The magical day has arrived. Zen Studios today dropped three packs of Williams Pinball tables as DLC for Pinball FX VR. Now, to be clear, the initial release of Pinball FX VR was already pretty sizable, and the tables that Zen had already released have been keeping me quite busy since the game's release a little over a month ago. I've been merrily unlocking cosmetics and goodies, chasing high scores and earning trophies with tremendous good cheer.
Now that I have had a bunch of time to deck out my pinball basement, I can decisively say that Pinball FX VR is my favorite VR game of all time. I am not kidding. I have definitely spent more time in my pinball basement than I have in any other VR game in the history of the medium. The entire experience lights up the pleasure centers of my brain like...well...like a pinball machine.
But, great things can always get better, right? And today, Zen Studios expanded my horizons immensely by adding an entire new room and corridor to my pinball basement to house nine new tables. It's like going to sleep at night and having elves come in and repair all your shoes - and also add nine new pinball tables to your pinball basement. Here's what it looks like now:
So of course, this means that my Gaming Nexus pinball buddies Jeremy Duff and Joseph Moorer and I have to engage in an all out war for pinball supremacy. I have thrown down the gauntlet for an all out score battle to the death, and have set it to repeat.
The terms:
Each week, we will pick a new table and begin again. This guarantees that we have at least nine weeks of uninterrupted fun (and of course, the Tomb Raider tables will show up in there somewhere). It will further give each of us time to engage properly with all of the tables in our collections, making sure we squeak every drop of entertainment out of what is becoming one of the best products ever dropped onto the video game ecosphere.
Here is where we stand as of 1:00 PM EST today. I am Freezedried72. Duff is Duff3C. Joseph is a loser, and hasn't even started yet.
See you on the leaderboards, chumps.
