[QUOTE="RJB, post: 281180, member: 2564"] My major concern is that if Zen are censoring artwork on tables like Fish Tales then I dread to think how much censoring will be going on with future table releases, there are tons of superb tables in TPA that I can already see Zen having a problem with if they decide to stick with their current attitude, in fact I'm sure some classic tables won't even see a release as to much will need to be changed/butchered for Zen to release them, the best way forward in my eyes is for Zen to make it optional somehow so players or parents etc. can decide whether to allow the original artwork and sounds/voices, but just cutting things out altogether is a major error, all these classic pinball tables "[U][/U][B]deserve[/B]" to be kept as original as possible. As for FS keeping up with Zen, right now Zen have a long, long way to go to catch FS, FS have some really cool licensed tables by Stern that Zen "currently" will never have as long as FS keep hold of the Stern license, with exclusive tables like Ghostbusters, Frankenstein, Last Action Hero, Starship Troopers to name just a few off the top of my head. Also with Zen's current attitude with censoring tables, classic pinball tables like Scared Stiff seem impossible to be made for PFX3, and they'd probably have issues releasing tables like Dracula, Gorgar and Jackbot for example because of the themes of each table. Finally you also have licensed tables like Star Trek TNG, T2, Twilight Zone, Dr Who and Addams Family in TPA, I'm not sure how easy Zen will find it to get these licensed again when you consider FS had to go the Kickstarter route for all of these, so Zen may not be prepared to pay out huge license fees for all these classics. These are just some of the reasons why TPA still has plenty of life left in it, FS just need to keep working on improvements wherever possible in terms of table bugs/glitches. One thing I 100% agree with you on is that competition is always a good thing for the customer, so hopefully over time both FS & Zen will continue to raise the bar in their pinball games, but, like you said only time will tell;) [/QUOTE]
