Message: <blockquote data-quote="Mark W**a" data-source="post: 85016" data-attributes="member: 1196">I think what pisses people off the most about this is that there is no table-balance here.  When you release a table like say, Central Park (which I really love, btw) the companion table needs to be something very strong, like a good DMD game.  Which is exactly what happened: Big Shot was accompanied by the awesome 1998 DMD Scared Stiff, Central Park paired with the equally good 1999 DMD Cactus Canyon.It needed to be paired with a strong re-release.  Tee'd Off would have been perfect.  Or even Victory or Sorcerer.  Centaur is an amazing table.  But had the companion table been Goin Nuts people would have had the same issue.  Early 80's games, no matter how good, are still shallow compared to late 80's and 90's tables.  Pairing it with Pin*Bot was a smart move, and struck a perfect balance.  Here we have a table which is not in the same league as Centaur to begin with, paired with a game that is BY FAR, the worst pinball game from either the Williams or Gottlieb collections... let alone comparable to Pin*Bot...So had Flight 2K been paired with Sorcerer I'd have had ZERO complaints this month.  Likewise had Goin Nuts been paired with say, Road Show, I'd be totally happy.  But as it stands, this is by far, the weakest table pack release ever on the service and I'm totally skipping it.  I guess I should be happy Farsight saved me money because like I said, had these been paired with decent machines, I'd have bought them.  Oh well.</blockquote>
