[QUOTE="Citizen, post: 290958, member: 6915"] Real pinball machines weren't ESRB rated and social media wasn't around to tell everyone what to be mad about, so outrage over little Timmys being corrupted by pinball was relegated to isolated incidents of soccer moms noticing something that offended them, which probably didn't happen often because most parents aren't going to pay much attention to their kid playing a pinball machine (although I'm sure some little Timmys did get in trouble for playing Playboy). That said, I also think some of you are confusing "people having a problem now" with "staying within the confines of the ESRB ratings." People largely don't give any more of a damn now than they did in the 80s and 90s. But again, the tables weren't being submitted for ratings then. Zen picked a rating they want to stay within for FX3, and unfortunately it's lower than how the ESRB sees the original, unmodified versions of these tables. [/QUOTE]
