[QUOTE="shutyertrap, post: 265244, member: 134"] Zen has the polish, no two ways around it. And I've gotta say, with FX3 and the matchup or tournament options, I've been playing it way more than ever before. However, I agree that the main advantage TPA has is with both nostalgia and truly tested pins. Nothing beats seeing what an actual ball will do on an actual table. Heighway Pinball found this out with Alien, where the whole thing was done on CAD and never went through whitewood, but then had to be tweaked all the same. Another issue Zen has is with their DMD. They throw up all this info about the shot you should make next, but never put the ball in a capture situation so you can actually read what the DMD says! Drives me nuts. I have the same issue with Jersey Jack Pinball in that their screen has so much info on it, you can't just do a quick glance up and comprehend. Interesting experiment would be to find someone with no real world pinball experience, and then see if they have a preference of Zen or TPA. [/QUOTE]
