Title: Pinball FX2
Post by: nCogNeato on November 09, 2010, 04:54:41 PM
Pinball FX2 is a "hub" game, similar to Hasbro's Family Game Night (http://360fahrenheit.com/fahrenh1_forum1/index.php?topic=1107.0) and the Game Room (http://360fahrenheit.com/fahrenh1_forum1/index.php?topic=756.0).  This means you can download the framework of the game for free, but have to pay for the tables separately.

One interesting feature I discovered is that if you already own the first Pinball FX on XBLA you can import those tables to the free Pinball FX2 hub for free.  Even better ... you can earn some achievements as well!

So download the Pinball FX2 game hub for free (http://marketplace.xbox.com/Product/Pinball-FX2/66acd000-77fe-1000-9115-d80258410a23?cid=SLink) and dust off those original Pinball FX tables for some score whoring.

Marvel - ous news for pinball fx 2 fans!

The first batch of dlc for zen studios excellent xbla title pinball fx 2 will be hitting the marketplace some time this december. The fully licensed four table pack entitled 'Marvel Pinball' will cost 800 microsoft points and like the others will only be playable through the pinball fx 2 hub, which like game room is free to download. It can be likened to the four table classic collection and the new pinball fx 2 core collection in that they are planning to release 4 or 5 dlc tables for it in the near future which will cost 200 points each. Each table will  be based on a separate marvel comics character, with the initial batch being based on - Spider Man, Iron Man, Wolverine, and Blade. The 5 dlc tables for the classic collection are already available as they were released over the life span of pinball fx 1 but they are planning to release new tables for the core collection as well starting sometime in the new year with the ps3 tables 'Mars' and 'Paranormal' hot favourites to be the first two available. All tables will have three new acheivements worth 50 points.
If you haven't downloaded the game yet you really are missing out and if your a marvel fan like me you would be a fool not to get the new pack, nine members of this site already have fx 2 and are having fun competing for high scores and the coveted pinball king title, why don't you join us?

I am a huge marvel fan and i can't wait to get my hands on the marvel pinball pack.
i reckon there will be load of marvel fans who now download pinball fx 2 just to get those tables! I hope it sells shitloads anyway, then they will continue to support the title with even more dlc. Besides they deserve to do well, they have made the best and most addictive pinball game ever in my opinion, and i have played bloody loads of em over the years, so well done zen studios

here is a bit of exciting news taken from the Pinball FX 2 website -

The first Pinball FX2 tournament is underway! Players have until December 7, 2010 to log the highest score possible in Secrets of the Deep.


How do I enter? Select the tournament icon in the Pinball FX2 menu and off you go.
How do I win? Get the highest score on Secrets of the Deep in tournament mode.
What do I win? The winner of the tournament gets Marvel Pinball!


i assume that whatever your highest tournament score is by the 7th of december will be your 'tournament bonus' when it's working out your wizard score, so it's worth giving it a go even if you don't have a chance of winning!

The marvel dlc tables have just been released and i must say they are excellent. Well designed, great voice overs and true to the comics they are a joy to play. My personal fave so far is the Blade table which features  day and night modes were you upgrade your powers and strength and buy new weapons and powers during the day and fight vampires and deacon frost at night. Spiderman and Wolverine are also both excellent, with Iron man - although good - being the weakest of the four. Pick the pack up now for just 800 points, and there will be more marvel tables on the way soon priced at 200 points each. Bring em on  :)

I've really been enjoying the MARS table.  I feel that it's a very forgiving playfield, but still has challenging missions.

Btw, if you select the tournaments panel in Pinball FX2, you'll see Zen has added a new entry: MARS tournament 4/29 - 5/13.
