[QUOTE="ODB123, post: 296126, member: 8007"] Let's see the figures. Someone needs to doublecheck this guy's math--last we checked, he couldn't count past 820. It would "seem?" Yeah, just like it would "seem" that your 6 year old chipset runs everything "perfectly" yet higher grade chipsets can't. It would "suggest?" "Key demographics?!?" "The whole thing?" This guy is constantly spouting nonsense and delusional speculation as if it were fact. He delivers the trash, all right. Too bad no one's around to take it out. I don't have a vested interest in FX3: I simply have no interest in fantasy based tables. What I have heard from those who are however, is that re-purchasing the "remastered tables" with a platform change would only incentivize zen and/or epic to keep forcing repurchases, perhaps even annually. Then, it's on to a subscription system where you have zero access to "your" or actually their tables, after 30 days unless you pony up indefinitely month after month. This notion of "remastering" is bogus however. It's not really bringing the tables any closer to reality because they don't exist in reality. Bringing "realistic" physics to imaginary tables makes absolutely no sense since there is no reference for how the table is actually supposed to play. It won't be "pro" and it won't be "realistic." The williams tables physics already differ radically from one volume and table to the next, so even there, there is no baseline of what "pro" is. All we know is that it allows for the same flipper tricks implemented in the williams tables, which may or may not be worth the $300 to $400 required to repurchase the "remasters." As far as the new lighting, many could barely tell the difference. At this point, zen's ability to bait and troll their customer base is more entertaining than the tables they are actually able to deliver, which are either few or none. [/QUOTE]
