[QUOTE="shutyertrap, post: 199264, member: 134"] I'm with Sean, in that I accept it for what it is. That doesn't mean I'm happy about it, and I certainly wish it would evolve. It's interesting that FarSight had said the reason they didn't go with pre-rendered images was so the camera could go anywhere. And yet we are stuck with camera angles we can't change. We always talk about low hanging fruit FS could get to that would refresh the game some, and it is amazing how clueless they can be about it. The UI is single handedly the easiest way to stay relevant, and yet it gets ignored. The sad truth for me, in real life I'd probably play a semi busted WMS table over a nice Zacc. The same is kinda true for the apps. I have no emotional connection to Zacc (or Taito, Gottlieb, Atari, any EMs, or old Stern). I can't say I like any and all pinball, but I love most 80s and 90s era WMS machines. And that means I play TPA. I also hate playing on my phone, so I can't get into Zacc or Color Monkey like I can Zen and TPA. Maybe I'll change my tune when they come to PC. The shine has long since worn off TPA, and I don't froth at the mouth over new tables that come out. Okay, I frothed at TAF, but still. I truly hope that FarSight steps up their game, sees that they have to. I think they are distracted and jealous of the mobile in app purchase model that certain companies excel at, which is unfortunate. They have the diamond, but don't seem to know how to cut it. And diamonds aren't sold ounces at a time. [/QUOTE]
