[QUOTE="pinballmonster, post: 296929, member: 8047"] I'm obviously a customer and therefore immediately sympathetic but you can only cry "the sky is falling" so many times before your credibility becomes suspect. 1. the sub-title is clearly wrong: you don't "have to" repurchase their tables 2. additionally, you don't "have to" repurchase ALL of their tables. As a matter of fact, you don't have to buy a single table, much less all of them. Zen is in no way shape or form engaging in coercion, nor do they "force" anyone to buy all of their tables or even a single table for that matter. They ARE offering multiple free tables each day yet for some reason this fact is buried halfway through the article. The article could just as well have made this tidbit the story's headline: free pinball indefinitely! 3. The quoted $150 price tag is misleading. There is a 20% discount if you spend $100 worth of tickets, and an additional 33% off the first week for all new titles. As far as zen's previous customers' criticisms, they all acknowledge that many if not all other gaming companies are engaging in exactly the same behavior that zen is. They say they want zen to fail to teach them a lesson, but if the ticket system is their target of attack, they must want THE ENTIRE GAMING INDUSTRY TO FAIL if every company uses this system. How does the complete and utter collapse of the gaming industry benefit gamers?!? How does the collapse of zen benefit virtual pinball fans?!? The article is extremely misleading, probably deliberately so. The lack of facts, the lack of logic, the hyper emotionalism make gamers look utterly ridiculous. [/QUOTE]
