      I had a topic go 33 replies and well over a 1000 views but it was a topic of negativity! It's one page back!

        Yeah, It seems to be much easier to get people interested in the negative. We could start a TV show "The Real Pinball Players of Zen Studios" with lots of drama and market it to Bravo. I'll be the guy that is really good at shooting the ramps but always forgets to get the Kickback activated.

              Just got in from a twelve hour night shift and had to read the poem again. Now I can play a few tables.

                  Those 12 hour shifts can be rough. I hope the poem puts you in the Pinball Wizard Zone.

                  Thanks buddy, and thanks for all of your work on the table guides. I'm studying the Zen Classic pack and Epic Quest. Is one competed for Excalbur?

                      Awesome! I think I'll be going with those 6 tables to start. I'm on the fence about Plants/Zombies, Earth Defense, and MARS, but I have a feeling they will be in my collection before it is over.

                          I'll have to give it a stronger look then. The bottom of the field looked very bare comparatively. But maybe less is more.

                            Mars is a great table, the lower play field is open but missions come into play here. Targets appear all over this area in random order then when you make the shot a space machine picks up your ball, then on to the next target till you make I think five or six for mission complete. Mars is one of the first zen tables I played a few years ago, and like sttc said its one of my favs also.

                              It looks like I will be getting 4 to 6 out of the gate, depending on the price structure. In everyone's experience (which probably varies from person to person) how many tables do you like to get and play through to be decent at before you pick up more?

                                Lol. Well I've never had a choice before. We got 4 tables for each set on the 3ds. I'm a Zen slappy so ill download them all and concentrate on one at a time. Of course that's when we finally get the dlc. On my android I got all but two and those I already had but they were on sale at 99 cents so it wasn't a big deal.
