BlahCade #156: Williams Pinball Volume 2: Release Retrospective
Now that Zen Studios have done a live stream of the new Volume 2 tables, we can talk about them!
Nov 19, 2018 · 4 min read
Zen Studios released a Twitch video right after they announced the Volume 2 packs. It let everyone get a look at the tables, which means that we can talk freely about the tables.
Join us for a deep-dive into some of the aspects of the tables in Volume 2, and listen to us speculate on what appeared to be a co-ordinated visit between Stern (Gomez and Eddie) to Budapest.
