PBFX2 getting zen classic pack I say petition more for XBOX tables

[tenorhero]

As I say above the Core Pack really is very good but most of the others date from FX1 days and are very dated. The tables have come on a lot since then.

It may be dated but playing the older FX1 tables would be pretty cool IMO. Any table that I haven't played before would be welcome. Heck even in TPA there are many players that prefer the classic Black Hole, Gorgar, and Big shot over the modern table like Twilight Zone and others.

I'm surprised that some people are actually whining about this.
Personally I think it is fantastic news that Zen is working on bringing these tables to us. This is probably the most requested thing I've seen on this forum and we finally get some news it may happen and we have... people upset about it because 360 might get the Zen tables first?

Seriously?

I think people are upset because 360 is getting our tables and Zen has not announced that any PFX table will be making its way to the PS3. That means 360 has 10 or 11 exclusive tables and we have 1 left (NGS2). Some of us here are interpreting this news that Zen will probably give us some of the tables. Others are interpreting this as 360 gets our toys and keeps their own as well. The second scenario is the one that makes some jealous.

I really like that toy sharing analogy. Though I do play my PS 3 more, I do enjoy playing my 360 for Gears of War, PBFX 2 and other XBLA exclusives. The few things that have always bugged me about microsoft have been various reports that they want developers to release multisystem downloadable games either at the same time, or first on XBLA. Or how much they charge for patches for games on their system as reported by the developers of Fez, as well as Farsight for Pinball Arcade. It just seems that since they have a larger installed user base, they appear to dangle that fact in front of smaller developers. I know it's all about business, and a lot of it's probably hearsay. It will be interested how it all carries over to the next generation, especially with the the competition of tablets, smartphones, and Valve wanting a living room style PC for playing games cutting into the console market. I like that there are very few 3rd party console exclusives at the end of this generation, other than timed DLC.

I always regarded Microsoft's treatment of users, developers, and competition with respect to the 360 as pretty cold. I can only imagine what abuses of power they'll take next gen if they gain an even larger lead over their competitiors. I'm keeping away from next generation because i'm outgrowing most games and I don't like where the industry is headed. I'll keep picking up the tables for PS3 as long as they continue to release them and i'll still have a Mac/iPad which hopefully Zen will continue to support. Don't let me down Zen .

And that's the bottom line.

I'm all for the 360 players getting the ports and A Christmas Miracle.Good for them.But the PS3 players are once again getting a raw deal and fall even further behind in the table count.It is not fair nor balanced.Zen prefers the Xbox community.It is what it is, can't change it but will certainly not approve either.
