular I found this quote interesting... "Moreover, there are times when an initial license, depending on who your music consultant is/was, can cover 'future or now unknown platforms.' This generally is a good faith gesture...

In our podcast, I suggested that it’d be cool, though costly, to be able to pay for DLC on an individual table basis to get the actual film score music in Zen originals rather than the generic music. I mean Jaws is not Jaws without that theme. Jurassic Park is sorely missing that oomph from...

That really sucks.

Yeah, so when the last pack dropped, I had 350 coins in reserve. Took a little over a month to earn all 3 table's parts, after which I started earning coins once more. Of course having done the upgrades, I was once more back down to 50. I have since gotten myself back up to 464 coins by trying...

Mel announced this in our last interview with him.

Once you have all the parts, it’ll start giving you coins instead. Most of the time you’ll get one coin per challenge, but the ‘hard’ versions often give a few more.

Hmmm, I might have thrown the 2 Alvin Gs in there

I didn't watch the video, but I'd probably pick that book too. There's 3 specific tasks for the tournament, the dragon egg challenge (sounds like a good multiball opportunity), the underwater rescue (sounds like a hurry up mode), and the maze with traps (shoot the flashing ramps in a certain...

FarSight only made 24 Gottlieb recreations. So either ToyShock puts the remaining 12 on version 2.0, or I think they put all 24 on there. ToyShock is not going to want to keep manufacturing v1.2 once 2.0 comes out, and the software costs nothing to include.

I thought I heard "12 to 24", which would essentially just be the entire Gottlieb collection. Makes sense, if you are making a video backbox then there's no reason you can't just put the alpha scoring on that. That will also streamline manufacturing so that the only thing they are having to...

That seems like it was specifically made for DMD display!

We’ve been reading the books out loud between me, my wife, and the teen. Currently on book four.

Take this momentary advantage to collect coins. You will now always get at least one as part of the 3 card flip. Try collecting at least 100, ideally 300, before the next pack and then the ONLY thing you’ll have to worry about is parts, which will be super easy to collect as there’ll be limited...

I watched Face/Off last night, and it’s been years despite me actually owning it. What a 90’s movie! I mean the camera style, score, pacing, so if that era. I love John Woo, but his explosive bullets and slo-mo doves are a bit ridiculous now. And then there’s the whole concept, face swapping...

I like Ragnarok a lot. Miles better than the other 2 Thor movies and Jeff Goldbloom absolutely steals the show. Nothing wrong with those other three you need to watch either.

One of Benicio’s first credits was in License To Kill! He was good even back then.

We would rotate each get together for who got to pick the movies, always a double feature. What some people never understood was the concept of a movie being so bad it becomes good. A bad movie just gets boring after a half hour and the enthusiasm in the room falls off a cliff. My three best...
