[QUOTE="Sean, post: 281821, member: 643"] Got the pack and they’re pretty decent; Whoa Nellie appeals to my old-timey sensibilities. Given Zen would likely take a couple of years to leverage the Stern licence (not to mention other licensing issues with content holders like CBS/Paramount for Star Trek) and no guarantees we’ll see what’s currently in TPA from them, I’m content to keep buying the packs - especially if they keep doing the SS/EM machines I enjoy most. I may eventually double-dip on Zen versions of tables, but I’m under no illusions PFX3 will ever be a “one-stop-shop” for pinball sims. I’m kind of surprised to still see a level of dislike/dismissal of Farsight here. Their machines are still very playable and NO pinball sim will ever feel like the real thing: I don’t care if you have a monitor mounted in a cabinet and use arcade buttons or VR goggles on your face. The idea that there is a level of perfection that can be achieved in digital reproductions is illusory, so I’m just happy to play something that looks and sounds like an experience that’s become pretty rare for me otherwise.
